Mass customization: production strategy aimed at satisfying customer needs while preserving the efficiency of mass production. At .Zero here's how we view mass customization, and how we are using nTop Platform helps us achieve it successfully.
AM lattices often have a down skin surface roughness different from the up skin one. The workflow shown below enables the design of a virtual “CAD with Designed Surface”. The latter has a surface roughness closer to the actual AM lattice, measured using X-ray Computed Tomography.
Stereolithography (SLA), Digital Light Processing (DLP), and Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) are 3 different types of 3D resin printing.
What is 3D printing? This article goes over the basics of 3D printing, otherwise known as additive manufacturing, covering its engineering principles and applications.
