Typically, when jigs are used to assemble automotive parts, there are two downsides:

1. They are difficult to maintain
2. They are extremely heavy

With the help of a Fortus 3D printer from Stratasys, Solaxis is able to design and manufacture jigs without these negative factors interfering. Not only were they able to produce a 3D printed jig that is over 100 pounds lighter than normal, but it also cut the design and manufacturing time by a significant amount.

Topic Overview: 

1. Increase design flexibility 
2. Decrease design and manufacturing time
3. Solve compliance issues
