Lighting

Discover how to apply 3D printing in various departments within the lighting sector

Process Engineering

The Process Engineering department in the lighting sector is responsible for designing and optimising production processes for lighting devices to improve their efficiency, quality, and productivity.

Cost reduction associated with the manufacturing of final components

Risk reduction associated with the assembly of encapsulations

Verification of correct assembly through prototypes

3D Printing Applications in the Lighting Sector

Fit Prototypes

Fit prototypes help verify whether the connections and fittings between parts are appropriate, whether the components assemble correctly, and whether they meet aesthetic and functional requirements. They can be manufactured using 3D printing, which allows for rapid iteration and customisation of designs.

Internal final components

3D printing allows the creation of customised and complex designs with high precision and speed, which can be beneficial for the production of high-quality internal final components such as lamp holders, fastening parts, heat sinks, and other electronic components.

Tooling

Tooling is used in the production of lighting components and products. With 3D printing, you can design and manufacture all kinds of specialised tools, moulds, assembly templates, fixtures, parts, and mechanisms, which can help you in your daily work in a much more economical and faster way.

Companies in your sector work with these products and services

UltiMaker S5

Easy-to-use desktop 3D printer with a large print volume that tirelessly produces precise, industrial-quality parts. Thanks to simple setup, high uptime, and reliable dual extrusion, the UltiMaker S5 is the complete professional 3D printing solution.

UltiMaker S7

It meets all user requirements, resulting in a device that offers maximum freedom, reliability, and connectivity. Induction bed levelling with sensor ensures a perfect first layer and the integrated Air Manager keeps the print volume at an optimally regulated temperature. Depletion and fan support sensors will stop the print and notify you if you run out of filament or if a jam causes a flood in the print head.

UltiMaker METHOD X

FDM 3D printer with which you can produce manufacturing tools and production parts according to project specifications with the complete catalogue of UltiMaker polymers and composites. Print with genuine manufacturing-grade materials with superior strength and accuracy in a heated chamber at 110°C.

Polymaker Polybox Filament Drybox

3D filament storage box that allows you to store your materials in an optimal printing environment while printing with them. It features a thermo-hygrometer to monitor the filaments inside the box. Humidity is regulated by large desiccant bags that absorb moisture from the air inside the PolyBox™.

PETG Spool

PETG is an ideal production material for an FFF 3D printer. This material is easy to handle, resulting in a tough and strong final part.

ABS Spool

Filament spool for 3D printers with excellent stability and impact resistance.

BASF Ultrafuse PAHT CF15 Spool

BASF Ultrafuse PAHT CF15 polyamide combines high chemical and high-temperature resistance with extreme mechanical properties. Additionally, it ensures easy printing and has high dimensional stability. ESD safe.

PC Spool

With polycarbonate, the moulded parts are solid and resistant, maintaining dimensional stability when subjected to temperatures up to 110 ºC. The properties of the 3D printing material make it perfect for moulds, tools, functional prototypes, and short-run production parts.

VZ Industries VZ Cabinet

This practical cabinet made of steel is designed in cooperation with UltiMaker and made especially for UltiMaker S5/Pro Bundle and UltiMaker S7/Pro Bundle. NEN-62368-1 certified.
