Replique, a secure 3D printing platform provider that makes OEMs part management more efficient and sustainable, will use Formnext to launch RSure. This innovative quality tracking module enables OEMs to track each of their 3D printed parts directly and ensure that final parts meet necessary quality requirements. RSure allows OEMs to set quality specifications, undertake a digital inspection and trace parts being produced via Replique before the part is sent to customers.
RSure will also enable OEMs to include further quality checks for service bureaus to undertake on 3D printed parts, including various certified measurements, functional tests and image uploads to the OEM’s digital library on Replique. Via the secure platform, OEMs can access and view this information remotely at any time.
Formnext visitors will be able to test Replique’s encrypted ordering process – which ensures parts are printed in the required amount and in the required quality – by ordering a free 3D-printed giveaway produced on-stand. This will also enable an up-close look at the company’s digital inventory, which enables part designs to be stored, managed, and ordered internally.
Max Siebert, co-founder and CEO of Replique, said, “as part of BASF, we know that industrial companies need standardized and repeatable production processes, especially when it comes to decentralized manufacturing. With our end-to-end solution, we can ensure traceability while providing repeatable quality and secure encryption of 3D printed parts.”
