Threaded inserts for your 3D printed parts!
Adding mechanical interfaces to 3D printed plastic parts is a recurring challenge. With our configurator, designers can easily include metallic threads into their designs.
Fast – reliable – fully automated.
Our solution.
Reinventing mechanical interfaces for 3D printed parts.
The 3D insert consists of three components: a metallic threaded insert, an AM optimized female cutout and an AM polymer clip. By exploiting AM’s geometrical complexity, the design has several advantages compared to conventional solutions.
Reusable.
The 3D insert is reusable thanks to the reversible connection design.
Fast assembly.
The installation process is quick and does not require specialized tools – a simple Allen key is sufficient.
Strong form fit.
The 3D insert is locked through a form fit, which results in a strong mechanical connection.
