What Is VAT Polymerization in 3D Printing?
3D printing processes have evolved over the years. While some of them simply allow the deposited material to air-dry, others use faster and more advanced curing methods. VAT polymerization is one such 3D printing technology that uses an alternative curing … Read More
What Is the 3D Manufacturing Format?
3D printers rely on files to build objects using raw material. There are many different types of 3D printers, including fused filament fabrication (FFF), selective laser melting, selective laser sintering and electron beam melting. Regardless of the type, though, they … Read More
FFF 3D Printers: 5 Things You Need to Know
Fused filament fabrication (FFF) has become synonymous with 3D printing. There are FFF 3D printers that, like other 3D printers, build objects from raw material. Available in consumer- and commercial-grade models, they are the single most popular type of 3D … Read More
What Is Abrasive Jet Machining and How Does It Work?
Manufacturing companies use a variety of processes to remove unwanted material from workpieces. Some of these processes are relatively simple, such as cutting and drilling. Others, however, are more complex. Abrasive jet machining falls under the latter category. It involves … Read More
Additive Manufacturing vs Subtractive Manufacturing
Manufacturing processes can often be classified as either additive or subtractive. In both types of processes, companies build objects from materials. Materials can include plastics, thermoplastics, iron, steel, carbon and more. While both additive and subtractive manufacturing processes are used … Read More
5 Benefits of Electropolishing in Metalworking
Also known as electrochemical polishing, electropolishing is a metalworking process that’s used to remove excess or unwanted material from the surface of a metal workpiece. It involves bathing a metal workpiece in a tub of electrolytes that’s connected to a … Read More
What Is a ‘Road’ In 3D Printing?
3D printing is a complex manufacturing process that uses a machine, known as a 3D printer, to build three-dimensional objects from raw material. 3D printers take the raw material and deposit it onto a print bed, slowly building the object … Read More
