Using Additive Manufacturing for Automotive Tooling and Fixtures

 

When it comes to creating tooling and fixtures for the automotive industry, 3D printing has more to offer than meets the eye. What used to take days, or sometimes weeks, to procure with traditional manufacturing methods can instead be printed in-house in just a few hours.

You’re also no longer constrained to traditional design techniques restricted by manufacturing and can instead create intricate geometry that is otherwise unheard of. Additionally, cutting-edge material technologies enable the creation of parts that are stronger than their metal counterparts while being a fraction of the weight.

Join TriMech Additive Solutions Consultant, Roscoe DeSadier, for an overview of Stratasys’s long history in tooling fixtures and jigs in the automotive manufacturing space. He’ll discuss how you can best leverage the enhancements in the additive manufacturing space and where it can replace traditional manufacturing. He’ll guide you through the process of additively printing those tools to speed production, save time, and enhance worker safety.

In this Automotive Tooling and Fixtures webinar, you will learn:

  • Where additive manufacturing can replace traditional methods for tooling and fixtures
  • What you need to know about your material choices
  • How to reduce mass and add lightness to models
  • An introduction to GrabCAD Print Pro and Fixturemate
