What Challenges are you solving in this industry

  • Disruptive production methods using additive printing [DPM]

Description of solution

CASTOR offers an automated screening software that analyzes CAD files to determine the 3D printability of parts in the food industry, helping manufacturers decide when it is beneficial to use 3D printing over traditional manufacturing methods, in order to reduce costs. The software allows you to generate reports covering costs, lead times, and break-even calculations; additionally, it performs deep technical analysis and recommends the best materials, technology, and geometry for each 3D printed part, while identifying cost reduction opportunities and suggesting geometry changes to the part’s design. Finally, it connects you to providers who can print and supply the parts. These solutions accelerate your time to market and reduce manufacturing costs.

What is the value you bring to your customers?

Reducing the time to go through a very large list of parts
Eliminating the costs associated with experts reviewing parts manually for 3D printability
Reducing inventory management costs for parts qualified for 3D printing by digitizing some/all inventory and 3D printing spare parts on demand
Freeing up congestion in supply chain and sourcing parts in other means (additive manufacturing)
