Find the Right Technology for Your Application
Which additive manufacturing technology suits your component? The answer depends on material, geometry, part size, batch volume, quality standards, and economic requirements. The Welding3D Technology Finder supports structured evaluation of your criteria.
What is the primary goal of your project?
The use case is the first KO criterion – it fundamentally determines which process classes are eligible.
Which material family is required?
Hard KO factor – some processes are physically incompatible with certain material families.
What is the maximum part dimension (longest edge)?
Hard KO factor – determines directly which machine classes are physically suitable.
What is the annual production volume?
Critical for economic viability – directly affects setup and scaling costs.
What is the primary decision factor?
Your most important criterion is weighted 1.5× in the scoring algorithm.
Important Note
The Welding3D.de Decision Engine provides a structured initial technology assessment. Based on this, we support you in selecting suitable manufacturing systems and broker matching machine solutions directly via our platform.
