Why Professionals Choose MakerBot
Gain Added Design Confidence and Reduce Risk
From concept models to test assemblies, 3D printing gives you the unique ability to quickly hold your CAD design in just hours. Whether you are designing electronics housing or an interior latch you’ll probably want to check fit and function before it gets to production (or at least before your boss finds a mistake).
Just print, review, make a design change, and print a new one - all well before your deadline.
Produce easy and affordable jigs & fixtures for the assembly line
Every good manufacturing line is always optimizing to increase efficiency and quality, while decreasing employee strain and fatigue. 3D printing allows manufacturing engineers like you to quickly design jigs and fixtures to make your teams more effective. Then get feedback, iterate on your design, and print another. If a fixture breaks or a gauge goes missing - just print another.
Fast-Turn Manufacturing Tools and Aids
Constant improvement on the assembly line means quickly identifying an opportunity and acting on it. With a 3D printer by your side, you can work with the assembly technicians to design and produce tools to save time, reduce human strain, and increase line consistency.
Within hours you can design and print gauges, drill jigs, alignment fixtures, and ergonomic tools. Maximize your team’s productivity with a digital library of tools - the next time that door gap gauge goes missing just print a new one on-demand.

“The METHOD X 3D printer has evolved as a tool, providing us with a high level of reliability during part production. In our line of business, this is essential – especially in comparison to other 3D printers where there’s a risk that the final part will not come out as you’d expect."
