End production for niche markets
Rapid prototyping and tooling are not just restricted to prototypes anymore, as it was in the beginning.
The materials and technologies have been further developed in such a way that they can serve a market for production series.
Low volume manufacturing is the ideal solution when your product is aimed at a limited audience. You can begin with a small series of your design and re-order on the fly.
This speech computer is a perfect example. Technology & Integration is a small company who expected a lot of the design of their new speech computer and was in need of small quantities of their product, aimed at a very small user group. They considered these two things difficult to combine and therefor relied on Materialise to reach their goal.
A limited series of the Tellus speech computer was produced in vacuum casting and put on the market in Belgium, The Netherlands, The UK, Germany and Sweden.
