Fueling Industries that
Power the World
We deliver quality additive manufacturing across a variety of industries, plus the expertise and agility that organizations need to succeed.
Aerospace
At ABCorp 3D, we’re no strangers to partnering with all aspects of the aerospace industry. We have a long history of working with partners to deliver high-quality prototypes, replacement parts, and drone technology as one-off orders or large-scale production roll outs. Choose from a variety of materials to find the perfect weight and shape for your project.
How 3D Printing Supports Aerospace:
- Drone Technology: 3D printed parts have been used in aerospace for decades due to their strong yet lightweight nature. In the last few decades this technology has been used in the advancements of drones, applying durable materials to meet all product requirements.
- Replacement Parts: 3D printing is extremely useful for manufacturing parts that have become difficult to find, unreliable, or discontinued. Existing or similar parts are scanned, recreated, and printed for immediate use to get production, machines, and devices back up and running.
- High Quality Prototypes: There are no limits to how many prototypes or iterations you might need to perfect the part you’re looking for. Fine-tune products before investing in final production—especially if they will be performing critical, complex tasks. Our team of experts are here to assist you and make the process as smooth as possible.
Benefits of 3D Printing Metal
Metals provide higher yield strength, are fatigue- and temperature-resistant, and can have a better weight-to-strength ratio, making them ideal candidates for 3D printed aerospace and automotive projects.
Automotive
The automotive industry is changing. Around the globe, manufacturers are forming strategic partnerships to optimize asset deployment, making their supply chains more resilient and shifting to recurring revenue streams. As a result, manufacturers have begun incorporating cutting-edge technologies like additive manufacturing into the automotive manufacturing process.
How 3D Printing Supports Automotive:
- Shorten product development lifecycles and streamline design processes, resulting in faster speed to market.
- Produce on-demand parts in a variety of high quality materials including stainless steel.
- Create lightweight, scalable parts ideal for Electric Vehicles (EV).
Advancing the Automotive Industry
As 3D printing in automotive continues to advance, this technology offers more and more beneficial use cases within this sector.
Consumer Goods
Prototyping is an essential step in the product development process for manufacturers intent on taking quality goods to market. While ABCorp customers may design only a handful of rapid prototypes manufactured with our custom 3D printed rapid prototyping services, others may 3D print hundreds of test parts.
How 3D Printing Supports Consumer Goods:
- Rapid prototyping includes testing a variety of materials, colors, and finishes to achieve your perfect part.
- While developing parts, testing, and implementing feedback, manufacturers working with ABCorp 3D can easily modify any 3D design with just the click of a button.
Paralympics Curling Case Study
ABCorp 3D helped design and manufacture a more precise curling tool currently utilized by Team USA Paralympics.
Medical
When it comes to hospital devices, the last thing you want to worry about is faulty devices and parts. At ABCorp 3D, we work extensively with medical partners on prostheses, medical tools, and 3D models of human body parts when a digital image can’t relay the message.
How 3D Printing Supports the Medical Field:
- Patient Specific Orthoses: Create fully customized braces and orthotics suited for every unique individual’s needs that are professional and durable. Enjoy quality, market-ready solutions for O&P that are made with Nylon PA11, BASF Ultrasint01 TPU, and Nylon PA12.
- Medical Devices: Allow us to aid in modification, prototyping, and complete customization of medical tools including eyewear, hearing aids, and surgical instruments. If you’re looking to cut costs or to customize and diversify your manufacturing options, we offer a great solution.
- Medical Models: Medical 3D models enable you to get hands-on with your structure, providing perspective that cannot be achieved through images on a screen. Some 3D prints made at ABCorp 3D include small molecules, proteins, macromolecules and viruses, bacteria, cells, tissues, and organisms.
Orthotics Case Study
Every patient has a distinctive foot, build, and lifestyle which require complete customization of their orthotics. Through 3D printing, both podiatrists and end users are more satisfied with the final product.
Prosthetics
ABCorp can create fully customized prostheses suited for every individual’s needs. These pieces are professional durable quality and market-ready, made with Nylon PA11, BASF Ultrasint01 TPU, and Nylon PA12.
How 3D Printing Supports Prosthetics:
- Create custom 3D printed robotic limbs ergonomically designed for a perfect fit.
- Choose from a variety of materials and finishes to produce any kind of prosthetic, including human and animal prosthetics and robotic attachments and parts.
- Support individuals who have been unsuccessful with traditionally manufactured prosthetics.
Limb Kind Case Study
HP, Limb Kind, and Macy O&P partnered with ABCorp 3D to additively manufacture prosthetics to bring mobility, dignity, and hope to children in Kenya.
Robotics
From rapid prototype to finished product, we 3D print custom robotic designs that are industrial-grade and affordable. Our systems are perfect for complex designs that integrate multiple functions into one part. If you can think of it, we can make it. The best part? No minimum order requirement necessary. From human and animal prosthetics to replacement parts, here are a few of the solutions we’ve provided:
How 3D Printing Supports Robotics:
- Robotic Modifications: Develop unique modifications for your robotics applications like custom housings and parts, tooling and jigs, replacement parts, and durable and long-lasting materials from steel to nylon.
- Robotic Prosthetics: Develop custom 3D printed robotic limbs designed for a perfect fit and ergonomic design.
The Future Is Now
In recent years, we have witnessed a paradigm shift in the way we think about, create, and produce robotic parts — all thanks to the radical advancements in 3D printing technology.
Production Support
It’s imperative to deliver on the promises you make to your clients. But every now and again there’s a mechanical issue that can stop you dead in your tracks. As a manufacturing facility ourselves, we understand the struggle — and we have the solution. If your production lines are down, under maintenance, or plain just can’t keep up — we are here to help.
How ABCorp 3D Supports Other Manufacturers:
- Facilities Capacity: Our state-of-the-art 3D printing facilities have the capacity and expertise to assist until you are back up and running.
- Work Overflow: Have a busy month and not sure if you can meet deadlines on your own? We’re here to help.
- Materials Library: ABCorp 3D is the only 3D printer on the East Coast with the capabilities to 3D print on a vast array of quality materials including metal.
