Case Study: Rosti Suzhou accelerates fixture production and cuts costs with UltiMaker 3D printing

Rosti From concept to reality with Ultimaker

Rosti Suzhou, a contract manufacturer and injection molding specialist, faced challenges in producing manufacturing assembly fixtures in a timely and cost-efficient manner. Their previous prototyping methods were too slow for customer demands, and outsourcing led to bottlenecks. To address this, they turned to vendor UltiMaker and began using an Ultimaker 3 Extended 3D printer.

The solution was expanded with the implementation of the UltiMaker S5 Pro Bundle, which enabled the use of high-strength, fiber-reinforced materials. This allowed Rosti to create durable fixtures for production environments. The results were significant, reducing the cost per part from $450 to $15 and slashing lead times from 7 days to just 6 hours, drastically accelerating their product development cycle and time to market for customers.
