The use of 3D printers may sometimes sound like a fantasy pulled from science fiction books, but the truth is that it’s an advanced revolution that has taken over industrial production processes across a wide range of sectors. This revolution is rapidly transforming the world of industry because it can save time, manpower, and significant production costs. In addition, 3D printing enables more precise and systematic manufacturing, allowing for highly detailed design resolutions and effective solutions to production challenges – all in an accurate, reliable, and efficient manner.
The use of laser printers in industrial production has already expanded into numerous sectors, from major industries such as aerospace, complex machinery manufacturing, automotive and engines, and energy, to smaller fields like orthopedic solutions or printing components for dental and orthodontic applications. In all these fields and many others, 3D printing has become an essential part of the manufacturing process, serving as a convenient and efficient platform for producing high-quality, precision parts.
Large-Scale 3D Printers
One of the areas that has developed significantly in recent years is large-format 3D printing. This development marks a major breakthrough in the ability to use 3D printing on industrial production lines, as it enables the printing of large and complex parts in a consistent, fast, and accurate way.
It’s not just about the ability to print on a larger scale, but also about the print quality, surface finish, the ability to create complex engineering geometries, and ensuring durability and strength of the final products. These printers are not only physically larger – they also allow for faster and more advanced work, equipped with innovative technologies that enable high-quality production, design flexibility, reduced material waste, and even a decrease in dependence on expensive and complex molds.
Large Printers and Post Process Machines
When a particularly high level of production is required – in terms of planning, design, and the need for precise finishing – the RSPro2100 SLA 3D printer from UnionTech comes into play. This is an advanced and high-quality SLA printer (which uses laser projection on liquid resin). It features an enormous build volume of 2100 × 700 × 800 mm, making it one of the largest available on the market today. The printer is built for intensive use in industrial production environments and offers exceptional precision, fast operation, and significant cost savings.
To achieve a perfect finish, the DEMI 4100 Automated Resin Cleaning Solution from PostProcess Technologies is the ideal solution for resin-based products. This machine, specifically designed for working with large parts, provides superior finishing quality and ensures a precise, delicate, and high-end result.
The combination of these machines enables the printing of large parts with exceptional quality and represents a major leap in the technology’s ability to replace expensive and cumbersome industrial molds.
