WEERG: 3D Printing and CNC Machining Revolution

Learn how WEERG, a prominent 3D printing and CNC machining service provider, has transformed its business with advanced 3D printing technology.

WEERG: From CNC Machining to 3D Printing

Located near Venice, Italy, WEERG was established in November 2015. Founded by Matteo Rigamonti, the company has become a leader in printing services and one of the most popular online quote estimators.

WEERG started with CNC machining services. Traditionally, getting CNC parts and quotes was an exhaustive process. Matteo Rigamonti founded WEERG to simplify these processes, offering easy online quotations through their website and fast delivery of parts within three days. Today, WEERG receives up to 20,000 quotes a day, making their system a benchmark for many companies.

When WEERG launched in 2016, "volume production" in the 3D printing industry wasn't fully ready. Initially, the company focused mainly on CNC machines. However, recognizing the potential of 3D printing, WEERG invested in a fleet of HP Jet Fusion 5210 printers. This allowed them to offer materials like PA11, PA12, PP, and PA12 with GlassBeads. Currently, they print an average of 24,000 to 25,000 pieces a day.

As demand grew, industrial companies increasingly requested polymer parts with properties such as flame retardancy, high chemical resistance, high-temperature resistance, and high electrical insulation. To meet these needs, WEERG invested in high-temperature 3D printers capable of printing high-performance materials like PEEK, PEEK-CF, and PEEK-GF.

Choosing INTAMSIS

After thorough research and benchmarking, WEERG chose INTAMSYS as their supplier. The INTAMSYS FUNMAT PRO 410 met all their requirements with features like a heated chamber, dual heated nozzles, and a heated filament chamber.

INTAMSYS offered one single solution that got it all:

  • A robust printer with a sleek aesthetic finish, heated chamber, dual heated nozzles, and heated filament chamber.
  • Free and user-friendly software with incorporated printing settings (Click and Print experience) for a wide range of materials (from PA12-CF to PEEK).
  • Reliable support, and most importantly for WEERG, honesty and a true partnership.
WEERG also appreciated the user-friendly software with incorporated printing settings and the reliable support from INTAMSYS.

They went for INTAMSYS and received their FUNMAT PRO 610HT in June 2021. Since the purchase of the printer, they have printed many prototypes, some end-use parts, and from time to time jigs/fixtures and tooling parts.

As the printer has a high chamber temperature (up to 300°C), it also means that all temperatures in between are covered too. 4D Concepts has printed out parts of many plastic types; from PLA, ABS, PC, to PAEK, PEEK, PEI 9085/1010.

We accompany our customers in a professional manner throughout the entire project - from planning and design to the prototype or the production of a complete series. Combining our 3D printing processes with conventional component processing, post-processing and surface refinement of the prototypes, small series or even a trade fair exhibit is our daily business. Since the company was founded in 1995, our experienced team in Gross-Gerau has made a name for itself well beyond the borders of the Rhine-Main area. We are one of the leading service providers for everything to do with 3D printing and have more than satisfied customers from a wide variety of industries - from the automotive and consumer goods industries to mechanical engineering and companies from the medical technology sector.

Alex Di Maglie
Managing Director,  4D Concepts

Our clients are really curious about high-performance materials and about how they can use them in their company. The innovation of AM is stimulating Product Designers that work with us to develop in a new way driving innovation forward.

Fabio Trotti
3D R&D Manager, WEERG

We were looking for printers that can print high-performance materials and run 24/7 on our production floor. INTAMSYS offered a robust printer, a nice aesthetic finish, and a true partnership.

Discover WEERG’s Journey with INTAMSYS’ Printers

The application of high-end filaments made of high-performance plastics such as PEI is not new to the field of 3D Printing. However, it requires both, a wide range of skills (materials and production) and the appropriate machinery.

Thanks to its large-format 3D printer from INTAMSYS, 4D Concepts can now process a wide range of high-end plastics with excellent thermal and mechanical properties for prototyping. Parts are out of PEI 9085.

PEEK Part

 Prototype gear for testing and validation – Quick turnarounds are key in the prototyping phase to allow for easy iteration before finalizing the geometry.

Valve Wheels

Carter/sump for a small high-performance engine – Lighter than its metal machined counterpart, can fulfill its duties thanks to the high mechanical and thermal properties of PEEK.

PA12-CF Part

GoPro helmet mounting bracket. Very light weight, rigid and high performance to reduce fatigue and unnecessary weight on the rider.

The INTAMSYS FUNMAT PRO 410 has been a performant and reliable tool since day one. It allows us to process high-performance polymers that enable our customers to innovate with them in highly loaded, thermally challenging, and metal replacement applications. It gives us the confidence that is needed to print 24/7 unattended with long print jobs of 100+ hours. It redefines what can be achieved with FDM technology.
