3D Printing vs. Injection Molding, are you wondering which process is the more cost-effective option for your manufacturing needs? In this video, the experts at Slant 3D conduct a direct comparison of the exact same part, from conception to pricing, to help you make an informed decision.

Using a simple cube, we explain the design considerations and optimizations required for each process. We then requested quotes from an injection molder and our own Slant 3D website. After, we compared the price difference for a production run of 10,000 parts, using each process.

If you're still unsure which manufacturing process to choose, watch the full video to learn more about the differences between injection molding and 3D printing.

About Slant 3D

🏭 High-Volume 3D Printing: Scalability Meets Flexibility
Slant 3D's Large-Scale 3D Print Farms utilize 1000's of FDM 3D printers working 24/7 to offer limitless scalability and unparalleled flexibility. Whether it's 100 or 100,000 parts, our system can handle it reliably, while still allowing for real-time design updates, ensuring products evolve with the times. This adaptability is key in today's fast-paced world.

🌿 Sustainable Manufacturing: Eco-Friendly Efficiency
Embrace a system that drastically reduces carbon emissions by eliminating carbon-intensive steps in the supply chain, such as global shipping and warehousing. Our approach minimizes this footprint, offering a more sustainable manufacturing option.

⚙️ Digital Warehouses: Parts On-Demand
Think of print farms as a "Digital Warehouse", meaning we can store your parts digitally on a server rather than physically on a shelf. parts are available on-demand, reducing the need for extensive physical inventory.
