What difference can 3D Printing Make?
Provide safer working environments
When it comes to worker safety, 3D printing
has proven use case, creating anything from
custom “lockout-tagout” (LOTO) devices and key
systems, to safety covers, shields, and protectors.
These 3D printed devices are tailored to each
specific line setup. And they all help to reduce
human error and to make packaging line operators
feel more confident. This then leads to
faster changeovers and a reduction in
unplanned downtime.
Increase factory line uptime
Production that meets KPIs requires high
uptime. So it’s a big deal if you can minimize
short stops, speed up changeovers, and avoid
unplanned downtime. 3D printing gives you a
way to fabricate new applications that can have
a massive impact on how efficiently operators
can perform routine maintenance and changeovers.
You can also 3D print custom parts that
solve headache problems that are causing
downtime or even full production stops.
Decrease lead-times and costs
The traditional process to get a spare or replacement
part can be time-consuming and expensive.
With 3D printing, you can produce many parts
in-house – at a fraction of the cost. This means
you’re less dependent on supplier lead times
to get your line running efficiently again.
Faster time to market
Today’s rapidly changing consumer behavior
requires responsive and agile production. Whether
that means faster changeovers to manufacture
products to meet changing demand. Or testing
new products on the line itself. You can 3D print
the parts you need to shortcut those processes.
