3D robotics - printing with different axes
3D robotics is on the rise in industry. This is mainly due to the fact that this technology brings with it great flexibility and enables companies to print even unusual shapes and products, as well as necessary small parts, in a cost- and time-saving manner. Consequently, 3D printing technology an exciting and future-oriented component in the field of 3D robotics.
3D printed robots – 3D in use in robotics
3D printers are used in very different areas of 3D robotics. In addition to saving material, saving time plays a central role. Components no longer have to be time-consumingly milled from materials such as aluminum, but can be printed precisely in a short time. This flexibility makes it possible to produce complex components for devices and products in robotics and automation technology quickly and on site if required. This is an unbeatable advantage when it comes to prototyping new designs.
A huge advantage of 3D robotics is the fact that complex components for robots can also be produced with the additive process. Among other things, you can use the technology to produce a gripper with 3D printing. The clean multi-material printing made of Multec PLA and elastic BioTPU for the gripper saves our customers money compared to conventional milling from aluminum and can be used in many different areas due to its high precision and reliability.
The printing process is also used in 3D robotics for large free-form parts. These play a role, for example, when individual prototypes and special tools are to be manufactured. Even large-format hybrid parts can be easily produced with 3D printers and used in 3D robotics. For this, however, it is necessary to use or develop special algorithms that tell the 3D printer very clearly on which axis it should move, in which direction and at what speed.
3D robotics - a technology with a future
Even if entire 3D printed robots are still far from reality, one can already assume that 3D robotics is the future. In addition to a few companies, many research institutions are now using this technology and it is already being used at various universities. It is therefore only a matter of time before 3D will dominate the robotics market.
If you are preparing for the future and want to keep your business processes modern, it is a good idea to invest in 3D printing in robotics. By using the latest technologies, you work flexibly, efficiently and economically on the one hand and ensure that your company is prepared for the challenges of the future on the other. It is worth carefully comparing the different offers and solutions of 3D robotics in order to arrive at a model that perfectly suits you and the needs of your company.
There are many different devices, each with a different focus and features. It is therefore not always easy to keep an overview and to be able to objectively assess which device is best suited to your own requirements. It is therefore a good idea to seek professional advice that will provide you with comprehensive and understandable information about 3D robotics.
