Senop, a specialist in optronic solutions for the security and defense industry, has used 3D printing both to create prototypes and to manufacture end products. Read what benefits 3D printing has brought to them.

Manufacturing production equipment parts using 3D printing has brought Orion cost savings, efficiency, and completely new opportunities. The basis for the long-standing partnership with 3D Formtech is joint process development, seamless everyday cooperation, and strong trust in expertise.

When spare parts are difficult or even impossible to obtain, 3D printing can be an excellent solution. Borealis approached this challenge with 3D Formtech using reverse engineering, which involves creating a digital 3D model of the pre-existing part to be replaced in order to 3D print a new, even more durable part.

Metabar® Technology Oy develops future technology services that help improve production efficiency in various industries. Metabar's innovative technology is based on a patented, intelligent compressed air and fluid control system, in which intelligently designed, 3D-printed metal nozzles play a key role.

Sulzer is a world leader in fluid technology and chemical processing applications. They specialise in energy efficient pumping, mixing, separation, purification, crystallisation and polymerisation technologies for all types of liquids.

“Technologies have come a long way in the last few years! If the same part had been produced by injection molding, it would have required more design attention to the constraints and laws of the mold. In addition, the mold would have cost thousands of euros to make, and the product would have taken about a year to be completed.”

“The biggest benefit is definitely time. 3D printing allows us to speed up the testing required for product development, which also speeds up other processes. It also allows us to get production up and running quickly by printing the parts we want and making sure they are in the right shape, function and design.” Read more about iLOQ Oy's experiences of cooperating with 3D Formtech!

The close cooperation between Grundium and 3D Formtech has lasted for years. 3D printing has been part of the Grundium microscope scanner since its development. The protective cover under the WiFi antenna of the device is 3D printed, and the 3D printed cover of the overview camera has made the camera lens more visually striking. 3D printed parts are also used inside the machine.

Harvia’s collaboration with 3D Formtech started a couple of years ago. ”We needed a small 3D printable part for the proximity sensor on a door switch, and an anchoring part for its receptacle. It was a brand new product. I was already familiar with 3D printing, so I contacted 3D Formtech directly”, says Joonas Hintikka, Product Designer at Harvia.
