Gühring UK manufactures custom cutting and milling tools for large corporations around the world. Depending on the size and complexity of the components, it used to take up to 8 weeks to design, test, and manufacture special tools in-house. Therefore, we adopted the Markforged Metal X system and a composite 3D printer that utilizes continuous fiber carbon. By 3D printing parts instead of manually machining them, we have significantly reduced lead times, receiving positive feedback on the verification of tool design to tool printing. [Case Summary] ■ Reduced production time: 66% ■ Cost reduction of jigs: 75% ■ Weight reduction of jigs: 60% *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Surgical instrument manufacturer Shukla Medical has reduced its annual costs by 3D printing prototypes of surgical instruments using "METAL X." "METAL X" offers various advantages over CNC machining, such as reduced lead time for prototypes and increased design freedom, enabling the production of tools with complex shapes. While CNC machining of metal prototypes takes 7 to 40 days for manufacturing, 3D printing of parts only takes 2.7 days. With "METAL X," more complex shapes can be tested, allowing for the avoidance of greater design risks. 【METAL X Features】 ■ FFF-based 3D printer capable of printing in metal ■ Uses filament that fuses metal powder with polymer materials ■ Compatible with various metal alloys, including A2 tool steel and D2 tool steel *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The resin parts reinforced with long fiber materials such as continuous carbon fiber overturn the conventional wisdom of 3D printers, possessing strength comparable to 6061 T6 aluminum. The standard material, Onyx, is 20% stronger and 40% more robust than ABS. It has high heat resistance (heat distortion temperature = 145°C) and chemical resistance, and due to minimal shrinkage, it also reduces warping, which is characteristic of 3D printing. Additionally, the built-in laser in the print head allows for measurement of the parts during fabrication with an accuracy of 1 micron, enabling verification of dimensional intersections (internal measurements of the parts).
