Why use FORTUS systems to produce end-use parts?

For low-volume manufacturing, traditional methods of making production parts are evolving. Instead of machining parts or cutting a tool for molding, direct digital manufacturing (DDM) is a cost-effective and simpler alternative. Now the production process can start as soon as the part’s CAD file is sent to an additive fabrication machine.

Although the part aesthetics are different from an injection-molded part, accuracy and strength are comparable.
