What Makes Large 3D Print Machine Ideal for Industrial Part Production

In the fast-paced world of industrial production, the large-format 3D printing technology has actually become a game-changer in terms of the cost-effective manufacture of large parts. Since 2014, we have been committed to developing versatile, flexible and cost-effective industrial 3D printing solutions at Dowell 3D. We have extensive experience in FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) and FGF (Fused Granule Fabrication) technologies, materials certification, and software optimization and are all involved in providing end-to-end control over quality and performance. This is what makes our large-format 3D printers the best solution in the production of industrial parts.

Uncompromised Structural Integrity Through Single-Piece Fabrication

Industrial components are supposed to work in harsh conditions and every joint or seam that is added to them by assembly may actually prove to be a possible failure point. Dowell 3D large-format 3D printers are capable of removing this risk because they create components as a continuous structure. Our FDM and FGF systems are the only systems that allow manufacturers to produce anything, including automotive tooling and jigs, as well as large-sized molds and end-use components, without splitting models because of large build volumes. The outcome is better mechanical strength, better fatigue strength and a lean production process that eliminates the complications of fastening, welding or bonding several components.

Cost-Effective Production with FGF Technology

Material cost and deposition rate of material are very important when it comes to large scale production of industrial parts. The FGF (Fused Granule Fabrication) printers being offered by Dowell 3D come with a unique benefit of using granular raw materials or the same pellets found in traditional injection molding as opposed to filament. This technique saves a lot on material expenditure and achieves higher extrusion rates than the normal filament-based systems. FGF technology will provide you with high throughput, industrial grade components at a cost-effective solution, and a combination with our stringent material certification and testing procedure, FGF technology will provide you with a high-quality solution in prototyping as well as high-volume production applications.

Precision Engineering Supported by Advanced Software

The size does not have to be the sole determinant of quality, precision is also a necessity in industrial applications. The large-format printers of Dowell 3D have some strong motion systems, rigid gantries and closed-loop controls ensuring accuracy throughout the print area. Nevertheless, hardware is not all that. Our constant advancements in slicing and process control software make complex geometries, fine details and tight tolerances continually attained even on oversized parts. We can achieve this by ensuring that the interaction between hardware and software is entirely under our control, and thus the manufacturers can create large components with a similar accuracy as they would with traditional manufacturing practices.

Tailored Solutions and Responsive Technical Support

Each industrial application is both a challenge, with its own specific material demands, and also with its own tailored machine design. The experienced engineers at Dowell 3D collaborate with manufacturers to find out solutions that will support their production objectives. It could be the choice of the optimal advanced material to use in heat resistance or structural strength, or the optimization of print parameters to a specific geometry, or a modification of machine characteristics to be accommodating to the pre-existing workflow, our technical team is equipped to meet any need. This dedication to holistic and reactive service, means that manufacturers can get innovative ideas and products to the market fast, with a partner that is knowledgeable in the needs of industrial production.

From the integrity of single-piece fabrication to the cost-efficiencies of FGF technology, since precision-driven software to personalized engineering support, Dowell 3D large-format 3D printers provide the performance and reliability that are needed in industrial applications. We enable manufacturers to transcend the constraints of the traditional mode of production with a base that was established on solutions that are versatile, adaptable and economical. You may be making prototypes, tooling or end-use parts but whatever you are up to, our technical team can assist you to use large-format 3D printing to meet your manufacturing goals.
