By 3D printing this clutch plate, only critical dimensions need to be machined, saving machinist labour, and CNC machine time and reducing part cost. Traditional machining of this part would require multiple setups and multiple machining operations.

• Size (mm): 80 x 80 x 15
• Cost per part: $49.57
• Parts per build: 29
• Weekly throughput: 200

• Binder Jetting Technology™

Small changes to the geometry can have drastic effects on burner performance, fuel efficiency, power output, etc.
3D printing it on the Shop System™ allowed for the part to be produced with no tooling, allowing for the printed geometry to be changed easily in order to adapt to different burners and fuel mixes.

In terms of ROI, 3D printing these parts using the binder jetting technology translated into a short manufacturing lead time and lower part cost.

• Binder Jetting Technology™

The Shop System can 3D print parts like this sensor holder which has an intricate geometry. The part was printed with an extreme reduction in both manufacturing lead time and part cost.

3D printing on the Shop System also allows for manufacturing flexibility – when the design needs to be modified to incorporate different sensors, engineers can simply send a revised file to the printer.

• Binder Jetting Technology™

This down hole tool slip is a consumable part and is lost after pumping is complete, therefore keeping the price and lead time low is essential. The Shop System allows this part to be manufactured with an accelerated lead time and at a lower cost than traditional manufacturing. Moreover, the part design can be changed for different pumping scenarios.
