Lightweight with high strength, lighter than metal! Here are examples of weight reduction to improve work efficiency.
We would like to introduce a case study of custom jig creation using a high-hardness resin 3D printer. There are many products with small lot sizes and a variety of types, and producing them through metal processing becomes expensive. Additionally, making them out of metal results in heavier products, leading to the challenge of wanting to reduce weight to improve work efficiency. Therefore, we created jigs using a 3D printer. As a result, the jigs have higher strength compared to general nylon and ABS resins, and they are significantly lighter than metal, which has improved work efficiency and made it possible to produce them at a low cost. [Case Overview] ■Challenges - High costs when produced through metal processing - Need to reduce weight to improve work efficiency due to heaviness of metal ■Results - Improved work efficiency - Possible to produce at a low cost For your reference: A video introducing our jig production by Ricoh https://www.ricoh.co.jp/3dp/case/matsui/ *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
