Learn how CGX systems was able to simplify their supply chain, reduce time to market and improve their product design for their EEG headsets using MJF technology. Case study: CGX HEADSETS CGX uses Multi Jet Fusion technology to create innovative designs, simplify supply chain, and reduce time to market. "Over the past 2 years using HP MJF, we’ve noticed significant improvements in material stability, finishing techniques, and turnaround time. This explains why MJF is the focal point of our design process. We have several ground-breaking products in the R&D stage today that were simply unbuildable just 3 years ago.” Key bene fits Able to manufacture 95% of EEG headset parts with MJF technology. Labor hours cut from 30 hours to 15 hours. Significant savings in cost and lead times. Lighter, stronger, more robust parts. Able to quickly and easily modify and improve design of prototypes and end-use parts. The biocompatibility certification of the materials enables their use for medical devices. Organization CGX Systems Industry Medical Technology HP Multi Jet Fusion Materials HP PA12, HP PA11 Introduction CGX Systems is a medical innovation company which is a leader in designing and manufacturing dry electroencephalogram (EEG) headsets and dry electrodes. During the development and commercialization phase of the EEG technology their manufacturing processes were limiting the ability to design and manufacture high-quality products quickly and effectively. Challenge CGX designs and manufactures its own EEG devices which are used to monitor brain activity. As they transitioned from the design to the manufacturing process, the developers wanted a more efficient production method and better materials than the ones they were using at the time. Some of the parts were 3D printed with ABS filaments, but this resulted in quality control issues and the end result was not aesthetically pleasing. Other production methods they tried, including gravity casting and polyurethane, were too slow to keep up with demand. Injection molding was not an economical option as it was too expensive for the low-volume production runs and the highly specialized design. CGX needed a solution that could efficiently build low-volume, specialized systems using materials that were robust, biocompatible, and easy to manufacture. Solution CGX enlisted the help of a 3D printing service bureau with HP Multi Jet Fusion technology to provide a solution to their challenges. They started playing with multiple design iterations of functional prototypes to optimize their headset design, and were able to gain significant savings in cost and lead times over their previous prototyping and manufacturing processes. “We took all of our gravity cast parts and switched them to HP Multi Jet Fusion because there were a lot more possibilities with it... we even started making some of our molds out of HP MJF because it was consistent and it lasted longer than what we were using previously. We really tried to focus on using HP Multi Jet Fusion for all parts of our manufacturing." Result CGX now manufactures 95% of their headset parts with Multi Jet Fusion. Because the same technology is used for prototyping and manufacturing they can easily modify their products as they go. “We can... rapidly design because we’re not putting time and dollars into molds or tooling, so we’re able to modify our headset designs for continual improvement”. Another benefit is the robust and flexible nature of the materials, which can stand up to long-term wear and tear. “HP MJF has really helped. When you design correctly, it’s basically indestructible. That really helps us improve our overall design. Our first-generation EEG was heavier, less elegant, and could become uncomfortable for sensitive subjects. Our new designs are significantly more user friendly.” Other benefits CGX experienced with Multi Jet Fusion are speed and efficiency of production. Their labor hours were cut in half from 30 hours to 15 hours, while designing more sophisticated parts with more features than they could with other manufacturing technologies. “HP MJF changed our business. We are able to design and produce far more sophisticated devices while reducing design and manufacturing time by almost 50%.

An RV owner could not find a replacement door handle for his RV, and was looking for a manufacturer that could upgrade the design and manufacture a new handle. They collaborated with Tempus 3D to re-design the part to their satisfaction and manufacture a replacement. The final part was 3D printed with HP Multi Jet Fusion technology, using Nylon PA12 for it's ability to withstand long-term weather and UV damage. Read the full article to learn more. Case Study - Creating Replacement Parts for Marine Applications with 3D Scanning and 3D Printing A boat owner in Trail BC broke a critical part in the throttle mechanism in his boat and was unable to source an affordable replacement. The owner was able to improve the part design and manufacture a replacement quickly and affordably, with the help of Tempus 3D's 3D scanning and additive manufacturing technology. Key Benefits Reduce cost of replacement parts. Create replacements when parts are unavailable. Opportunity to improve design and performance to eliminate future failures. Reduce environmental impact by replacing parts instead of discarding assemblies. Industry Marine, replacement parts, consumer goods Partners Selkirk Technology Access Centre Selkirk College Digital Fabrication & Design Technology HP Multi Jet Fusion 5200 3D printer Creaform HandySCAN Material HP Nylon PA12 Software Fusion 360 Post Processing Black dye Introduction Paul was heading out for a day on the lake with his family when a critical component in his boat failed, forcing him to bring the boat back to shore and cancel his plans. The failure happened in the throttle assembly as he was heading out for a day on the water. The plastic trigger that engages the throttle had snapped, leaving Paul unable to operate the boat. The boat was limped to shore where it was loaded onto the boat trailer and hauled back to town. Challenge The boat was taken to a local marine repair shop for diagnostics. It was quickly determined that the failure was due to the broken piece of red plastic located within the throttle control housing, as shown in the picture. The marine repair shop informed Paul that the piece was not available for purchase individually and he would have to purchase an entire throttle assembly. This seemed unnecessarily expensive and wasteful, so Paul decided to seek other solutions. Paul's first thought was to superglue the broken pieces back together. This was the simplest solution, but he knew this was a temporary fix and the part would break again under similar circumstances. When the part originally broke Paul was fortunate to be close to shore, but the last thing he wanted was for the part to break again in an isolated area. He decided that superglue was not an acceptable solution and began to explore other options. As he considered his