L ong delivery times are usually the order of the day when small quantities of prototypes or clamps with special product features are required in the production of mobile or stationary hydraulic systems.

Stauff is now able to supply clamps to fasten hydraulic and other lines produced in a matter of days in a 3D printing process. The process is very simple: the custo- mer uploads the CAD data of the component they re- quire onto the online platform set up by Stauff, receives a quotation for the requested quantity in seconds, varies the order if required, and then orders the component.
