How to Choose Right Metalforming Processes?--3D printing

April 11, 2022

3D printing creates a solid product from a digital model using little more than powdered materials or wire filament. Most products fashioned by 3D printing are more durable, precise, and lightweight, and they’re faster to build than those created by traditional methods.

The process begins by creating a digital blueprint of the object you want to manufacture. You load the printer with the material, for example, plastic filament, wire, or a metal powder. The printer then uses an electron beam or a laser, called selective laser sintering (SLS) or power bed fusion, to heat and fuse the material for production.

As the printer scans the digital model, its print head reproduces the blueprint layer by layer until the object is complete. As the printer creates each layer of material, it cools it into a solid form, and each successive layer adheres to the previous one. 3D printing can make almost any shape through this process with incredible precision.

3D printing focuses on the object’s design and functionality rather than its complexity. Traditional methods like casting and milling can’t equal 3D printing technology’s ability to reproduce complex geometries. 3D printing also allows for almost unlimited design freedom, where a product’s complexity has a limited impact on production cost.

According to above introduction, we know that each process has its own unique advantages, the final choice of which process should be confirmed from the final application of the product, the required performance, order quantity, the accuracy requirements and the cost budget.
