  • 3D Printing for Manufacturing and Design

    The use of 3D printing in the manufacturing and design industry has seen an exceptional level of growth over the past several years. This is because of the rapid advancements in 3D printing processes and materials, resulting in the ability to cost-effectively manufacture end-use parts that meet or exceed the quality of parts produced by other manufacturing methods. 3D printing simplifies manufacturing services, allowing for a simple three step approach; design, print, install. In contrast, traditional manufacturing process, such as injection molding or CNC machining, require multiple steps to create a product or part, and are limited in their ability to manufacture parts with complex geometries. Because of these limitations traditional manufacturing processes can be costly, inefficient, and time-consuming, especially for prototyping or short-run manufacturing. The use of industrial 3D printing (also known as additive manufacturing) has proven to be an excellent complement to traditional manufacturing, with unique benefits and cost savings being realized by an increasing number of designers and manufacturers in Canada and across the world. The additive manufacturing process of 3D printing allows designers the ability to efficiently deliver an accurate and effective product using a sustainable process that mitigates risks, allows for creativity and freedom in design, and provides an opportunity for truly customizable product manufacturing. While industrial 3D printing services in Canada are still a small sector of the market, it is becoming increasingly accessible and has proven itself as a viable and effective manufacturing approach. Tempus 3D helps fill the manufacturing gap in Canada with advanced 3D printing technology specifically designed for small-to-medium run manufacturing of end-use parts. Our specialty is HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing which is specifically designed to manufacture affordable, high-quality end-use plastic parts.

  • How strong are 3D printed parts?

    HP put industrial 3D printing to the test by lifting a 1995 Avalon with a 3D printed chain link produced using HP’s Multi Jet Fusion technology. The chain was printed in under an hour and weighs just 0.25 pounds. Check out this video to see how it performed.

  • 3D Scanning for Reverse Engineering, Metrology, and Computer Aided Inspection

    3D scanning provides the user with extremely accurate measurements and the ability to fully utilise, visualise and modify data with CAD software. 3D scanning is used in a wide range of applications including developing new product designs, taking precise measurements of objects with complex geometries, designing custom medical devices, digitizing items or products for legacy files, and more. The ability to rapidly capture high accuracy information means vast savings in productivity and time. What are the benefits of 3D scanning in industrial applications? There are numerous benefits to industrial 3D scanning, including: Broaden your design capabilities: Use models from the real world as a baseline to create CAD models that can be modified or adapted to fit your needs. Accelerate your time to market: Scan prototypes, parts, tooling, or other objects and use the file as a baseline create designs quickly and easily.​ Replace or repair legacy parts: Scan legacy parts and store the digital files until needed, then build on demand with CAD-based manufacturing such as 3D printing or CNC milling. Create a perfect fit: Scan an object to use as a baseline to create jigs, molds, casings, or assemblies that fit precisely. Extend the bounds of possibility: Create products that can not be made without scanning and digital editing, such as custom devices that perfectly fit the human body. Streamline your manufacturing: Add 3D scanning to your design and manufacturing process so you can do more work faster. Quality assurance and inspections: Using the 3D scan data, our reporting and analysis tools will tell you exactly what the “as-built” condition is and how much it varies from the pristine, “as-designed” CAD model. Simplify documentation and reporting: Easily archive or inventory legacy parts, create a BOM, or create a digital library of parts to manufacture on demand.
