Contract ManufacturingDecreasing Time-to-Market With Additive ManufacturingThe Essentium High Speed Extrusion (HSE™) 3D Printing Platform is disrupting every aspect of the factory floor. It is the world’s most comprehensive full-stack advanced manufacturing system, offering high-performance machines and materials that allow you to scale, enhance QA processes, and reduce the need for finished good warehousing. The HSE 3D Printing Platform allows contract manufacturers to execute production runs on-demand with high-performance materials at the lowest possible cost.Key Applications Jigs & FixturesQuickly produce parts to customer's specifications and keep them on hand without warehousing costs. Rapid PrototypingWin new business by giving customers the flexibility to customize products and make changes at the last minute. CastingDevelop new and complex castings that fit seamlessly into existing workflows — and save on time and cost in the process.HIGH SPEED EXTRUSION FOR CONTRACT MANUFACTURINGAs a category creator in additive manufacturing, the HSE 3D Printer solves the speed, strength, and scale issues that have historically limited additive manufacturing solutions. Using all-linear servo motors, the HSE 3D Printing Platform eliminates wasted movement allowing it to reach speeds of up to 500 mm/sec. This system is optimized for industrial production and performs to the level required in the most demanding contract manufacturing environments.With the industry’s best and broadest material offering and the most advanced high speed extrusion system for scale manufacturing of commercial-grade functional parts, Essentium solutions are ready to deliver the speed and reliability at scale to keep your next job on time and budget.Recommended Machines HSE 280i HT 3D PRINTERFor production orders with quick turnarounds, double your print speed with the HSE 280i HT 3D Printer.
