Omaha Steel is excited to announce the new EXT 1070 Titan 3D printer from 3D Systems! This advanced machine combines pellet-fed extrusion and CNC technology, allowing us to create durable patterns and core boxes for the no-bake sand casting process directly from customer-supplied CAD files. With this investment, we are now able to bring the pattern-making process in-house, cutting down on lead times significantly. Historically, third-party lead times have been in the 6–8-week range, sometimes extending to 12 weeks plus shipping. Now, we can turn CAD files into steel castings in the same timeframe it used to take just to receive tooling from a third-party. This is a game-changer for us!
