“Our first stream of revenue is like many other companies – we are selling our machinery and service equipment, but that doesn’t differentiate us from many other manufacturing or 3D-printing companies, but Titomic has evolved beyond a 3D-printing company.

The focus is on harnessing the benefits of the latest technologies, with 3D printing – additive manufacturing, or AM – providing a fast, efficient and low-cost entry point. There was also a substantial saving in inventory costs, since shanks could simply be printed as required.”. AM had a role to play here,” said Elving.

This has taken the form of long lead times, as well as stalling of production when parts needed for manufacturing fail. The nature of AM can shorten lead times, too. 3D-printed automotive parts, courtesy of Ford Another interesting possibility that AM enables is greater customization.

Producing multiple parts means extra cost, is time-consuming and opens up the possibility of errors and reworkings. The benefits of using AM to make mandrels include lower tooling costs, shorter lead times, and greater flexibility in design. It allows direct casting of the mould into a 3D-printed sacrificial shell.

If you've ever seen large robots working on, say automotive production lines, you'll notice that those robots are all walled off from humans by gates or cages. The lead times were incredibly long, the pricing was not anywhere near what we could sustain. Why is that? And we wanted to get the work out of China.
