Jabil Additive

Companies are facing extraordinary challenges with compressing product life-cycles, time-to-market pressures, personalization and customization of products. All resulting in decreasing production volumes and smaller batch sizes, which make traditional manufacturing technologies less effective. Additionally, companies are forced to search for real differentiation in their space with operations looking to move production closer to the customer. With local production comes pressures to compress or consolidate supply chains.

Additive Manufacturing (AM) can help alleviate these pressures and enable companies to thrive in this dynamic business climate. This includes time savings by accelerating new product introductions and time-to-production. There can also be significant cost savings by eliminating expensive tooling and fixtures needed for traditional manufacturing. Unlocking the design benefits of AM includes designing parts not previously possible, and part of BOM consolidation also enables substantial value not previously realized.
