Tools are always needed in the manufacturing process, and some products and various fixtures, splints and measuring tools can significantly improve the process, while reducing production time and labor costs. However, before 3D printing became more and more popular, many companies could not afford to customize their own tools. When various affordable industrial and desktop 3D printers become popular, the situation may be very different.

Various applications of clamps and fixtures

We call clamps and fixtures as silent heroes in manufacturing industry because they are usually used in production lines except for exhibitions in bright offices and exhibition halls. They are used to grasping, fixing, positioning, protecting and organizing all stages of the manufacturing process. They assist in processing and assembly to perform quality assurance testing. Even R&D departments can use jigs and fixtures in experiments to make better products.The essence of 3D printing fixtures and fixtures is to enable people to better complete their work. But what makes these printing products so unique that they are being implemented in the manufacturing process and replace traditional tools?

Money, of course.Advantages of 3D printing fixtures and fixturesFixtures and fixtures cannot replace people, but they can make people work easier and more efficient. These devices contribute to repeatability, quality, and time efficiency. Until now, many companies have not used tools or only used them in small-scale production, which is mainly due to the high cost of manufacturing and storage, leading to an increase in overall production costs and a decline in corporate profits. Traditional manufacturing methods cannot provide the shape or precision that 3D printing can achieve.
