TEI is an expert for highly complex castings in the engineering and manufacturing industry.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;204450&#8243;]TEI is one of the largest users of 3D sand printing in the US and runs a fully equipped aluminum foundry in Livonia, Michigan. The engineering expert decided to invest in the second <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voxeljet.com\/industrial-3d-printer\/serial-production\/vx4000\/\">VX4000 3D printer<\/a><\/strong> to further expand its already existing capacities for additive manufacturing and quickly and economically realize technically demanding projects for prototyping inquiries as well as production orders.

By eliminating the need for tooling and thanks to the large build volume of the 3D printer we can reduce delivery times drastically, which in turn greatly benefits our customers, whether it\u2019s the automotive or aerospace industry. In addition to that, we can produce parts that cannot be made conventionally, such as light-weight components and topology optimized parts.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row_content=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_height_percent=&#8221;50&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;0&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;544715&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;4&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; mobile_height=&#8221;300&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;110262&#8243;][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=&#8221;50&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589292226437{padding-right: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_width_use_pixel=&#8221;yes&#8221; position_horizontal=&#8221;right&#8221; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;5&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; column_width_pixel=&#8221;455&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589292348537{padding-right: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;195978&#8243;]With a build envelope of 4 x 2 x 1 meters, the VX4000 from voxeljet is one of the worlds largest 3D sand printers for metal casting applications and can be used for the production of single, very large sand molds or several smaller molds with production quality.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;135341&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-152736&#8243; type=&#8221;carousel&#8221; medias=&#8221;13352,13349&#8243; carousel_lg=&#8221;1&#8243; carousel_md=&#8221;1&#8243; carousel_sm=&#8221;1&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; media_items=&#8221;media|lightbox|original,icon,description&#8221; carousel_interval=&#8221;3000&#8243; carousel_navspeed=&#8221;400&#8243; carousel_dots=&#8221;yes&#8221; carousel_dots_mobile=&#8221;yes&#8221; carousel_dots_inside=&#8221;yes&#8221; carousel_dot_position=&#8221;left&#8221; carousel_dot_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; stage_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; single_text=&#8221;under&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_overlay_visible=&#8221;yes&#8221; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; single_title_dimension=&#8221;fontsize-866723&#8243; single_title_weight=&#8221;400&#8243; el_class=&#8221;custom-media-gallery&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;119058&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; bottom_divider=&#8221;step_3_4&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky=&#8221;yes&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;149128&#8243;]Michael Dougherty, Managing Director at voxeljet America Inc. adds: \u201cWhen it comes to castings for industries with very high standards, such as the aerospace or automotive industry, the VX4000 is the perfect tool to meet the requirements for dimensional stability and accuracy and still be able to produce the parts needed as fast as possible.
