Automobile Manufacturing
3D Printing Service
Many automotive components have curved surface structures and grid structures. It is very difficult and costly to manufacture the prototypes of these components through machining technology. 3D printing technology can directly generate parts of any shape from computer graphics data, and the products produced by 3D printing technology can achieve a density of over 99%.
