Low volume manufacturing and end use parts
The manufacture of short series and final pieces with additive manufacturing technologies, vacuum casting or CNC machining, are effective solutions, technically and economically viable with respect to other manufacturing methods.
The manufacture of short series (small batches) is highly recommended if the product should be on the market within a short period of time. Also, when it is a first version of a new idea or concept, or the evolution of a previous version.
The manufacturing of final pieces using additive manufacturing technologies allows to obtain pieces of polyamide (PA 12) without limitations regarding the geometry of the designs and without the need to invest in injection molds.
In both cases, the reduction of time and cost of manufacturing components is an advantage over other traditional manufacturing methods.
These generally present the problem of not being technically and economically viable for the manufacture of short series. Therefore, more and more, companies seek effective solutions through new technologies.
Manufacturing short series and final pieces
- To reduce the time and cost of manufacturing components
- If the product should be in the market in a short period of time
- If it is a first version of the product
- If it is an evolution of a previous version of the product
- To optimize the personalization of the product
- When the units to be manufactured do not justify the manufacture of an injection mould

Technologies for low volume and final pieces manufacturing
Stereolithography (SLA)
Additive manufacturing technology, through which pieces of epoxy resin are obtained with excellent reproduction of details and precision, which allow different surface finishes.
Laser Sintering (SLS)
Additive manufacturing technology that allows to obtain functional parts with an excellent mechanical behaviour that can be used for multiple applications.
Fused deposition modeling (FDM)
Additive manufacturing technology, through which parts with a variety of high-performance thermoplastics and approved materials for the aeronautical industry can be manufactured.
Metal 3D printing (SLM)
Additive manufacturing technology, by which highly complex metal parts can be manufactured quickly and which provides almost unlimited design flexibility..
Vacuum Casting
Manufacturing technology that allows the reproduction of parts in polyurethane resin using a silicone mould. Rapid production of prototypes, low volume manufacturing and final parts.
CNC Machining
Manufacturing technology that allows parts to be manufactured by extracting material from a block. Said operations are carried out on Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines.
Rapid Tooling
Manufacturing technology for the production of series of plastic and metal parts; Prototype Molds allow parts to be manufactured as a preliminary step to large-scale manufacturing.
Metal Pressing
Metal Pressing is a manufacturing technology that makes it possible to obtain metal parts by subjecting the material to a compression load between two moulds, which are steel stamps or dies.
