The Blueprint Blog

We have teamed up with Sebastian Baldauf at Baldiso where Blueprint Advanced Manufacturing GmbH is helping develop new and innovative high-performance bicycle components! Here is an example of a new spacing bracket custom designed and produced via additive manufacturing for their specialty frames and handlebar stems:

✅Internal cable channels for that tucked away look
✅ Geometrically formed to give a seamless design
✅ Durable scratch-resistant coating with customizable colors and effects
✅ Stack heights individually customizable and all as one piece
✅ Weight of 3d printed component 30% less than the milled aluminum standard.
‍
When utilizing additive manufacturing there is almost unlimited potential for incorporating new design and performance parts in the bike industry. We are extremely proud of the groundwork done on this collaboration and look forward to the next projects to come!

Wir haben uns mit Sebastian Baldauf von Baldiso zusammengetan, wo die Blueprint Advanced Manufacturing GmbH hilft, neue und innovative Hochleistungs-Fahrradkomponenten zu entwickeln! Hier ist ein Beispiel für eine neue Distanzhalterung, die speziell für ihre Spezialrahmen und Lenkervorbauten entwickelt und mittels additiver Fertigung hergestellt wurde:
‍
✅Interne Kabelkanäle für den versteckten Look
✅Geometrisch geformt für ein nahtloses Design
✅Langlebige, kratzfeste Beschichtung mit anpassbaren Farben und Effekten
✅Stapelhöhen individuell anpassbar und alles in einem Stück
✅Das Gewicht der 3D-gedruckten

Komponente ist 30% geringer als der gefräste Aluminiumstandard.
Durch den Einsatz der additiven Fertigung ergeben sich nahezu unbegrenzte Möglichkeiten für neue Design- und Leistungsteile in der Fahrradindustrie. Wir sind sehr stolz auf die Vorarbeit, die in dieser Zusammenarbeit geleistet wurde und freuen uns auf die nächsten Projekte, die kommen werden!

🌱 As part of our sustainable development goals, Blueprint is continuously validating new technologies and materials to keep ourselves and our customers up to date with the latest developments in additive manufacturing.

🔎 Following a comprehensive evaluation in accordance with our ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 protocol, we are pleased to announce Ultrasint PA11 (Nylon 11) from BASF as a new addition to our material catalog! PA11 is a bio-based high-performance material for demanding selective laser sintering applications, where the toughness of functional components is crucial.
If you want
The balanced mechanical properties make the material a sustainable alternative to the frequently used PA12 (nylon 12) for functional prototypes, high-performance component applications and individualized medical devices with skin contact.
If you want
✅ High-performance thermoplastic material properties
✅ Bio-based
✅ Excellent value for money
✅ Approved for skin contact

... we nearly forgot to post some picutres from our site expansion in Memmingerberg. 💣

Thanks to IX AirportPark - Blueprint got a new home. 😊

Modern office and state of the Art production capabilities. 🏭

He did it! 💪

Many years of experience in the medical technology industry are now confirmed.

Our co-founder Jens Harmeling is now a certified medical device consultant according to §83 MPDG.

How cool is that

We are especially proud to be in the top selection of startup candidates and thank Lucca and Radio Fantasy for the great interview!

"DIN EN ISO 13485"This certificate confirms that we also manufacture medical products for you in the quality you require.In addition to DIN ISO 9001, this is an elementary building block for us to have our industrial processes externally audited. AWESOME!!!!

We are soooo proud.... 😊

Challenges for small and medium size enterprises brought by the new EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR)

Have you heard? The EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) has now been in effect for almost a year. The impact for Medical device and diagnostics manufacturers are likely to bring huge challenges to implement the new requirements. Whether you are a start-up in the early phase, further advanced development enterprise, or even an established medical device company, do you understand the current realities of EU MDR compliance? The fact is, there are challenges that will impact just about every medical device company operating or planning to operate in the EU. However, small and medium sized enterprises with limited resources may find it difficult to adapt to changes and implement these requirements in a timely manner.

Are you aware of the impact for your company?

In our white paper, Blueprint together with our advisor board member Prof. Dr. Hanns-Peter Knaebel, express our concern over the burden of the certification process. We review the aspects the new legislative framework has on medical device development, particularly for smaller businesses, and offer some insight on how further technological innovation in the manufacturing sector can help in the wake of stricter regulations.

We are serious about our committment to high quality offerings for our customers and place implementing such internal systems to guarantee this service at the highest priority.
‍
Less than 3 months after founding Blueprint, we are proud to have already successfully achieved certification according to DIN EN ISO 9001 standards.
‍
We will continue to improve and grow our business and strive to offer only the best in service and quality.
