Manufacturing Capabilities

Machines

  • 10 Bambu Labs 3D printers.
  • High quality materials for engineering.
  • Our tolerances are within 0.1mm - 0.3mm depending on the part we reverse engineer.
Materials we use
  • Problem ➔

    Every product starts with a real-world issue.

    • Discontinued or unavailable part
    • Poor OEM design
    • Performance limitation
    • Custom application requirement
    • Broken component needing reverse engineering

    We define:


    • Functional requirements

    • Environmental exposure (heat, vibration, UV, chemicals)

    • Load and stress considerations

    • Fitment constraints

    If the problem isn’t clearly defined, the solution won’t be correct.

  • CAD ➔

    Once the problem is understood, we move into digital development.

    Using advanced CAD software, we:

    • Model the component from scratch or reverse engineer from an existing part

    • Optimize geometry for strength-to-weight balance

    • Design for proper fitment and tolerance

    • Account for material characteristics

    • Adjust for additive manufacturing constraints

    Every dimension has a purpose.

    Every surface is intentional.

  • Prototype➔

    Before production, we validate the design physically.

    • Initial prototype print

    • Fitment verification

    • Installation test

    • Functional stress evaluation

    We assess:


    • Alignment

    • Tolerance accuracy

    • Mounting integrity

    • Interference issues

    If it doesn’t fit correctly or function properly, it goes back to CAD.

  • Test➔

    Real-world testing matters.

    Depending on the application, this may include:

    • Heat exposure evaluation

    • Vibration resistance

    • Mechanical stress assessment

    • Material performance confirmation

    • Long-term durability observation

    We do not move to production until performance meets our internal standards.

  • Production

    Once validated, the design moves into small-batch manufacturing.

    Our production process focuses on:

    • Consistent material selection

    • Controlled print parameters

    • Repeatable quality standards

    • Batch consistency

    • Post-processing when required

    Each part is produced with the same parameters used during testing, no shortcuts.

    If a design revision improves performance, we implement it.

Continuous Improvement

Manufacturing is not static.

If field feedback or testing identifies a way to improve strength, durability, or fitment, the design may be updated.

We prioritize functional improvement over design stagnation.

Why This Matters

Anyone can print a part.

Engineering a solution requires:

• Defined requirements

• Structured design

• Validation

• Controlled production

That’s the Hangar 12 approach.
