Not all cables are made of copper or aluminum. When used to transmit data, cables are often made of optical fibers. Known as fiber optic cable, it’s used extensively in telecommunications applications. Even if you’re unfamiliar with fiber optic cable, … Read More

Bridges are often used in 3D printing applications. Like traditional bridges, that are used to connect two areas on a 3D printed object. Depending on the type of object being built, it may have multiple raises areas. Manufacturing companies use … Read More

Planing and shaping are two common processes performed in the manufacturing industry. Manufacturing companies rely on these processes to manipulate the size and shape of raw materials, thereby leading to the production of finished goods. Planing and shaping aren’t the … Read More

3D printing offers a fast and efficient way for manufacturing companies to build objects. Whether it’s a prototype or a fully finished product, a 3D printer can build it using the instructions contained in a computer-aided design (CAD) file. Injury … Read More

During operation, 3D printers often release heated material in a liquid or semi-solid state. Doing so allows the 3D printer to release an even and consistent amount of material, thereby reducing the risk of defects like ghosting. Finished objects, however, … Read More

3D printing has become increasingly popular in the manufacturing industry. Manufacturing companies of all shapes and sizes now use it to build prototypes as well as finished products. Although there are a variety of 3D printing processes, however, most of … Read More

Have you heard of the 3D printing phenomenon known as “ringing.” If so, you might be wondering what it is exactly. 3D printers, of course, build objects by depositing material onto a print bed. They generally add the material layer … Read More
