The use of jigs and fixtures for vehicle assembly is very common in the automotive industry.

With the implementation of 3D printing in the production line, custom positioners can be created for each project, making the operator's work more accurate, faster and safer, thus increasing the overall productivity of the plant.

3D printing works as a spare parts production plant in itself. In a company with production and assembly lines, a plant shutdown means loss of money.

This is where printers play a fundamental role, as they become a key player in developing and manufacturing optimized spare parts for different machinery.

From simulation and surgical planning to functional prostheses, 3D printing can improve the quality of life of patients as well as simplify tasks for doctors in complex operations.

Materializing a project, performing dimensional and functional tests, is not only possible but also economical and fast thanks to 3D printing.

When testing new products, engineering teams can rely on FDM additive manufacturing to prototype in different materials or create final parts for their processes.

One of the outstanding qualities of additive manufacturing is the creation of complex, different geometries that would be very difficult to produce with traditional manufacturing processes.

This possibility allows designers and artists to create pieces that defy the limits of imagination and that have a real differential in their design.

3D printing allows IoT companies to manufacture customized cases according to their needs and thus avoid having to work with standard cabinets that are poorly adapted to their product/sensors and with an aesthetic of another time.

This allows to optimize the space and therefore the size of the product and to customize it both in terms of design and logo.

Simplifying processes is one of the premises of 3D printing in the current era, which is why many architectural and urban planning firms create their complex models at any scale using additive manufacturing, taking advantage of its low manufacturing cost.

In academic environments, both in basic and undergraduate training, digital tools are an indispensable means for classroom production, to which is progressively incorporated technology that stimulates and facilitates learning such as 3D printing; a resource that offers versatility in the projection and realization of different ideas according to the field of development.
