Aerospace and Defense
Aerospace was one of the first industries to adopt 3D printing. Engineers and designers recognized digital manufacturing’s role in speedily creating lightweight geometrically complex parts and part consolidation. 3D printed components can be used for design models and validation, customization, and fly-away production parts. The Aerospace and Defense industries use digitally manufactured parts for wind tunnel models, prototyping, fixtures, guides, templates, gauges, FST-rated interior components, etc.
For Quality Assurance, Midwest Prototyping is AS9100 D Certified.

Automotive
Quickly think of as many makes and models of automobiles that you can in 30 seconds. I bet you came up with quite a list. Each one of those vehicles has hundreds of custom parts specific to that make, model, and year. Suppose you are an engineer for a major vehicle manufacturer or OEM supplier needing prototypes and low to medium-volume production. In that case, digital manufacturing is an ideal solution with reduced lead times, no tooling cost, and lower cost per part.

Consumer Products
From scoring the winning touchdown to running that extra mile, from making a smoothie to reading a book with those perfectly fitted glasses, digital manufacturing can play a role in all. Football, hockey, and biking (pedal and motor) are just a few sports that use 3D-printed parts in helmets, padding, and even the soles of shoes—consumer appliances such as blenders, headphones, refrigerators, and many more house digitally manufactured components. The possibilities are endless.

Dental, Medical, and Sciences
Additive manufacturing is used for medical devices, from operating tools to bedside monitors to pre-surgical models. It is also used in prosthetics, custom joint replacements, and dentures. Medicine and the medical industry can benefit significantly from the ability of 3D printing to accommodate mass customization and complex parts and assemblies that can’t be made any other way.

Design Firms
You never know when a great idea will strike. People come up with brilliant new ideas and improvements to existing products, and most don’t know how to make those concepts a reality. Design firms are the next step; they take ideas, put them on paper, and create CAD files. We work with design firms to make their digital models into physical prototypes. When ready to move on to the next step, Midwest can transition to full-scale production of your parts.
