3D printer service

Features

Nagase Polishing Equipment's 3D printer service

  • Widely applicable from soft metal such as aluminum to super hard material.
  • Small quantity production is possible.
  • Manufacturing process and cost can be reduced.
  • The integrated structure can reduce the number of parts.

Features 1

Freedom of design

Possible to create shapes that could not be achieved with conventional cutting or casting methods.

It is possible to create shapes that are difficult to make with molds, and complex shapes that are impossible with conventional manufacturing methods such as cutting and casting.

  • Hollow, mesh parts:Significant weight reduction
  • Non-machinable parts: Developing products that are light and durable with optimized strength and rigidity through analysis.

Possible to mold with a variety of steel types (materials)

It is now possible to model with a variety of metal materials such as maraging steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, Inconel, and pure copper.

Possible to mold with a variety of steel types (materials)

Possible to manufacture multiple parts in one piece

Integral manufacturing reduces assembly man-hours, welding points, and improves maintainability.

Possible to manufacture multiple parts in one piece

Electron beam metal lamination equipment enables the creation of pure copper

Coil for induction hardening, hollow channel structure is also possible.

Features 2

Cost performance

Reduce prototype production time and initial costs during development

Since it is possible to directly shape the final product, there is no need for prototype molds (wooden molds, sand molds, metal molds).
Along with this, the ultimate high-mix, low-volume production is possible by reducing mold production time and initial costs.

  • Since it can be manufactured directly without the need for a mold, costs can be lowered when producing a large variety of products in small quantities such as prototyping.
  • Significant weight reduction is also possible, reducing the amount of material to be disposed of.

Features 3

Efficiency

Achieved a reduction in the number of parts by integrating the product shape

The number of parts that require assembly can be reduced, reducing the burden of assembly processes and parts management.

Reduce prototype production time and initial costs during development

Since it is possible to directly shape the final product, there is no need for prototype molds (wooden molds, sand molds, metal molds).
Along with this, the ultimate high-mix, low-volume production is possible by reducing mold production time and initial costs.

Achieving the supply of discontinued parts

With a 3D printer, it is possible to print parts that are no longer in production in a short time without using molds.

Features 4

Weight saving

Bionic design, lattice shape, etc. are possible to create shapes that are difficult to realize to reduce weight.

Since complex shapes such as hollow structures can be manufactured in one piece, it is also possible to reduce the weight of complex structurally optimally designed products.

Weight saving

Features 5

Shorterning of delivery time

Since complex shapes such as hollow structures can be manufactured in one piece, it is also possible to reduce the weight of complex structurally optimally designed products.

  • Development time is shorter than conventional construction methods.
  • Simultaneous prototyping of various shapes saves time.
  • The manufacturing process is shortened by reducing the number of parts.
  • We can directly manufacture complex shapes that cannot be created using conventional methods such as cutting and casting.