options, Paul realized that a friend of his had a son who may be able to help him out. The individual was employed as a summer student at the Selkirk Technology Access Center and had experience with CAD modelling and 3D printing. Paul reached out to the student and brought him the broken part, only to be told that the part was too complex to be easily designed without a great deal of time and effort. He was also told that not all 3D printing processes or materials would be suitable for building a replacement part, as many 3D printing processes are weak between the printing layers. Solution It seemed as though Paul would have to buy a new assembly after all, which would be costly and require a lot of installation work. But as luck would have it the summer student consulted with the Digital Fabrication and Design department within Selkirk College, who proposed an alternate solution. The student was able to use 3D scanning technology to create a digital CAD file of the broken part. The CAD file was then used to reverse-engineer the part to fit the original housing. The design was also improved by increasing the material thickness where original part failed. To test the design, a prototype was created with PLA plastic on a consumer-grade FDM printer. The prototype was used to test the fit and function of the part before final production. Once the prototype was tested and approved, the design was brought to Tempus 3D to be manufactured with a material robust enough to withstand abuse and prolonged exposure to the elements. The team at Tempus recommended building the final part with Nylon 12 , using HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) 3D printing technology. Nylon 12 is a robust production-grade plastic which is resistant to moisture, chemicals and UV light, suutabel for use in marine applications and outdoor environments. MJF technology is designed for commercial production of affordable end-use parts, and the unique printing process provides the density and strength needed for long-term use. This technology is used by major manufacturers such as Volkswagen, BMW and Ford, making it a logical choice for this application. Res ult The combination of an upgraded part design, robust material and a commercial manufacturing process resulted in a part much stronger than the original, which was made with injection-moulded plastic. Paul was able to save time and money while improving the part design and minimizing unnecessary waste.

Learn how DustRam uses Multi Jet Fusion technolgy to reduce production time, lower costs, build lighter parts and get ahead of the competition with it's dustless tile chipping hammers. Case Study DustRam optimizes production and saves costs with Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing technology “I was pretty skeptical at first until I saw the machine in action and realized I could print about four times as many items in about 1/10 of the time and at about 1/2 to 3/4 of the cost. The quality of the parts approached the fit and finish of parts made from expensive molds. This is a game changer in so many obvious ways.” Key benefits Reduced production time from 4-5 months for original metal parts to just days for the MJF plastic parts. Parts are lighter, more rugged, and more effective than the original design. Production costs were reduced by 50-75%. The weight of the vacuum head was reduced 68% compared to the original metal part. The cost of the nylon from HP was more than 10x less expensive than the nylon required for their previous 3D printing technology. Data courtesy of HP and Dustram. Photo courtesy of HP. Organization Dustram Industry Industrial machinery and equipment Technology HP Multi Jet Fusion Material Nylon PA12 Introduction DustRam manufactures chipping hammer equipment to enable safe, dust-free removal of a variety of materials including paint, adhesive, tile, thinset, stone and brick. The parts needed to be rugged and able to withstand an abusive environment without breaking down. The original version was made with aluminum and tool steel, which took 4-5 months to produce. The company turned to 3D printing to reduce production time, lower costs, and reduce the weight of the parts. Now, DustRam uses Multi Jet Fusion technology to produce more rugged and effective equipment while decreasing costs and production time. Challenge DustRam's original chipping hammer attachment was made with machined aluminum and tool steel. The manufacturing process included CNC machining, TIG welding, heat treat and wire EDM. This process took 4-5 months to produce a set of 10-15 vacuum heads, and the end product was heavy and expensive to produce. The company decided to switch to plastic to make the parts lighter and save production costs. The manufacturer originally used an FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printer for prototyping, but this technology was slow and the end product was not strong or aesthetically pleasing enough to be used for final part production. Injection molding was prohibitively expensive for the small production runs they were producing, and did not provide the flexibility needed for ongoing design revisions. Solution Dustram embraced 3D printing to produce parts for it's equipment, and as of November 2018 was 3D printing approximately 60 different parts and 25 different fixtures for their equipment and associated products. The company compared their current processes to HP Multi Jet Fusion technology and calculated that they could increase productivity by four times and reduce costs by 50-75%. Jack King, president of Dustram LLC, says “The quality of the parts approached the fit and finish of parts made from expensive molds. I manufacture extremely high-quality equipment in low numbers, so purchasing expensive molds that I could never change did not make a lot of sense.” Result The resulting savings in time, weight, and costs for many of their parts were impressive. For example, it took approximately 120 hours to print one complete PulseRam vacuum head with FDM technology, compared to about 17 hours with Multi Jet Fusion. The weight of this part was reduced 68% from 4.63 kg for the original metal part to 1.45 kg with HP PA12, and the cost of production was reduced by more than $2,000 USD . The cost of nylon 3D printing material was also much less expensive than their previous 3D printing technology. “For example: With the other printer I used to use, it would cost approximately $78,345 to purchase their nylon compared to $7,150 from HP. The nylon from HP is more than 10 times less expensive.” “My industry of dust-free tile removal is poised for tremendous growth,” King says. “Having an HP MJF printer will allow me to surpass and stay ahead of the competition as it comes.” View the full case study by HP Learn more about HP Multi Jet Fusion https://www.tempus3d.com/hp-multi-jet-fusion Learn more about HP PA12 https://www.tempus3d.com/hp-nylon-pa12 How to design for Multi Jet Fusion https://www.tempus3d.com/hp-multi-jet-fusion-design-guide Photos courtesy of HP and DustRam.
