1. Executive Summary: Verified Before-and-After Transformation
Verified Metric: Zero mold storage overhead · 6-month auto-purge for one-off RFQ CAD (immediate purge on NDA request) paired with locked P/N+Rev recipes for repeat bridge programs (GLUCK official digital inventory and repeat production guides (/notes/en/digital-inventory-record/, /notes/en/guide-repeat-order-versions/)).
Strictly separates 6-month auto-purged one-off RFQ files from customer-authorized P/N+Rev digital inventory records for repeat bridge lots.
When evaluating High-Mix Low-Volume (HMLV) Digital Inventory Before-and-After Case, what verified physical improvements did GLUCK's Paju 48-machine SLA smart factory achieve compared to traditional fabrication?
2. Legacy Process Bottleneck (Before) vs. Paju 48-Machine SLA Architecture (After)
Legacy Bottleneck (Before): Storing aging molds or holding excess safety stock due to high injection-molding MOQs for intermittent equipment covers and jigs.
GLUCK Single-Site SLA Solution (After): Locking approved build orientation, support recipes, 2K PU Pantone codes, and Zone B masking specs under P/N + Revision on the isolated Paju network for on-demand repeat lots.

Frequently Asked Engineering Questions
Is the 'Zero mold storage overhead · 6-month auto-purge for one-off RFQ CAD (immediate purge on NDA request) paired with locked P/N+Rev recipes for repeat bridge programs' outcome guaranteed universally across all geometries?
No. Strictly separates 6-month auto-purged one-off RFQ files from customer-authorized P/N+Rev digital inventory records for repeat bridge lots. Every new 3D STEP drawing undergoes a 1-on-1 engineer review to confirm wall thickness, resin selection (G20-BR, G40-JG, White, Clear), and tolerance gates.
How does GLUCK verify dimensional accuracy before releasing a bridge lot?
First-article (1-5 unit) physical assembly fit-checks are combined with Creaform optical 3D laser scan colormap inspection and Zone B (0 um paint) datum masking.
How are 3D CAD files governed after prototype or bridge delivery?
One-off RFQ CAD files are retained on the isolated Paju network for 6 months and then automatically purged (with immediate deletion available upon NDA request), while repeat bridge items are locked under P/N + Revision.
Illustrative Engineering Review Scenario & Pre-Production Check Protocol
