Electroforming and 3D Printing are both additive manufacturing processes. Whereas Electroforming builds up precision metal parts atom by atom, 3D Printing works by applying materials in droplets through a small diameter nozzle and “print” layer by layer to build up the product.
When it comes to desktop 3D printing, buyers have two main options: resin printers that use photopolymerization technology, or filament printers that extrude molten thermoplastic. Both have their strengths and weaknesses.
In this episode, we talk about how embedding information about products can change consumer insight regarding their purchases and the best way to make high quality, affordable, and flexible OLED screens
