3D printing technology is increasingly used in modern engineering and manufacturing, and its potential is particularly significant in the modular design and manufacturing of piping systems.

With 3D printing, piping systems can be broken down into multiple modules, each of which is independently designed, printed, and ultimately assembled into a complete piping system.

Material used: ABS/ASA

Lead time: 4 days

Sample use: Modular piping system components

Each individual part in this assembly has internal channels, demonstrating the value of using soluble support materials, as internal non-soluble materials are difficult or essentially impossible to remove. The parts also feature a locking mechanism that must be precise and accurate during each print run in order for the parts to attach to each other.

At the heart of modular design in real-world engineering projects is the breaking down of a complex piping system into a number of standardized modules. Each module can be designed independently to meet specific functional requirements. Through 3D printing technology, these modules can be precisely manufactured to ensure that the size and shape of each part meets the design requirements, and this method not only improves design flexibility, but also greatly shortens the manufacturing cycle and reduces costs.

Through 3D printing technology, the modular design of piping systems not only enhances the flexibility and efficiency of engineering design, but also opens up new possibilities for future innovative applications.
