Digital Factory + Digital Manufacturing
Giving you the technology and tools to shape the future of your manufacturing operations using production 3D printing & Additive Manufacturing. Rapid 3D are Technology Partners for proven production 3D Printer manufacturers, 3D Scanning, and Post-processing equipment in South Africa and sub-Saharan Africa.
How can Rapid 3D help you?
Many vendors of 3D printers, 3D Design Software, and 3D Scanners simply want to sell you their technology — regardless of whether that technology is suited to your application. There is a better way, one that won’t leave you dismissing 3D printing, simply because you were sold the wrong technology package.
Here’s how Rapid 3D works with you to ensure you join the successful Innovators and Early Adopters, who have been using 3D printing as a competitive advantage for the last 20 years.
Additive Minds
Trained by the multi-year award winning Additive Minds team in Germany, Rapid 3D employs the same proven process used with with the likes of Mercedes, BMW and Airbus to determine your best 3D printing strategy.
Part Selection
We work with you to select the parts most suited to the benefits of Additive Manufacturing.
We then work with your engineers to optimise your parts for Additive Manufacturing.
Technology Selection
There are a range of 3D printing technologies, each best suited for a set of applications.
We work with you to determine the best technology fit.
Production Work-flow
Printing parts using 3D printers is only one step in your work-flow.
We work with you to determine the best post processing and factory automation options.
Financial Feasibility
If your investment doesn’t provide the returns you are looking to achieve, then you have taken a step back, not forwards.
We work with you to ensure the economics of 3D printing work for your operations.
3D Printing Technology Partnerships are a critical success factor.
Proven technology platforms, materials, and processes are critical to the success of implementing Additive Manufacturing into your manufacturing operations.
Many have chosen a supplier and technology for the wrong reasons. The end result is that they determined that 3D printing doesn’t work. When in fact, the issue was the lack of a proven process to determine the various aspects of production when employing 3D printing into an existing manufacturing operation.
When you partner with Rapid 3D, you get the benefit of local knowledge, proven technologies, processes and systems.
Rapid 3D is the Authorised Partner and Supplier for the following 3D Printing, 3D Scanning, and 3D Design Software technologies in South Africa and sub-Saharan Africa.
