Hear from some of our amazing customers.

“We need to give the power to the people to understand cost and manufacturability of their parts without bugging experts and wasting their time and this is what 3D Spark is helping us to do.”

Marcel Ahlbrand
Advanced Development Chassis Components, ZF

Manufacturing as a service is a fast-paced market where rapid response to RFQs is crucial. 3D Spark automatizes costing and quotation by accurately modelling our materials, machines, pre- and post-process steps. Our quoting time decreased by 70% with 3D Spark, leading to 250% more orders. Furthermore, thanks to 3D Spark, we can effectively compare various AM processes with conventional manufacturing technologies. This capability is invaluable when advising on the best alternatives for specific parts, especially when customers are uncertain about choosing between AM or conventional manufacturing methods

Miguel Boix
CTO at FabiTive

The 3D Spark platform drastically reduces time and effort needed by my team to analyze 3D CADs and 2D drawings from daily Requests for Quotations (RFQs) regarding technical feasibility and precise, instant costing.

Dr.-Ing. Andreas Baum
CEO at MetShape

“Requesting a part via 3D Spark is intuitive and efficient. What's more, this self-service is designed for everyone, not just experts in additive manufacturing technologies, making these cutting-edge tools accessible to all ZF employees.”
