The #formnext2023 trade show is off to an amazing start, and we at Lines Manufacturing are thrilled to showcase our groundbreaking solutions for large-scale end-use parts. This year, we are presenting two compelling use cases that highlight our capability to deliver true serial outcomes of up to thousands of units per year.

Revolutionizing Production with Speed and Efficiency

Imagine producing a 2m wide cockpit in just 120 minutes. Our advanced technology enables this remarkable achievement through high printing speeds, paving the way for the production of 960 parts per year—all while maintaining competitive costs and eliminating tooling overhead.

Traditional manufacturing methods often lead to high costs, long time to market, and limited design flexibility. In contrast, Lines’ digital manufacturing solutions serve as a key driver for rapid iteration during the industrialization phase, allowing you to launch production in a matter of days.

Compliance and Cost Savings

By leveraging existing and certified raw pellet references, we can ensure that our products are compliant with EN standards, providing peace of mind for every application. Our approach not only enhances product safety but also delivers significant cost savings when managing supplies of several tons. For instance, we initially used glass fiber reinforced polypropylene to produce the first units, later transitioning to PC-ABS, which is compliant with EN 45545-2 for serial use.
