Amazing Color Variety
Plastic can be found everywhere in our world, and injection molding is the universal, cost-effective production method used to form it into almost any shape: The raw material, plastic granulate, is heated until it is flowable and is then injected into a mold.
How the Additive Manufacturing Industry Emphasized End-Use Part Production at Rapid + TCT 2023
For the companies releasing new printers at RAPID, they shared a common theme: higher productivity. These printers were designed to increase end-user print productivity, whether it be higher speed, more power, or larger build volumes.
Unlocking the Value Potential of Additive Manufacturing
Still seen primarily as a prototyping technology, additive manufacturing is getting a boost from AI and machine learning software that can help with AM decision making.
Addressing Quality Issues in 3D Printing
As additive manufacturing (AM) / 3D printing becomes an embedded production technology, the scrutiny on every aspect of the AM process chain intensifies. The emphasis is in general terms on automation and the reduction in manual processing.
Business Case for Artificial Intelligence in the Plastic Injection Molding Business
A leading plastic injection molding factory was experiencing unusually high defect rates in a specialty plastic bottle designed for the healthcare industry. They were unable to identify or determine the root causes associated with these unusually high defect rates.
Automated Support Removal & Finishing for Metal AM - Robots vs CNC
This article will address the transition to automated support removal (and finishing) solutions and consider the advantages and disadvantages of using CNC systems versus the versatility and reliability of robots.
MICRO MOLDING - PLACE THE FOCUS ON OUTCOMES
You need to understand what micro molding can do in terms of stimulation of innovation, what it can deliver in terms of manufacturing efficiency, and what - above all - it can do to achieve increased functionality in parts that are often required to be smaller and smaller
Metal Additive Manufactured Parts for Racing Car
In metal powder bed fusion process the quality and of the powder raw material are of paramount importance, as the process relies on thin layers of metal powder being deposited and melted to produce metallic parts.
Weerg achieves cycle time reductions of over 50% with post processing technologies from AM Solutions
While order processing and manufacturing of the 3D components was managed digitally early-on, numerous post processing operations still had to be done manually, which required a lot of time and personnel and produced inconsistent results.
