At Multi-Wing, we understand that turning innovative ideas into new products is vital to our customers’ success. The question is how to put those innovative products in your hands as quickly as possible while increasing the flexibility and quality in our product development. The answer is rapid prototyping.

For several years Multi-Wing has used rapid prototyping to make 3D models of new products based on CAD files through direct digital manufacturing. Once a product moves from concept into the prototyping process, we put each component through a series of rigorous tests to ensure the highest quality and performance. In continuing our commitment to improve flexibility and quality, we have invested in the new Stratasys FDM 400 mc rapid prototyping machine.

With the new Stratasys FDM 400 mc, Multi-Wing engineers can easily make modifications and optimize prototype performance by improving design characteristics before creating molds and casting new parts. By improving our direct digital manufacturing capabilities, we can reduce the high cost and wait time in tooling, so our customers receive innovative new products in a fraction of the time at a price they can afford.

Multi-Wing’s new rapid prototyping machine is also ideal for our customers’ test projects. The Stratasys FDM 400 mc enables us to design an impeller for your specific application that is extremely accurate dimensionally and strong enough to test in actual applications. That means you can see results quickly, make any modifications, and see a final product without ever going to casting.

Multi-Wing’s improved prototyping capabilities further streamline the product development process, achieving higher flexibility and quality while reducing costs and time to market. The new Stratasys FDM 400 mc is just one more example of Multi-Wing’s continuing commitment as the worldwide leader in manufacturing axial flow fans.
