Case study · CAD design + FDM 3D printing
A client needed a custom housing for a bushing application where no suitable off-the-shelf component was available. Seked Labs developed the geometry, produced the engineering drawing and manufactured the parts in-house.
The part needed to locate and support the bushing while fitting within the surrounding assembly. With no suitable standard component available, the housing had to be designed around the actual application rather than adapted from an existing part.
The application and critical interfaces were translated into a purpose-designed housing.
An engineering drawing was produced to define the part and the dimensions that mattered.
The housings were FDM 3D printed in-house and produced as a repeatable small batch.
The completed housings provided a practical custom solution without waiting for a bespoke conventional manufacturing route. The parts were designed, documented and manufactured within the client's required timescale.
Send a model, drawing, sketch or engineering requirement. Seked Labs can support the design as well as the FDM manufacture, from one-off development parts to repeatable small batches.
