Multi Bookbinding Introduces 3D Printing Technology in Its Maintenance Department

October 2025

Shawinigan, October 2025 — Staying true to its motto Fast, Reliable and Innovative, Multi Bookbinding continues to modernize its operations with the integration of a Bambu Lab H2S 3D printer in its maintenance department. This high-precision additive manufacturing system allows the company to design and reproduce essential mechanical parts in-house, reducing both downtime and maintenance costs.

Greater Autonomy and Flexibility

The new 3D printing capability gives Multi Bookbinding full independence in producing, adapting, and improving machine components across its production lines. By manufacturing custom parts directly on site, the company gains in responsiveness and cost control, while increasing its capacity to test and optimize mechanical designs.

Innovation Driven by Curiosity

This initiative stems from the curiosity and ingenuity of Gypsi Gagnon, Operations Foreman at Multi Bookbinding, whose vision of continuous improvement inspired the adoption of 3D printing technology. “3D printing lets us push the limits of traditional maintenance,” said Gypsi Gagnon. “We can now design, print, and test custom parts that enhance the performance of our equipment.”

Precision and Performance

The Bambu Lab H2S printer, equipped with a hardened steel hotend and compatible with advanced filaments like ABS Glass Fiber (ABS-GF), ensures high mechanical strength and dimensional accuracy ideal for industrial use. With this innovation, Multi Bookbinding reinforces its ability to innovate internally, merging human creativity with digital manufacturing to sustain high performance and reliability across all operations.
