Description
Trade Meister EOOD has experienced a growing demand for equipment and machines that rely on various types and dimensions of metal parts and composite materials. While they''ve turned to external suppliers for these crucial components, the company has encountered several challenges. These include limited availability of suppliers with appropriate equipment capable of handling their unique orders, reluctance to accommodate smaller-scale requests, the need for costly reconfiguration of equipment, high prices for custom components, protracted delivery times, and additional expenses related to logistics and transportation. Moreover, various metal products require electrochemical treatments such as galvanizing and anodizing, which result in more expenses, longer delivery times, and negative environmental impacts.
To address these challenges, Trade Meister EOOD embarked on an extensive research and analysis journey. Their goal was to set up an in-house production facility, employing additive manufacturing techniques, particularly 3D printing. This approach allows for the cost-effective production of lightweight, reinforced, customized, and even pre-assembled components compared to conventional manufacturing methods.
The objective of this project is to invest in cutting-edge equipment and software to enable the production and processing of components using 3D printing technology. Trade Meister EOOD aims to introduce new methods for manufacturing metal and composite parts, elements, and components by leveraging additive technologies and various composite materials. By embracing 3D printing, the company can reduce its reliance on external suppliers, and diversify its activities by offering 3D technology-based production and restoration services for components. This move will enhance their competitiveness, reduce operational costs, and bolster their innovative capabilities. It represents an important step towards sustainable and self-reliant business operations.
