3D printing gives Riemann control, flexibility, and faster delivery<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n

With additive technologies, Riemann has reduced lead time from 150 days to under two weeks and strengthened their security of supply and sustainability.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n

The challenge: Long lead times and limited influence<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n

As a smaller player, Riemann A\/S experienced low priority with their suppliers of plastic parts produced via traditional injection moulding in Italy. They were seen as a \u201csmall fish\u201d and therefore faced lead times of up to 150 days. This created significant production bottlenecks and hindered the company\u2019s ability to adapt quickly to market needs. In addition, the traditional manufacturing method made it both expensive and cumbersome to change the design of the components. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n
