Automate manual processes, and optimize for success.

3D Spark is a B2B Manufacturing & Procurement Platform which helps you to identify the cheapest, quickest and most sustainable way to manufacture or buy components, with current focus on industrial Additive Manufacturing.

3D Spark offers comprehensive solutions for manufacturing & procurement businesses, addressing crucial aspects of their operations:

‍Part Order Management: With 3D Spark, businesses can seamlessly handle part requests from initiation to fulfillment. The platform allows for the reception of part requests, conducts thorough cost and manufacturability analyses to determine feasibility, and also helps generate accurate and smart quotes using market price insights. This streamlined approach optimizes the entire part request process, saving time and other resources.

‍Manufacturing Management and Tracking: 3D Spark can be used for efficiently managing different manufacturing technologies. Manufacturers can utilize the platform for resource allocation, production planning enabling powerful C-level reporting on cost, lead time, and CO₂ savings potentials. This ensures transparency, accountability, and optimized workflow management.

If your business focuses on manufacturing and/or procurement of printed parts, especially in industries like automotive, railway, aviation, etc. or if you run a 3D printing facility, 3D Spark is tailored for you.

It helps streamline production and part order processes and automates tasks such as cost estimation, quoting, RFQ preparations, and CO₂ tracking helping businesses to reduce costs, lead-time and carbon footprint in part manufacturing and procurement.

3D Spark is designed for the following departments:
‍
Manufacturing: Reduces the efforts required by AM experts, engineers, and technical sales reps for answering manufacturing requests or RFQs regarding manufacturability, printability, technology comparison, make cost, and quote price and quote generation.

‍Procurement: Helps purchasers determine in-house production feasibility and cost for any part, speeding up Make or Buy decisions by being able to estimate the buy price via the target price queries from their listed suppliers supports and hence reducing RFQs required.

‍Engineering: Provides instant feedback on manufacturability and production costs, aiding in component design, especially for Design to Cost & Design for Manufacturability Engineers.

‍Sustainability: Analyzes the Carbon Footprint for each production option and thus enables more sustainable decision-making as well as tracking CO₂ emissions and savings.

‍AM Corporate Departments: Helps AM Managers organize, distribute, and oversee AM activities, enabling powerful C-level reporting on cost, lead time, and CO₂ savings potentials.

Manufacturing Service Providers (MSPs)/3D Printing hubs can use 3D Spark to automate manufacturability and production costs analysis. This capability translates to a substantial reduction in quoting time, freeing up valuable company resources.

With this time saved, sales representatives can dedicate their efforts to revenue generation, while technical experts can focus on value creation. In essence, 3D Spark empowers MSPs to streamline their operations, enhance productivity, and drive business growth.

The platform is designed for rapid deployment, becoming fully operational within 24 hours from the start of implementation. This expedited setup process encompasses a suite of features:

You can analyse 15+ manufacturing technologies to identify the most economical, fastest and ecological manufacturing technology for your part.
