Replique Adds Quality Tracking Module to 3D Printing Platform
Formnext 2022: Rsure quality control module for Replique’s secure, integrated platform for on-demand aftermarket parts offers OEMs a digital quality control over the whole manufacturing process of each individual part, providing a digital twin of all produced parts.
Replique has developed the RSure quality tracking module which enables OEMs to track each of their 3D printed parts directly and ensure that final parts meet necessary quality requirements. It’s part of a secure 3D printing platform the company has developed that makes OEMs’ part management more efficient and sustainable.
The module is said to offer OEMs a digital quality control over the whole manufacturing process of each individual part, providing a digital twin of all produced parts. The integrated platform combines the secure storage of designs with the on-demand and decentralized manufacturing and distribution of parts.
It is said RSure enables 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 upload to the OEM’s digital library on Replique. Via the secure platform, OEMs can access and view this information remotely at any time.
Replique’s encrypted ordering process is said to ensure parts are printed in the required amount and in the required quality. The company’s digital inventory enables part designs to be stored, managed and ordered internally. Replique’s solution is said to work for both B2B and B2C companies.
“As part of BASF, we know that industrial companies need standardized and repeatable production processes, especially when it comes to decentralized manufacturing,” says Max Siebert, Replique co-founder and CEO. “With our end-to-end solution, we can ensure traceability, while providing repeatable quality and secure encryption of 3D printed parts.”
