SLS 3D printing for tooling: faster development, no waiting on every fixture
Custom inserts, jigs and auxiliary equipment, printed in days. Instead of every missing fixture slowing development down, we print it right away and check the shape before expensive steel exists.
Let the tooling wait on you, not the other way around
Check before steel
Test the insert shape and part fit on a printed part before you invest in an expensive steel tool.
Fixtures in days
We print auxiliary equipment, guides and jigs right away, no ordering, no long lead times.
Fewer stoppages
Every printed fixture is one obstacle less between tool development and the first part.
What we print for tooling & plastics
Inserts, fixtures, gauges and support equipment for the toolroom. SLS 3D printing shortens the path from idea to usable fixture, without waiting on an outside shop for every single piece.
Mold inserts
Inserts for small-batch injection and testing geometries before steel.
Jigs and guides
Repeatable jigs for precise machining and assembly.
Auxiliary equipment
Fixtures, supports and aids for a faster workflow in the tool shop.
Inspection aids
Measuring and inspection fixtures for checking parts.
Product prototypes
Plastic parts to test form and function before series production.
PA 2200 for precise tooling, PA 3200 GF for wear-resistant inserts
PA 2200 gives rigid, dimensionally stable inserts and jigs with high precision. We use PA 3200 GF where inserts and fixtures face greater wear or elevated temperatures.
PA 2200
High strength, chemical resistance, dimensional stability and biocompatibility. The most commonly used material for functional parts.
- Tensile strength 48 MPa
- Elongation 18 %
- HDT 157 °C
PA 3200 GF
High stiffness, wear and temperature resistance - with the repeatability of industrial printing.
- Tensile strength 51 MPa
- Elongation 9 %
- HDT 157 °C
Repeatable fixtures for every station
Once a fixture works, we repeat it without deviation: the same geometry for every workstation in the shop.
