Kennedy Valve's Streamlined Sand Casting

Summary

Kennedy Valve invested in a BigRep industrial 3D printer to modernize their aging sand casting workflow. They vastly improved upon the external supply strategy that had replaced their long-retired in-house pattern shop. Just by modernizing their factory floor with an industrial 3D printer, they reduced sand casting expenses by an astounding 22% while still retaining outsourcing for their post-processing needs.

Not only has Kennedy Valve monumentally improved their sand casting process, but also are leveraging their new tool to create on-demand prototypes and showcase models – bringing incredible added value to their product development, marketing, and sales departments.

With their BigRep additive manufacturing system, Kennedy Valve…

• Affordably and efficiently modernized an aging industrial workflow
• Reduced sand casting expenses by 22% with 3D printed patterns
• Streamlined the prototyping process by additively manufacturing in house
• Creates affordable product showpieces for tradeshows and potential investors
