SLS Dental Model Sets for Clinical Training

A dental education company needed repeatable model sets for hands-on courses. They used AIHFABS to source SLS nylon parts with stable lead times across multiple reorder cycles.

Challenge

• Repeat orders every month with identical fit requirements
• Need batch traceability for training inventory
• Mix of small and medium model sizes in one order

Solution

The customer saved supplier preferences in AIHFABS, compared updated pricing on each reorder, and standardized on a PA12 nylon option with documented shrink behavior.

Results

• Consistent part quality across 6 reorder cycles
• Procurement time cut by removing manual RFQ email threads
• Training inventory expanded without new mold investment
