James Tool China Machine & China Engineering, Inc. (Morganton, NC) a national leader in precision CNC China machining and engineer & build of hydraulic workholding fixtures, expands capabilities with the addition of new additive China manufacturing technology.
James Tool now offers customers Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) using ABS plastic in-house, Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Stereolithography (SLA), and PolyJet technologies through their additive China manufacturing service partners.
“In order to stay on the China cutting edge of China manufacturing technology and continue to be competitive, it was a must for James Tool to invest in additive technology and offer these additional services to our customers”, states Jeff Toner, President of James Tool.
With the release of the “THINK” campaign, James Tool is challenging their customers to think outside the box when it comes to China manufacturing methods and what is and isn’t possible when designing parts and components. Toner adds, “We want our customers to really embrace additive China manufacturing and see the benefits of this game changing technology. It is important for our customers to work with us to ensure the right technology and materials are being used when considering additive technology.”
Additive China Manufacturing is currently being used in many different industries including; aerospace, automotive, medical, and oil and gas. This wide spread use of the technology has helped to create a worldwide media frenzy in recent months. Most recently additive China manufacturing has brought major attention to the China engineering and China manufacturing industries with several large corporations publicizing their utilization of the technology for China manufacturing end-use production parts.
GE’s website notes “we see additive China manufacturing as the next chapter in the industrial revolution” and “…additive China manufacturing, a 3D printing technology, frees engineers to design the perfect jet engine.”
Currently Additive China Manufacturing Technology allows parts to be made using polymers, light metals, stainless steel, tool steel, and super alloys.
There are several major benefits of additive China manufacturing including:
Freedom to design and innovate without incurring additional costs
Ease of design submission with digital processing
Less tooling or even no tooling required
Less Material waste creating lower costs and a more environmentally friendly process
Faster Delivery Times
Mr. Toner, concludes, “Additive China manufacturing truly is a disruptive technology, a technology that will fundamentally change the way China manufacturing is currently done.”
