In this guide, we cover all the different types of polymer FDM 3D printing filament, from standard grades like PLA and ABS to advanced high-performance filaments like PEEK and fiber-reinforced materials.
Metal 3D printing offers significant design opportunities with its high geometrical freedom, but it requires careful design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) to address equipment and material constraints, a process supported by DfAM and 3D printing simulation tools in most major CAD software.
From entry-level FDM machines to industrial-grade metal printers, this guide demystifies the many types of 3D printers available to businesses and consumers.
As we approach the second half of the 2020s, many businesses wonder what manufacturing will look like in 2030. They see challenges ahead that include the effects of climate change, ongoing supply chain disruptions and the fluctuating relationship between humans and machines.
The italian company MDE shows how they are using metal 3D printing in their daily business.
In this chapter, we separate metal AM post-processing into four categories: debinding and sintering, CNC machining and milling, heat treatment, and quality assurance.
The most commonly used 3D printing filament, PLA is not known for its flexibility. We explore why that is and list some alternative 3D printing materials can be used when flexibility is needed.
Tips on how to design for Carbon’s additive manufacturing technology, and how Carbon stacks up against stereolithography and Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing.
