Additive & 3D Printing - Articles, Stories & Interviews
When Clean is the Key to Precision
Micro molded parts are often invisible to the naked eye, measured in millimeters or fractions of millimeters, with features that can be smaller than a human hair. In this context, a single dust particle can disrupt form, fit, or function.
Comprehensive Guide to Composite Materials and Simulation
Composite simulation is crucial because it lets engineers explore designs, optimize performance, and spot failures digitally, saving tons of time and money compared to physical testing. It's challenging due to anisotropy, modeling delamination, and high computational cost.
BigRep ALTRA 280, the Ultimate High-Temperature Industrial 3D Printer
The ALTRA 280 was engineered to solve a challenge that’s persisted for years: reliably and affordably producing large, complex parts in both engineering-grade and high-performance polymers.
Rewriting the Rules of Scalable Manufacturing
The project, which fused AM-driven computational design with production-grade investment casting, successfully scaled an intricately engineered part from tens to thousands per day — all without compromising performance, cost-efficiency, or sustainability.
How Industrial 3D Printing is Propelling Small and Mid-Sized Manufacturers Forward
With lower barriers to entry, small and mid-sized manufacturers have more opportunities than ever to integrate industrial 3D printing into their operations while avoiding the hurdles that once held them back.
AUTOMATION IS UNLOCKING THE FUTURE OF AM SERVICES
In this article, I want to dive into the role automation plays in the approach to AM services, highlighting the benefits it delivers to customers, how it drives operational efficiency, and why it’s essential for the future of this industry.
