Have you ever struggled to find the perfect part for your office setup? A specific mount that doesn’t exist, a cover for an odd-sized hole, or a replacement piece for a discontinued system can bring any upgrade or repair project to a halt. At A-V Services, we’ve solved this common problem by bringing manufacturing directly to you with our in-house 3D printing capabilities. This technology allows us to create instant, customized office solutions that are designed, printed, and delivered with unmatched speed and precision.
From custom mounts to specialized adapter plates, our 3D printing service transforms office frustrations into seamless solutions. We can craft the exact piece you need, when you need it, eliminating long waits and compatibility issues. This post will explore how our on-demand manufacturing works, the specific solutions we can create for your workspace, and the powerful benefits of leveraging this technology for your business.
From Idea to Object: Tailor-Made Office Hardware
Imagine needing a specific stand for your desk speakers to improve sound quality, but the manufacturer doesn’t make one. Or perhaps you’re retrofitting a conference room, and the new table boxes don’t fit the old cutouts. These are precisely the kinds of challenges our in-house 3D printing service is built to solve. We turn your unique requirements into tangible, high-quality products.
Customized Solutions for a Modern Workspace
Our capabilities extend to a wide range of practical applications that enhance the function and appearance of your office. By designing and printing in-house, we ensure every item is a perfect fit for your specific technology and furniture.
- Phone Cradles
We create custom-fit holders for smartphones, keeping them secure and accessible on desks or within
conference tables. - Poly Desk Speaker Stands
Elevate your desk speakers with stands designed specifically for models like the Polycom speakerphone. These
improve sound direction and help with clean cable management. - Speaker Mounts
Whether for walls or ceilings, we can produce mounts tailored to your exact speaker model, ensuring a secure
and professional installation. - Desk Pass-Through Holes (Cable Grommets)
Tidy up your cable situation with custom-sized grommets. We can match the finish and dimensions of your desk
for a clean, integrated look. - Table Mic Covers
For reconfigurable rooms, these simple covers are a game-changer. When microphones are removed from a
table, our snap-on covers hide the holes, maintaining a polished surface. - Table Cubby Adapter Plates
Upgrading your conference table technology? We design adapter plates and bezels to fit smaller, newer table
cubbies into older, larger cutouts, saving you from costly furniture replacement.
THE A-V SERVICES IN-HOUSE ADVANTAGE
While any company can outsource 3D printing, having this capability within our own facility provides distinct advantages for our clients. It’s about more than just making parts; it’s about delivering a better, faster, and more integrated service.
- Speed & Agility
The biggest benefit is speed. Traditional manufacturing involves long lead times, shipping delays, and potential
communication breakdowns. Our process is different. We can go from a design concept to a finished product in
a matter of hours or days, not weeks. This agility means your projects stay on schedule without waiting for a
small but critical part to arrive. - Unmatched Customization and Precision
Off-the-shelf solutions often require compromises. They might be the wrong size, the wrong color, or just not
quite right for your needs. Our 3D printing process allows for complete customization. We take precise
measurements of your existing equipment and environment to create a part that fits perfectly, every time. This
precision is especially important when integrating new technology with older systems. - Cost-Efficiency
Creating custom parts through traditional methods can be expensive, especially for a single or small batch of
items. 3D printing eliminates the need for costly molds and retooling. By producing items on-demand, we
reduce material waste and manufacturing costs, passing those savings on to you. You only pay for what you
need, making it a highly economical solution for one-of-a-kind problems. - Breathing New Life into Existing Systems
Technology moves fast, and sometimes a key component is no longer manufactured. This can force an entire
system to be replaced, even if it’s still functional. Our 3D printing service offers a solution.- Creating Materials That Are No Longer Available: We can reverse-engineer and print replacement
parts for legacy equipment. A broken bracket or a lost cover no longer means the end of the line for
your trusted devices. - Integrating with Your Current Technology: We can create “nuance brackets” and other adaptive
components that bridge the gap between old and new systems. This allows you to upgrade your
technology incrementally without a complete overhaul.

THE BROADER ADVANTAGES OF 3D PRINTING IN TECHNOLOGY
The rise of 3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is revolutionizing how we think about creating physical objects. Its impact extends far beyond just our in-house services, signaling a major shift in design, innovation, and sustainability.
- Fostering Innovation and Rapid Prototyping
The rise of 3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is revolutionizing how we think about creating physical
objects. Its impact extends far beyond just our in-house services, signaling a major shift in design, innovation,
and sustainability. - Fostering Innovation and Rapid Prototyping
3D printing allows designers and engineers to quickly test and refine ideas. A new concept for a mount or a
cradle can be designed, printed, and tested in a single day. This rapid prototyping cycle accelerates innovation,
allowing for continuous improvement and creative problem-solving without the high stakes of traditional
manufacturing. - A More Sustainable Approach
Additive manufacturing is an inherently less wasteful process. Unlike subtractive methods, where a block of
material is cut down to size, 3D printing builds objects layer by layer, using only the material needed. This
significantly reduces waste. Furthermore, by creating replacement parts, we help extend the life of existing
equipment, keeping functional electronics out of landfills. - Empowering On-Demand Manufacturing
The ability to print what you need, when you need it, is transforming supply chains. On-demand production
reduces the need for large inventories and long-distance shipping. For our clients, it means getting a custom
solution for a unique problem without the logistical headaches of sourcing it from a distant manufacturer.
