工具开发
减少在非创收零件上投入的熟练技工数量。
以更少的附加成本实现复杂的几何形状。
以更快的迭代速度将工具更快地用于生产。
生产工具的设计、原型制作和制造流程可谓是产品开发周期中成本投入最高、耗时最长的部分。根据工具的复杂程度，交付周期可能长达数周甚至数月，而成本可能高达数万美元。因此，迭代过程可能极其繁琐。工具的任何变化都可能使生产延迟数月，并进一步增加预算。幸运的是，高强度 3D 打印技术的进步带来了可行的替代解决方案。
首先，3D 打印技术提供了一种在最终生产前进行原型制作和工具设计迭代的方法，能够大幅削减成本并缩短开发时间。其次，许多工具本身可以采用复合材料或金属进行 3D 打印，从而进一步简化流程。具备打印热固性模具、注塑模具、插件、芯模和其他工具的能力意味着无需使用 CAM，可以设计更复杂的零件而不必担心成本飙升，以及节省宝贵的加工车间资源。
