Alseca Shrinks Automotive Assembly Tool Creation Time with FDM 3D Printing
Alseca Engineering is a tier one supplier to the automotive industry and spends considerable resources on developing manufacturing tools. When Alseca needed to develop a lightweight auto trunk plate, it looked to 3D printing for the solution. Alseca used FDM technology to quickly create vacuum-form tooling in days rather than weeks. This let them test multiple ideas and find the right combination of strength and light weight for the new trunk plate.
