Patient-Specific Surgical Drill Guides
Project Focus: High Detail Accuracy & Autoclave Compatibility
SLA (Stereolithography)
Bio-compatible Rigid Resin
±0.05mm Deviation
The Engineering Challenge
A medical device startup needed 50 sets of custom drill guides based on patient CT scans. The parts required a smooth surface for sterilization and enough rigidity to withstand high-speed drilling without vibrating or cracking.
- Complex internal channels for irrigation.
- Material must not leach chemicals during short-term skin contact.
- Tight lead time of 72 hours for pre-surgery approval.
Our Solution
We utilized industrial SLA machines with a 0.05mm layer height. Parts were post-cured in a UV-thermal chamber to ensure full material polymerization and mechanical stability.
- Orientation: Optimized to keep critical holes support-free.
- Finishing: Manual IPA washing and micro-bead blasting.
- QC: 100% inspection against the original STL mesh data.
Functional Air Intake Manifold Prototype
Focus: Heat Resistance & Air-Tight Integrity
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering)
Nylon PA12 + 30% Glass Filled
Up to 160°C
Technical Challenge
An EV racing team required a lightweight intake manifold for track testing. FDM parts failed due to layer delamination under pressure. The part needed to be air-tight and withstand the high temperatures of the engine bay.
- Complex organic curves that are impossible to machine.
- Requirement for integrated sensor mounting threads.
- Isotropic strength needed to handle internal air pressure.
Technical Execution
We selected SLS Nylon with Glass Fiber reinforcement for superior stiffness. SLS technology eliminates the need for supports, allowing us to maintain a perfectly clean internal airflow path.
- DFM: Added internal ribs to prevent wall bulging under pressure.
- Post-Process: Media blasting to remove excess powder and vapor smoothing for airflow efficiency.
- Testing: Pressure tested at 2.0 Bar to ensure zero leakage.
Custom EOAT (End-of-Arm Tooling) Grippers
Focus: Weight Reduction & Rapid Deployment
FDM / Carbon Fiber Reinforcement
Nylon CF (Carbon Fiber Filled)
+40% Effective Capacity
Engineering Challenge
An electronics assembly line needed a custom gripper to handle fragile circuit boards. The original aluminum gripper was too heavy, slowing down the robot's cycle time and exceeding the motor's torque limits during high-speed movements.
- Need for non-marring surfaces to protect delicate components.
- Integrated air channels for vacuum suction required inside the part.
- Standard CNC lead times were 2 weeks; the line was down.
Our Solution
We printed the gripper using Nylon reinforced with Continuous Carbon Fiber. This provided the stiffness of aluminum at a fraction of the weight. Internal vacuum paths were printed as a single, leak-proof unit.
- Design: Topology optimization to remove excess material.
- Integration: Direct installation of brass threaded inserts during post-processing.
- Speed: From CAD file to on-site installation in 36 hours.
High-Fidelity TWS Earbud Prototypes
Focus: Aesthetic Finish & Precise Assembly Fit
High-Resolution DLP
Paint-Ready / Smooth Finish
Min. 0.6mm
Technical Challenge
A top-tier audio brand required 20 sets of functional earbud housings for user ergonomic testing. The parts needed to snap-fit together perfectly, accommodate internal PCBs, and look exactly like the final injection-molded product.
- Extremely tight tolerances (±0.03mm) for battery contact alignment.
- Thin-wall structures that must not warp during printing.
- Paint adhesion requirements for high-gloss metallic coatings.
Precision Engineering
We utilized industrial DLP machines for their superior XY resolution. By using a specialized "Tough Resin," we ensured the snap-fit clips would not snap during repeated opening and closing of the housing.
- Layering: 25-micron layers to eliminate all visible stair-stepping.
- Post-Processing: Ultrasonic cleaning and light hand-polishing for a Class-A surface.
- Validation: Mechanical testing of the hinge and snap-lock features.
