3D printing in the industry
automotive & aerospace
3D printing has become established in the automotive and aviation industries. This is one of the main trends of technological change in the spirit of the 4.0 revolution for these sectors of the economy. In addition to rapid prototyping, creating models, and printing decorative elements for dashboards, bumpers, mirrors, or aircraft cabin equipment, these components can be used in low-volume production.
Individualization of moto elements
Additive technology also enables the individualization of car components. Thanks to 3D printing, vehicle owners can economically adapt their cars to their tastes and needs.
There is an extensive selection of materials on the market, each with different properties and advantages. Flexible, rubber, rigid, non-flammable, and high-temperature-resistant materials are used to personalize vehicles. Most often, they are available in virtually all rainbow colors and more.
Filaments resembling metal, wood, and transparent materials for 3D printers are becoming increasingly common. Elements printed to personalize the vehicle include gear knobs, organizers, handles, and hooks.
3D printing in aviation
One of the applications of FFF 3D printing technology is the production of light and, at the same time, durable aircraft parts. Thanks to additive technology, the so-called non-critical parts for aircraft, for example, support fuel, hydraulic, and control systems, are available.
They are much lighter than parts produced using traditional methods and, at the same time, equally durable.
Additive technology is also beneficial in producing parts with complex shapes, e.g., pipes forming an anti-icing installation.
The most frequently printed cabin equipment on an airplane are luggage compartment covers, seat belt mounts, and cup holders.
UBOT 3D printers are the best choice
Our P440 and P800D industrial line printers are perfect for use in all industries.
Quality, print accuracy, and the ability to use advanced materials such as composite filaments, PEEK, or PEI are fundamental elements of the full use of these machines in production plants.
New technology in the automotive industry
Do you need parts for your classic? If they have been withdrawn from production, they are no longer in the manufacturer's warehouses, and you have access to a 3D printer, you can easily print such a part.
The FDM technology used by our printers allows for the perfect reproduction of original parts such as body elements, interior furnishings, and small functional parts. Parts for your classic created on a 3D printer help you save time and money.
