Reprint worn tools the same shift
Custom-fit tools that locate and secure a part for machining, welding, or assembly.
Repeatable positioning tools that keep a job accurate from the first unit to the thousandth.
Purpose-built go/no-go tools that verify a part meets tolerance, on the line, without a CMM.
Shields that protect a sensitive component, or a surface, from an adjacent process.
End-of-arm tooling and machine components that keep automated lines running.
Custom carriers, holders, and brackets that keep the floor organized and parts moving.
The default for jigs, fixtures & welding set-up tools that need repeated impact resistance.
High stiffness for locating pins, gauges, and tools that must resist deflection under load.
For fixtures near heat sources, thermoforming clamps, or under-hood test rigs.
Static-dissipative tooling for handling sensitive electronics and PCB assemblies.
Model the tool in CAD, or 3D scan an existing part to reverse-engineer a fixture around it.
Load the matched resin and print — most tooling parts finish in under two hours.
Automated post-processing brings the part to full mechanical strength, ready for the floor.
Install the tool and save the file to a digital inventory — reprint on demand when it wears.
A fixture that locks every possible movement isn't safer — it's harder to build accurately and more likely to fight itself under load. Aim for just enough contact points to locate and hold the part reliably, no more.
Where a machined fixture might need three components bolted together, a printed one can often be a single body. Fewer seams means fewer places for debris to collect and fewer failure points.
Printed parts get their stiffness from geometry, not mass. Reinforcing ribs and rounded fillets add rigidity in the direction that matters without inflating print time or material cost.
Printed threads wear quickly under repeated bolting. Brass threaded inserts or a nut pocket hold up far longer in a jig that gets clamped and unclamped every shift.
A gearbox component manufacturer cut jig lead time and cost by roughly 90% moving from outsourced milling to in-house SLA printing.
A weld-line changeover fixture that used to require reprogramming downtime was printed in three hours on a Form Series printer, ready the same shift.
A precision-instrument maker printed custom testing brackets to hold delicate assemblies securely during functional inspection.
