Bronymec, printing the future.
How Bronymec runs its additive manufacturing on Fabrex.
This is Part 1 of a three-part series on how Bronymec runs its operations on Fabrex: Part 1 covers additive manufacturing, Part 2 covers CNC machining, and Part 3 covers how Bronymec applies AI to CNC quoting.
Bronymec is a Basque manufacturer with more than 25 years of experience machining high-performance thermoplastics and composites. On that foundation it built BIM 3DLab, its additive manufacturing line based on HP Multi Jet Fusion — bringing industrial 3D printing to customers who need functional parts, and need them fast.
Bronymec has invested in that line as a discipline in its own right — with backing from the SPRI Group through the Basque Digital Innovation Hub (BDIH Konexio) programme — treating design, printing and post-processing as a single engineering process. In 2024 it was selected by HP as the first beta tester in Europe for PA12 FR, the halogen-free, flame-retardant material (UL94 V0, EN45545-2) built for regulated sectors such as railway, electrical and aerospace.
A growing additive line brings its own kind of complexity — and that's exactly what Fabrex was built for.

The challenge before Fabrex
An additive quote isn't priced like a machined one. It turns on build volume, print time and post- processing, and before Fabrex every incoming request was re-typed, re-checked and re-priced by hand. As volumes climbed — across additive and the company's long-standing machining line alike — that manual process became the thing slowing down the answer to a customer.
None of that is unusual on its own. The cost shows up later: in the time it takes to quote, and in how hard it is to see the whole business in one place.
Where Fabrex fits
Since November 2024, Bronymec has trusted Fabrex to run its quoting and order process. Every incoming request now moves through the same digital workflow, from first contact through to production.
Fabrex's quoting formulas do the heavy lifting on the additive side — build volume, print time and post-processing — on the HP Multi Jet Fusion line at Bronymec's BIM 3DLab.
In seconds, Bronymec's business developers and engineers can go from request to quote — and Bronymec's own clients can get an automated quote straight from the customer portal.
Once a quote is approved, it becomes an order that's tracked the same way from start to finish — same visibility, same handoffs, same record of what was promised and when.
That shows up clearly in the account itself:
796
QUOTES ON FABREX TO DATE
3.957
PARTS PROCESSED
Every one of those quotes and orders has been managed on Fabrex from first contact through to delivery — nothing leaves the platform.
That's not a pilot running quietly in the background. That's a team that made Fabrex part of how they work, every day.
To sum up
This is what we built Fabrex for: giving manufacturers one place to quote, track and deliver. Bronymec didn't have to bolt its additive line onto a separate system— it runs its full operation, additive and machining alike, in one place.
On Part 2, we'll explain how Bronymec is improving its CNC quoting workflow.
