Custom Tooling: Precision and Lead Time Improvements Through Additive Manufacturing

Haeger now offers a new tooling solution designed to reduce lead times, improve part availability, and support greater flexibility in fastener insertion applications. By leveraging Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) additive manufacturing technology, we are able to deliver durable, high-precision custom and replacement tooling in significantly shorter timeframes.

This development directly addresses common concerns around tool availability, unplanned downtime, and high tooling costs – particularly in low- to mid-volume production environments.

Key Benefits of Haeger MJF Tooling

Reduced Lead Times

Custom and made-to-order toolsets now ship in approximately 5 weeks
Spare and replacement tooling can be produced and delivered in as little as 72 hours, helping to reduce production interruptions.

Reliable Performance

Constructed from PA12 nylon, an industrial-grade thermoplastic known for strength and wear resistance.
Proven to deliver over 900,000 insertion cycles in typical use without functional degradation.
Excellent dimensional accuracy of ±0.003 in, ensuring reliable fit and function.

Flexible and Application-Specific Design

Allows for faster changeovers, tooling customization, and support for short-run production without long waits.
Reduced part complexity and simplified assembly help lower maintenance needs and risk of operator error.

Designed for Speed and Simplicity
MJF tooling is ideal for manufacturers needing fast changeovers, short lead times, or contingency spares – without compromising on strength or accuracy.
