3D prototype has numerous advantages - time, finish, portablity, flexibility to change...

About the current trends in water Infrastructure

Of all the infrastructure types, water is the most fundamental to life and is irreplaceable. The widening water gap demands constant changes in the trends and the technology. As one of the world’s leading company in this sector, VA Tech Wabag offers sustainable solutions that can serve as the economic basis for a region and provide enhanced quality of life for the local population.



Very recently, the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu has inaugurated India‘s largest seawater RO desalination plant at Nemmeli executed by VA Tech Wabag on BOT basis for supplying drinking water to one million people in the southern suburbs of Chennai.



Advantages of 3D prototype

There are multiple advantages that the 3D prototype brings, especially to the engineering industry. 3D prototypes enable the complete understanding of the complexity of a project. For a project like the one we have in Nemmeli near Chennai, it was of tremendous help to engineers and technologists to understand the pipe conflict to rectify it in the design stage itself.

At VA Tech Wabag, the physical 3D print model helped us to explain the salient features of the project to key VIP visitors and display in exhibitions. Normally in exhibitions, the well-made models attract visitors as the details explained with the physical models gives lot of clarity to them.

Conventional Vs 3D Prints/Prototype

There are numerous differences. In case of conventional model, you don’t get to see anything till the actual model is finished in all aspects. On the other hand, in 3D print or prototype, you get to see the design at every stage of production and modify the design to suit the final requirement.

Time is another important advantage in 3D print. Using the latest software and hardware, you can print your model in no time. The impeccable quality finish you get is the added advantage.

Unlike the conventional models, which are difficult to shift from one place to another, 3D prints can be easily carried as it is printed as different modules and comes with customized packing.
