3D PRINTING 3D printing or additive manufacturing is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model.[1][2] It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control,[3] with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer. A three-dimensional printer Timelapse of a three-dimensional printer in action In the 1980s, 3D printing techniques were considered suitable only for the production of functional or aesthetic prototypes, and a more appropriate term for it at the time was rapid prototyping.[4] As of 2019, the precision, repeatability, and material range of 3D printing have increased to the point that some 3D printing processes are considered viable as an industrial-production technology, whereby the term additive manufacturing can be used synonymously with 3D printing.[5] One of the key advantages of 3D printing[6] is the ability to produce very complex shapes or geometries that would be otherwise infeasible to construct by hand, including hollow parts or parts with internal truss structures to reduce weight while creating less material waste. Fused deposition modeling (FDM), which uses a continuous filament of a thermoplastic material, is the most common 3D printing process in use as of 2020. #snsdesignthinkers #snsinstitutions #snsce

𝐌𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝟑𝐃 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 – 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 – https://lnkd.in/d9PiU3MH Metal 3D printing is a process of creating three-dimensional metal parts from a digital file. The process starts with creating a 3D model of the part to be printed. This model is then sliced into thin layers and each layer is printed one at a time until the part is complete. Metal 3D printing is typically done using an additive process, meaning that the part is built up layer by layer from nothing. However, there are also subtractive metal 3D printing processes that start with a block of metal and remove material to create the desired shape. 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 There are several key trends in Metal 3D Printing technology. One of the most significant is the trend toward using metal 3D printing for mass production. This is driven by the fact that metal 3D printing can produce parts with very high accuracy and repeatability, making it ideal for mass production. Additionally, metal 3D printing is becoming increasingly more affordable, making it a viable option for more companies. Another key trend is the move toward using more exotic metals for 3D printing. This is driven by the fact that metal 3D printing can produce parts with very complex shapes and geometries that would be difficult or impossible to produce using traditional manufacturing methods. Additionally, the use of exotic metals can allow for the creation of parts with unique physical and chemical properties. Finally, there is a trend toward using metal 3D printing for more customized and personalized products. This is made possible by the fact that metal 3D printing can produce parts with very precise dimensions and tolerances. Additionally, metal 3D printing can be used to create parts with unique finishes and surface textures. #Metal3DPrinting #AdditiveManufacturing #MetalAdditive #MetalPrinting #3DPrintedMetal #MetalFabrication #DMLS #MetalAM #MetallicPrinting #MetalPrototype

⚙️3D printing technology has found applications in various industries, and the manufacturing of impellers is no exception. 🌀3D printing technologies support a wide range of materials, including various plastics, metals, and composite materials. Engineers can choose materials that suit the specific requirements of the impeller, such as corrosion resistance, strength, or flexibility. 📝Despite these advantages, it's important to note that the choice of manufacturing method depends on the specific application, material requirements, and production volume. While 3D printing offers unique benefits, traditional manufacturing methods like casting, machining, and injection molding may still be preferred in certain situations, especially for large-scale production or when specific material properties are essential. The selection is often a balance between the advantages of 3D printing and the specific needs of the impeller and its intended use. 📢Use 3D printing simulation software #vampire to create your designs.

Let's talk additive manufacturing ⚙️ 👉 What is it? In short, it's 3D printing. A process in which you create three dimensional objects by depositing materials in layers. 👉 What are the benefits? Filaments made of biodegradable plastic or natural resources Bespoke parts to fit individual customer requirements Faster lead times for both Rotech and customers Components made to order without waste No unnecessary shipping from suppliers Reduction in costly stock holding 👉 How does Rotech utilize 3D printers? Being Made in Britain - official, Rotech are massive ambassadors for in-house additive manufacturing. In the factory there is a fleet of printers, creating vital components for the feeders and printer bracketing. Our technical team are especially skilled in designing these parts on CAD. And what's more Jose Miguel Matute Mari even does 3D printing in his spare time, he is in the process of creating a black panther suit, with a fully functioning mechatronic mask! (We are sure he will post a picture in the comments if we ask him nicely enough.) #MadeInBritain #UKManufacturing #UKEngineering #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting

ARTICLE ABOUT '' 3D Printing '' 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a revolutionary technology that involves creating three-dimensional objects layer by layer from digital models. This process offers versatility, enabling the production of a wide range of items across various industries. In 3D printing, a computer-aided design (CAD) model serves as the blueprint for the object to be printed. The printer interprets the design and deposits material layer by layer until the physical object is formed. This technique allows for intricate and customized shapes that might be challenging or impossible to achieve through traditional manufacturing methods. Industries such as healthcare, aerospace, automotive, and consumer goods have embraced 3D printing for rapid prototyping, creating complex components, and even manufacturing end-use products. Its ability to reduce waste and enable on-demand production adds to its sustainability appeal. Materials used in 3D printing vary, including plastics, metals, ceramics, and more recently, bio-compatible materials. The continual advancements in 3D printing technology contribute to increased speed, precision, and the ability to work with an expanding array of materials. Despite its many advantages, challenges such as cost, scalability, and material limitations still exist. However, ongoing research and development efforts aim to address these issues, making 3D printing an increasingly integral part of modern manufacturing and design processes. #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking #snsct
