April 2022, MARIETTA, GA ~ Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, isn’t the future anymore. It’s here now. And it’s gaining ground steadily against traditional manufacturing. 3D printing is now found in tool and die production, custom implants, pilot line manufacturing, and mass production.

Additive manufacturing allows manufacturers to build complex parts quickly and cost-effectively—all while boosting part quality. This approach saves on material waste/energy, reduces the need for carrying much on-hand inventory, and simplifies and optimizes legacy part production, to name a few of its benefits.

Thermal processing technology is a cost-effective alternative for achieving part quality in 3D post-production. Industrial ovens play a critical role in this thermal processing effort. The right oven improves the firmness, tensile strength, heat resistance, and machinability of a 3D part, among benefits.

Despatch is a leading industrial oven manufacturer with a wide range of industrial ovens and furnaces designed to accommodate a variety of load sizes and production volumes. Despatch is known for tighter temperature tolerances, higher yields, and consistent, repeatable results. Their industrial ovens deliver invariable, uniform temperature for as long as the oven is in service thanks to its solid build quality and design. They also go to great lengths to move their products to market faster, providing short lead times and quick delivery.
