For Print Service Bureaus

Turn changing customer demand into predictable production.

Handle mixed customer orders, repeat batches and changing part geometries with an industrial SLS workflow built around flexible capacity, practical powder handling and scalable production.

Service production reality

Customer work rarely arrives as one part, one order or one geometry.

The production system has to absorb changing requirements while keeping machines, people and powder moving efficiently.

01 / DEMAND

Mixed Customer Orders

Different quantities, geometries and delivery dates must be planned into practical production builds.

02 / UTILIZATION

Unused Build Capacity

Running each small job separately increases idle space, cycle count and cost per finished part.

03 / WORKFLOW

Operational Bottlenecks

Cooling, depowdering, screening and refilling can restrict output even when printer capacity is available.

04 / GROWTH

Difficult Expansion

Adding machines without a coordinated powder workflow can multiply labor and handling requirements.

Seven customer orders nested into one planned SLS build
Mixed-order production

Consolidate more customer work into each planned build.

MEGA I gives service bureaus the build space and process flexibility to group compatible orders instead of assigning every small job to a separate machine cycle.

  • Plan different part sizes and geometries together
  • Use more of the available build volume
  • Reduce unnecessary standalone production cycles
  • Protect sensitive parts through practical process planning

Repeat batch production

Move from one-off jobs to repeat production.

Dense nesting converts build volume into sellable output. Repeat parts can be planned as a controlled production job instead of a sequence of small, disconnected cycles.

Complete production workflow

Printer capacity only matters when the workflow can keep up.

Coordinate preparation, printing, cooling, depowdering and powder recovery as one production flow.

Zorix depowdering and powder management system
01

Prepare customer files

Check geometry, orientation and production requirements before nesting begins.

02

Plan mixed and repeat builds

Use Inno BP to arrange compatible jobs and make practical use of chamber volume.

03

Print with MEGA I

Run large mixed builds and repeat batches on a production-focused SLS platform.

04

Cool and depowder

Move the build into a controlled post-processing path while preparing the printer for the next job.

05

Recover and prepare powder

Screen, store and blend recovered powder through a coordinated powder-management workflow.

06

Finish and deliver

Complete the required finishing steps, inspection and customer delivery.

Operator working with the Zorix SLS production system
Production economics

Add useful capacity without adding the same level of operational overhead.

A production platform should improve the amount of customer work your team can complete, while keeping daily operation practical.

Lower Entry Threshold

Add industrial SLS capacity with a production system designed around practical expansion.

Better Labor Utilization

Reduce repetitive powder-handling work and keep skilled operators focused on production quality.

Scalable Infrastructure

Connect printing and powder management around a workflow that can support more than one machine.

Built for service bureaus

Built around the way service production actually works.

01 / RANGE

More Job Types

Move between small functional parts, complex geometries, large components and repeat production.

02 / PLANNING

Mixed-Build Flexibility

Consolidate compatible customer work and respond to changing order combinations.

03 / OUTPUT

Repeat Production Capacity

Use chamber volume and nesting density to produce larger quantities per planned cycle.

04 / OPERATION

Practical Powder Workflow

Connect depowdering, recovery, blending and feeding around real production requirements.

Production support

More than equipment delivery.

Evaluate the machine, process and powder workflow around the work your service bureau needs to complete.

01

Part and Process Evaluation

Review representative files, material requirements and production risks.

02

Build Planning Support

Assess mixed-order strategy, nesting priorities and repeat production goals.

03

Production Workflow Review

Plan the path from file preparation and printing to depowdering and recovery.

04

Technical and Channel Support

Coordinate commissioning, training and continued production assistance.
