Opening Up CNC Bandwidth at a Job Shop with 3D Printing

Recorded webcast from May, 2018

Phil Vickery, President and Owner of Centerline Engineered Solutions, goes out of his way to help clients. But machining a punch and die for a low-volume 14-gauge steel part made the job prohibitively expensive.

Join us for a live conversation with Phil to learn how he leveraged industrial 3D printing to:

  • Dramatically reduce costs by printing the tooling out of chopped carbon fiber and reinforcing critical points with steel inserts.

  • Increase productivity and reduce cycle times by printing jigs, tools, and fixtures

  • Expand manufacturing capabilities and win new business opportunities
