Our Solutions for Robotics & Automation

Engineering-Grade FDM

Nylon-CF, PC, and ASA materials for durable end effectors, brackets, and structural components with excellent wear resistance.

Topology-Optimized Structures

Generative design and lattice structures in SLS nylon for ultra-lightweight robot arms and linkages with optimized stiffness-to-weight ratios.

Rapid Iteration for Prototypes

Same-day turnaround for gripper iterations, allowing multiple design-test cycles per week during development.

SUCCESS STORY

Industrial Automation Integrator

60% faster custom gripper development, $12K tooling savings per project
"We used to machine custom grippers from aluminum blocks. Now we print them in Nylon-CF overnight. The parts are stiff enough, 80% lighter, and we can iterate 3x faster. Typical gripper project went from 6 weeks to 2 weeks."
