Case Study: H. Gautzsch Firmengruppe advances AM research and supply-chain exploration with Sinterit Lisa 3D printing

H. Gautzsch Firmengruppe broadens AM lab with Sinterit Lisa 3D printer and over 1,000 employees

The customer, H. Gautzsch Firmengruppe, a German distribution giant, faced the challenge of potential disruption to its business model from the rise of additive manufacturing (AM). To explore how AM could influence the future of distribution and manufacturing, they launched an in-house AM lab and sought a solution from vendor Sinterit.

Sinterit provided its Lisa PRO SLS 3D printer, an economically feasible solution that required no extra ventilation and occupied minimal space. This allowed Gautzsch to experiment with advanced polymers, prototype new products, and explore the feasibility of local versus international supplies. The solution gave the company invaluable insight into future products and distribution networks, equipping them to excel with new capabilities in the evolving manufacturing landscape.
