The sports equipment supplier Salomon was founded in 1947 in the French Alps. The company designs and manufactures products for various sports - including trail running, hiking, climbing, adventure racing, skiing and snowboarding - in more than 40 countries on 5 continents. Salomon is proud of its commitment to further development in mountain sports, its product innovations, its quality and excellent workmanship.

The central tool in the design process at Salomon is a Dimension 1200 3D printer with FDM technology. The CAD engineer Emilien Arbez explains that the 3D printer is used with increasing success in prototyping shoe soles and has made the process faster and more economical. "Thanks to our own 3D printing system here in the company, we were able to revolutionize our work processes and generally improve control and flexibility," he says. For example, Salomon 3D prints sole prototypes for hiking and trail running shoes in ABSplus and thus easily checks volume and shape. "High precision is particularly important for the development and verification of the requirements for the tread and grip."
