At Brose North America, 3D printing isn’t just another prototyping tool. The company uses FDM, SLA, SLS, and SLM 3D printing for a wide range of production activities, from prototyping and manufacturing aids to assembly line tools, and end-use parts for vehicles such as the BMW X7. The Brose North America fleet of Fuse Series SLS 3D printers produces parts all day, every day, using about 20 kilograms of Nylon 12 Powder each week. Matthias Schulz has overseen the expansion of Brose North America’s 3D printing program, developing workflows for production volumes and ensuring parts adhere to strict regulatory standards.

You’ll learn:
  • How to evaluate: In-house SLS or injection molding/outsourcing?
  • How to test 3D printed parts for end-use quality
  • How to effectively manage 24/7 SLS 3D printing
  • How to reverse engineer and 3D print existing parts
  • How to choose the right 3D printing solution for each problem
