Additive Manufacturing for Production Tooling & Functional Parts
High-performance FDM, SLS, and Multi Jet Fusion using carbon fiber and engineering thermoplastics for jigs, fixtures, structural components, and low-to-mid volume production.
Fast response. Engineering evaluation included.
Built for Speed and Production
Stratiform Additive Manufacturing is a U.S.-based industrial additive manufacturing partner serving production teams that require strength, repeatability, and speed.
We manufacture functional polymer components designed to perform under load, temperature, and continuous operational use.
Our focus is structural integrity, dimensional stability, and real-world durability.
We support:
Rapid functional prototyping
Tooling validation
Bridge production
Small-batch manufacturing
Mid-volume production runs
Our additive manufacturing workflows help reduce machining load, shorten lead times, and increase production flexibility.
Capabilities
Stratiform delivers industrial additive manufacturing solutions using multiple advanced polymer technologies.
We select the appropriate process based on application requirements, performance demands, and production volume.
Our core additive manufacturing technologies include:
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) for high-strength, carbon fiber reinforced and engineering thermoplastic components
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) for durable nylon parts with balanced mechanical properties
Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) for consistent, scalable production with tight dimensional control
Each technology is deployed with a production-focused mindset — prioritizing material performance, repeatability, and manufacturability.
Additive Manufacturing Technologies
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)
High-performance and engineered thermoplastics for a wide range of applications such as:
jigs and fixtures,
end-of-arm tooling,
machine housings,
brackets,
guards,
production components
Controlled build environments and performance-driven process parameters ensure consistency across batches.
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering)
Produces detailed, functional components with uniform mechanical properties throughout the part.
Common applications include:
Functional housings and enclosures
Ducting and airflow components
Interlocking parts
Lightweight structural components
Short-run production batches
SLS is often selected for parts requiring balanced strength, geometric complexity, and scalable production efficiency.
Multi Jet Fusion (MJF)
Multi Jet Fusion delivers high dimensional accuracy and repeatable production quality for applications such as:
Production housings and covers
Clips, brackets, and mounting hardware
End-use consumer and industrial components
Small mechanical assemblies
Mid-volume replacement parts
MJF is typically chosen when repeatability, batch consistency, and production scalability are primary requirements.
