3D People, a UK-based 3D printing specialist, has launched PartsVault, a secure, cloud-based digital inventory platform that enables customers to manage, store, and produce parts on demand—wherever and whenever needed.
PartsVault gives engineers, buyers, and production teams a centralized, browser-based hub to manage 3D-printed parts across their product lifecycle, 3D People explains. Whether re-ordering repeat parts or producing emergency spares, PartsVault streamlines the process and delivers production-grade parts with speed and flexibility, the company claims.
“PartsVault will transform the way our customers interact with us,” says Felix Manley, co-founder of 3D People. “It eliminates guesswork and waste. You know what parts you need, and we make them—on demand, with precision and speed.”
With PartsVault, users can store the latest revision in each product to ensure they are not producing outdated parts, while saved production settings guarantee repeatable quality each time, the company says.
PartsVault isn’t intended as a solution only for existing clients. 3D People says it also represents opportunity for non-UK based companies to tap into the UK’s advanced 3D printing infrastructure—without needing local warehousing or logistics networks.
“Many manufacturers overseas are looking for ways to reduce reliance on fragile international supply chains,” says Sasha Bruml, co-founder. “With PartsVault, they can securely store part designs digitally and trigger local UK-based production whenever needed."
“The digital inventory revolution is here, and 3D People is at the forefront. With ISO 9001 quality, a market-leading online portal, and in-house finishing services, 3D People is perfectly positioned to deliver localised, responsive manufacturing for customers worldwide,” Manley says.
