3D printing is helping bring critical public safety and security communications to the mass transit industry. At Boyce Technologies, the company makes communications equipment mainly for New York City Transit. Examples might include intercoms, public address systems or radio amplifiers—anything that is used for life safety security focused mainly on the MTA for New York City.

One of its projects is a digital kiosk, which houses sensitive antennae equipment. Within this system, the company is using 3D printed parts from BigRep. The BigRep STUDIO helps them speed up production with testing, prototyping and even packing!
