Advantages of 3D Printing
Efficiency
Once a part has been designed using CAD software, it can be printed in a matter of hours, without a lengthy setup procedure.
Adaptability
Because 3D printed parts require no tooling, there is less risk involved when creating a part. If a fault is discovered after printing, it can be amended digitally without the need to replace expensive tooling.
Affordability
Since 3D printing uses only the required material and needs no tooling, it is one of the most affordable manufacturing processes for one-off parts or small batches.
What is 3D Printing?
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a revolutionary technology that creates three-dimensional objects from digital files. This process involves adding material layer by layer until the final object is formed. Unlike traditional manufacturing methods, which often involve subtracting material from a larger block, 3D printing allows for the creation of complex geometries and intricate details with minimal waste. It’s used in various industries, from prototyping and product development to medical implants and aerospace components. 3D printing offers significant advantages in customization, speed, and cost-effectiveness, making it an essential tool in modern manufacturing.
How to Select 3D Printing Process
If you need assistance in finding which 3D printing process is the right fit for you, you can set up a consultation and planning phase with our team of additive manufacturing experts.
All 3D CAD files you wish to have printed must be provided for the design and reviewed by the production team so they can be optimized and made to meet design requirements. These requirements will differ between FDM, SLA, SLS, and SLM 3D printing, so be sure to optimize your CAD model for the 3D printing process you wish to use.
