DFAM - Design for Additive Manufacturing

DFAM - Design for Additive Manufacturing

Optimising your part design following our DFAM principles will ensure you get the maximum benefits that Additive Manufacturing can offer.

Analyse Existing Model

Our experienced design engineer will take your design or physical part and review it according to our design rules for 3D Printing.

Optimise Model

Your model is then optimised, if required, to fine tune it for the chosen 3D Printing process. Our design process here ensures you are maximising the benefits of 3D Printing. 

Prepare Model to Print 

Once we have approved the final design, your design engineer will orientate, support and stack, as required, prior to being Printed. This optimises the manufacturing process.

What is DFAM?

With traditional manufacturing methods the final stage of the Product Design phase is DFM - 'Design for Manufacture'. This process ensures the design is capable of being produced with the chosen process. Additive Manufacturing is no different here, with DFAM - 'Design for Additive Manufacturing' we follow the same logic to ensure your Part Design is optimised for the most cost effective Manufacturing Process. 
The benefits of DFAM are that you have much more design freedom when comparing to traditional methods like CNC, Injection Moulding & Casting. 
The nature of 3D Printing processes allow you to completely re-think how to design the perfect product. Our experience and expertise in this field will ensure that you are truely maximising the benefits of Additive Manufacturing.
