Dixon Valve has successfully used Markforged composite 3D printers for End of Arm Tooling (EOAT) but faced durability issues with grippers handling abrasive surfaces. By switching to Metal X 3D printing, they now achieve the benefits of 3D printing while ensuring their parts can withstand the demands of tough applications.
This innovation allows lifting tools to be 3D printed, cutting shipment time, reducing warehousing needs, and lowering costs compared to traditional tools. The lighter, more compact design is easy to transport and accelerates product development by enabling quick creation of custom tools for pilot projects.
