Motorbike Accessory Manufacturing
We 3D printed the SLA for this project of a motorbike light mount & vacuum cast a production run of 40. These were finished matt-black & turned around within 3 weeks.
We were approached by the Managing Director of Moto-Mate, Phil, who shared his designs with our qualified manufacturing team along with his target price and volume of parts. We assessed the project and came back with several options for him. These included direct manufacture options with SLS or MJF, or the more tried and tested vacuum casting process.
Phil opted, on this occasion, to go down the vacuum casting route. He wanted to be able to offer his customers a really neat, well-finished, matt black, robust light mount. This is something our 3D manufacturing workforce was more than capable of achieving.
We generated the SLA from Phil’s CAD model, discussed how we would make the tool with him to ensure the best possible finish and as soon as we had 1st off parts from the tool, we sent them to him to inspect.
Once they were approved, we proceeded with the production run of 40 sets, and they were delivered within 3 weeks of starting the project at the price Phil needed them. This was a direct manufacture, vacuum casting project that was delivered within budget, on time & exceeded expectations.
