3D/Additive Manufacturing

F144: QC Steps Towards Polymer 3D Printing Standardization & Production

From design to distribution, 3D scanning to vapor smoothing, and everything in between, our quality processes play a major role in the entire product lifecycle for metal and polymer additive manufacturing. We set a strict standard on quality and are willing to share some of that process with you. This will include our approach to product development and process control and how our laboratory equipment enhances our ability to control the inputs and outputs of our production processes. We will also discuss the process of establishing connections between laboratory findings and the optimization and repeatability of production equipment. Explore some of our processes to control our manufacturing equipment for repeatable quality. Understand the connection between 3D scanning, printer efficiency, and part orientation optimization. Evaluate the different ISO standards put in place for low, medium and large volume production requests. Learn more about our state-of-the-art Quality Control laboratory and capabilities.
