Production parts are parts directly manufacturered using "additive" processes like rapid prototyping systems, or "subtractive" technologies (machining processes) - such as the mills or engraving systems offered by CadBlu. Another related application is use of a pattern produced from 3D printers (see Solidscape and 3D Systems' printers below) to produce a casting pattern for investment casting to produce cast jewelry parts. See investment casting for more information.
Cadblu supports each of these technologies by integrating software, scanning systems, output systems and process knowledge to provide turn-key manufacturing systems. See Product Page for other part manufacturing technologies.
