3D printing in plant engineering

In plant engineering, special customer requests often have to be implemented, which quickly become costly in development and production.
This is where additive manufacturing in plant engineering provides the perfect support.
The 3D printed components are used not only for display samples or functional prototypes but also as end products.

From prototype to series production at BMF GmbH

Due to the multifunctionality of the Smart Surface Control technology developed specifically by BMF GmbH, a multitude of different components are required, some of which require complex manufacturing. This previously required a long production lead time and complex warehousing.

Customer requests, such as special fixtures, could only be implemented to a limited extent. The goal was to replace as many machine components as possible with additively manufactured components, minimize inventory, and streamline or shorten production processes.

“Special customer requests can be realized in the shortest possible time and at low cost.”
– Mark Krause, Technical Sales, BMF GmbH

3D printing has become indispensable

Kessler Plastics GmbH has set itself the goal of offering its customers better and faster access to prototypes without having to produce new, costly injection molds. Development cycles should be accelerated or even reduced. Furthermore, the demands on prototypes are particularly high – the goal was to produce dimensionally accurate prototypes of top-quality, comparable properties to the subsequent injection-molded material, making the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of future series production perfectly predictable.

“We not only save time, but also resources, materials and therefore money.”
– Lars Oster, Head of Organization and IT, Kessler Plastics GmbH
