Mobile 3D Printing Production

As per the new report, the German automotive manufacturer Daimler Buses as well as its after sales service brand Omniplus have been planning to construct a brand-new center for the mobile 3D printing that completely suitable in a container for the purposeful local production of spare parts. The officials of the leading automaker company said that around 36 square meter facility of the mobile 3D printing will accelerate the massive supply of spare parts to the customers of the bus and meanwhile, recorded a major decline on the transportation of those parts from fixed rate of production as well as storage centers.

The officials also revealed that in this pilot project the container has been located at the BusWorld service center in Hamburg which been operate by Omniplus and also developing essential parts for Mercedes-Benz and Setra busesThe 3D parts are printed with the help of high-quality polyamide and also meet the significant production standards for injection moulding and comprehensive drawn parts

He also stated that decentralized production of spare parts as needed eliminates warehousing prices and also decreases transportation paths

The production as well as delivery of 3D printed spare parts captures days at the most as compared to week for those fundamentally developed, specifically for spare parts that are moderately needed or experts.
