You probably already know that Hawk Ridge Systems has an impressive portfolio of manufacturing hardware, software, and services to help you more easily build your prototypes, parts, and products.
What you might not know is that we also partner with manufacturing as a service (MaaS) providers, specifically, A3D Manufacturing.
MaaS is perfect when you:
- Aren’t ready to make a huge investment in 3D printing equipment and post-processing technologies
- Have low-volume manufacturing needs or just need a one-off part
- Have high-volume, highly custom requirements for your part
- Need to quickly get a custom, highly specialized prototype or part
- Want a build-as-you-go approach to manufacturing
If you want to make sure the part you go with is able to handle complex specs with tight tolerances, follow regulatory or compliance guidelines, and balance cost and part requirements, MaaS is THE choice.
MaaS: A Key Ingredient for Scale and Speed
In the past, many companies learned that they had to heavily invest in equipment, training, and software to build their own manufacturing hubs in-house because certain capabilities just weren’t available on an as-needed basis. Fast forward to this year and you’ll see that there are several companies offering manufacturing as a service with variances in services offered, scope of network, and throughput capabilities.
Pros of MaaS:
- You get parts quickly without equipment investment, maintenance, or training costs
- You get to build with top-of-the-line, industrial-grade manufacturing techniques with a library of 100+ material options
- Speeds up the design to manufacture process
- You get precise, high-quality components that adhere to exact specifications
- Scale production according to demand, ensuring flexibility
