The rear wheelhouse hemming tool (ivory) used on the production Chevrolet Equinox is used to join the inner and outer sheet metal fender panels. The tool is traditionally machined from aluminum and requires lead times of more than 10 weeks. GM recently 3D printed the tool on a Stratasys F900 printer using FDM ASA thermoplastic material rather than machine it from an aluminum billet. The new tool was produced in three weeks, reduced weight from 75 pounds to 33 pounds and reduced total cost by 74%.
