FAQs

What are 3D Printed Spare Parts?

A spare part, which is also known as a replacement or service part,
is the interchangeable part that is kept in the inventory for future
use in case an element of a material or equipment gets broken. It
will be used to repair the unit by replacing the current part with it.

Do I Get Benefits If I 3D Print Spare Parts?

Additive manufacturing is offering many advantages not only to
end-users but especially to many business sectors. Here are some
notable benefits you should know:

End-users

Have you ever tried visiting various nearby stores to buy a spare
part you need but ended up getting nothing? Then you go to
your last resort—online shopping, however, you still cannot find
that specific part that would allow you to keep your material or
equipment up and running. This is where 3D-printed spare parts
enter the scene.

End-users definitely benefit from it as it is a convenient technique
that allows you to get whatever spare part you need. All you have
to do is ping a message to a 3D printing company, and you will
surely get the spare part you’ve been longing for in just a few days.

Businesses

If we are to talk about who could greatly take advantage of this innovation,
it is none other than the businesses. Let’s take a look at the reasons why:


  • Minimize Supply Risk - It allows you to create a ready-to-print 3D design of
    your spare part. With this, you can supply your customers anytime
    they need it by simply 3D printing the model.

  • Shorter Lead time - Increase your production efficiency by significantly
    reducing your manufacturing and delivery lead times. Creating prototypes
    of spare parts also became easier and more convenient.

  • Cost-Efficient Low Volume Production - In comparison with the typical
    manufacturing process, 3D printing offers a lower fixed manufacturing cost
    as it is highly automated. There’s no expensive tooling
    needed that allows for low volume production of spare parts.

  • Accuracy and Flexibility - Because of the highly accurate 3D designs
    that modelers create, 3D printing results in highly precise 3D printed spare
    parts that are perfect according to your actual needs.

What are the Industries That Can Benefit from
3D Printing Spare Parts?

Since there is a challenge in the supply of spare parts in many businesses,
the creation of 3D printed spare parts could help many industries resolve
the problem. Some sectors that would greatly take advantage of the 3D
printing technology for spare parts include but are not limited to the following:
