Case Study: Hyundai Motors achieves 77% reduction in manual work and faster, more efficient prototyping with Materialise Streamics and e-Stage

Hyundai Motors Improves Production Efficiency with Automation Software

Hyundai Motors faced inefficient management of its additive manufacturing (RP) prototyping work, relying on Excel sheets, manual reports and phone calls to schedule builds, track statuses and communicate changes. To streamline production and support generation, they turned to Materialise, deploying Materialise Streamics for centralized production management and Materialise e-Stage for automated support generation.

Materialise implemented Streamics to consolidate order, machine and part data with real-time status updates and custom reporting, while e-Stage automated support placement. As a result, Materialise helped Hyundai Motors reduce manual work hours by 77%, cut material use by 13%, lower data-preparation time by 94%, and shorten build time (down 30%) along with faster post-processing — improving part quality, throughput and customer service.
