Case Study: SawBlaze achieves rapid parts sourcing for BattleBots with Xometry

Buzzsaw-Brandishing Bot Bets on Xometry for Fast Lead Times

SawBlaze, a BattleBots team competing in robotics, needed to quickly source a wide range of high-performance metal and plastic parts to keep up with the fast pace of the competition. The team used Xometry’s manufacturing services, including sheet cutting, CNC machining, and 3D printing, to get the custom components they needed for their modular robot design and rapid repairs.

Xometry provided SawBlaze with fast quotes, quick turnaround times, and an easy-to-use Instant Quoting Engine® and SOLIDWORKS add-in, helping the team streamline design iteration and resupply parts between matches. The result was faster manufacturing feedback, greater scheduling certainty, and reliable access to critical components that helped SawBlaze stay competitive throughout the BattleBots season.
