Catalysis 3D Printed Fixtures

Additive manufacturing has completely changed the way thermoformers – and OEMs – view tooling, in terms of production time, cost and quality. When compared to traditional metal tooling, Catalysis can 3D print tooling in half the time for half the cost while maintaining the same level of quality. Not only that, but 3D printing allows for the design of more complex tooling or low-to-medium volume production parts, removing constraints inhibited by traditional tooling design.

All fixtures use the same 3D printing technology, have the same design in order to save cost & time and are delivered together. Since all of the tools are made at the same time, this allows for an easier, more efficient time saving streamline process.
