Due to its niche market, the expected annual volume was 500-1000 per year. This low production volume meant injection moulding was impractical, with tooling expected to cost approx. $35,000
3D Printing enabled a niche product to enter market with low upfront costs and fast lead times, whilst maintaining strength and durability
