3D models are used for everything from concept creation to production planning, allowing design engineers to speed and improve the development process.
The automotive industry has historically used rapid prototyping as an integral tool in the design process. The fast-paced design cycles in the automotive industry require a rapid prototyping solution that can produce almost any geometry with a variety of material properties, quickly and
cost effectively.
Our 3D plaster/epoxy models enable design teams to efficiently
create various product concept ideas early in the design process, enabling multiple renditions to be visualized and critiqued by a variety of functional teams within an organization. These parts are less expensive
than our ABS parts which make them ideal when multiple changes are made.
Automotive design engineers are able to conduct functional testing on parts made from our ABS process. These parts can be machined, drilled and tapped. Additionally, they are durable enough for airflow, vibration and other rigorous testing.
Production planning in automotive companies use models and prototypes to walk
through the product line and ensure that they have the right tools at each station to complete production in the most efficient way possible.
