If you’re new to the wonderful world of 3D printing, then may we be the first to offer you a warm welcome. You’re going to have lots of fun. The challenge that many newcomers to 3D printing face is distinguishing between the different processes and materials available. What’s the difference between types of 3D printing […]
Don’t be fooled by the name. While 3D printers do print tangible objects (and quite well), how they do the job doesn’t actually happen in 3D, but rather in regular old 2D. Working to change that is a group of former and current researchers from the Rowland Institute at Harvard. First, here’s how 3D printing […]
3D Printing has been a game-changer for many industries, including forging. According to 3DPrint.com: “Saptarshee Mitra has recently published a doctoral thesis, ‘Experimental and numerical characterization of functional properties of sand molds produced by additive manufacturing (3D printing by jet binding) in a fast foundry.’ Delving into hybrid casting and improved methods for creating metal […]
New to 3D Printing and Rapid Prototyping? Here are the differences. According to NeoMetrix Technologies: “3D printing and rapid prototyping are often confused as the same thing, however they are somewhat different. 3D printing is a method of additive manufacturing, whereas rapid prototyping is an application of this technology. 3D printing is a newer, more […]
