3YOURMIND provides AM automation software to leading French 3D service

It’s no secret that additive manufacturing requires different processes than conventional manufacturing. For this reason, AM automation software can enable companies to unite every stage of production to optimize the AM workflow. Having identified this need, 3YOURMIND is providing AM order management software to bring accuracy, speed and transparency to companies dealing with additive manufacturing order processing and order management. You can think of their solution as bringing all communications onto one digital platform. In other words, 3YOURMIND brings the tools necessary to standardize and automate background processes so that a company can focus on production.

In fact, over a year ago, 3YOURMIND began speaking about a collaboration with INITIAL to increase the number of additive manufacturing orders INITIAL could process. INITIAL is a subsidiary of Prodways Group that supports customers in their industrial additive manufacturing projects. The company delivers prototyping to serial production solutions for their clients. Therefore, finding a solution to automate order processing in order to scale production and increase the overall utilization of their machines was key.

As a result, the two companies worked closely together to develop, test and customize an order management software solution. This solution had to be integrated seamlessly into the existing production ecosystem of INITIAL. This included adding processing steps to match current workflows, matching pricing formulas to their existing calculation methods and customizing the checkout procedure to account for their existing long-term purchasing relationships with their customers.
