Details

3D-Printing gains increasing importance in plastics, metal und ceramics applications.
The aim of this challenge is to apply the 3D-Printing technology for the total Nokia mechanic spend to reduce the TCO across the entire Nokia supply chain. Hereby the tough product and customer requirements for geometrics, processing, temperature and long-term stability must be fulfilled.

Among other applications, Nokia sees the highest potential for 3D-Printing in the area of reducing process manufacturing time, tooling life cycle and time to market. Details about this challenge can be found in the Tab Resources.

In this context, all additional aspects of 3D-Printing can be evaluated as well and the scope of this ongoing challenge can be extended and drive the potential cost reductions and innovations even further.

We are inviting all players in this domain, to provide views and findings for 3D-Printing with the ultimate goal to define and create common benefits for the companies that will apply and to Nokia.
