3D Printers Provide Design Checks



One of Royal Machine's three DaVinci 3D printers in the process of producing a model of a workholding fixture.

Royal Machine & Tool Corporation recently acquired three new 3D printers to assist in current and advance planning, designing and manufacturing of its workholding parts and products.

In making the announcement, Guy Byrne, Senior Vice President & General Manager, said, "Our three new 3D printers have allowed us to quickly move forward by grasping their latest technologies and applying them to our specific needs. With the 3D printers, Royal Machine now is making all of its plastic parts on these machines, plus producing models of prototypes and form fitted custom jaws. In addition, these 3D printed parts provide us the ability to check designs for potential errors or tool clearances, and, in some cases, check for form, fit and function prior to actual manufacturing of the permanent parts for workholding fixtures."

"As we progress with our understanding and experience with 3D printing," said Byrne, "we can foresee where this process will be beneficial in other areas of our business while we continue servicing our customers ever increasing requirements."

Royal Machine & Tool Corporation designs and builds custom and standard workholding devices and chucks, in addition to providing a complete range of contract machining options/services.
