Case Study: GS E&C achieves faster architectural scale model production with Stratasys F770 3D printing

3D Printing Architectural Scale Models at GS E&C

GS E&C, a leading South Korean construction company, faced challenges in reviewing complex architectural designs and collaborating with stakeholders using only 3D digital models. Their previous small 3D printers were inefficient for producing large, precise scale models, leading to time-consuming assembly and reduced quality. To improve pre-construction reviews, they sought a large-format 3D printing solution from vendor Stratasys.

The solution was the implementation of the Stratasys F770 3D printer, which features a large build chamber and uses durable thermoplastics. This allowed GS E&C to efficiently produce high-quality, single-piece architectural models. The results were significant, including a 30-40% reduction in model production time, improved collaborative design reviews, a reduction in design changes, and the proactive mitigation of construction risks, strengthening their competitive edge.
