Manufacturing
In-house 3D printing facilitate the production of end-use high precision tools, gijs and fixtures for your factory floor, reducing downtime and increasing production efficiency.
BCN3D Printers in Manufacturing
IDEX technology: Same investment, double productivity
IDEX technology is the only extrusion system capable of printing with two heads independently. This system allows enabling Duplication and Mirror printing modes capable of printing two pieces at a time. Double printing capacity means double productivity, all with the same investment. Unlike any other dual extrusion machines on the market, when you acquire a Sigma or Sigmax machine, you get one printer but you double your productivity. All thanks to the IDEX technology.
Big volume with the biggest printing surface
The BCN3D Epsilon offers a large print volume of 420x300x400mm. The main advantage of this feature is its proportions, offering the largest printing surface on the market with an incredible height of 400mm. This allows to print the vast majority of parts that are manufactured.
A family of hotends which adapts to your production needs
The hotend family offers a wide range of nozzle sizes that adapt to various needs; from printing small delicate details to big and robust parts. Just changing the toolhead, you will be able to manufacture the majority of the models.
Use cases in Manufacturing Industry
Nissan is ahead of the curve with a dynamic implementation of 3D printed tools, jigs and fixtures in its assembly lines
Automotive giant Nissan is relying on a small farm of BCN3D printers in its Barcelona factory to fabricate 700 tools, jigs, and fixtures in its car assembly lines so far. We developed a digital library for you to see the specifications of each part. On a tour of their facilities, Trim & Chassis Manufacturing Kaizen Engineer Enric Ridao and Manager of Maintenance & Engineering Facilities Carlos Rellán told us all about their immense savings in time and costs: reducing one week to one day, and costs to 20 times less.
