At UltiMaker's manufacturing facility in Zaltbommel, Netherlands, workers have successfully utilised the advanced capabilities of the UltiMaker S5 3D printer to create a custom assembly pliers. This innovative tool, known as the pre-feeder spring pliers, greatly simplifies the process of inserting a spring into the printer's pre-feeder housing. As a result, operators experience improved efficiency and productivity, leading to enhanced overall output quality.
Andritz Kaiser uses UltiMaker S5 3D Printers and carbon fibre-reinforced nylon 3D printing material to replace the metal parts of its enormous stamping machines, creating more than 150 machine components, such as brackets and covers, reducing the amount of metal used directly - and vastly reducing the weight.
