Struggling with Plastic Under Extrusion in your 3D prints? 🛠️ Eddie's here to help with his Additive Advice! Common Causes: 🚫Clogged or worn-out plastic nozzle 💧 Wet plastic 🤦♂️Plastic tangled in the dry box ⚙️Extruder failure Troubleshooting Steps: 1. Check your dry box and ensure the material isn't tangled. 2. Run the Wet Plastic Purge Line utility: • If under-extruded, consider changing the nozzle. • If wet material, try a new spool after replacing the desiccant pack. 3. Run the Calibration Extrusion utility and weigh the extruded materials: • Good extrusion? Ensure proper bed maintenance. • Poor extrusion? Contact Support. Don't let common printing issues hold you back – book a call with Eddie today for expert maintenance tips and get the most out of your printer! https://lnkd.in/ggincUST

Today we see the first video of the special auxiliary devices: tutorial for the use of solvent washing machines. To achieve a high-quality printing on any type of support is essential that the working tools are clean. To clean clichés, inkcups and all the accessories that come into contact with the ink Comec Italy has developed the thinner washing machine Superwash. Entirely made of stainless steel, it works with a pneumatic system: a high pressure diaphragm pump makes the cleaning liquid enter in the device; it is then sprayed from the nozzles that are located at the sides, above and below the tub, so as to obtain a perfect cleaning thanks to its rotation. The machine is equipped with an active carbon filter with ventilation device that starts before the opening of the tank and a safety mechanism applied to the opening of the door. Furthermore, this compact apparatus is provided with pneumatic timer, pressure regulator, inner filter for the solvent.

Are you looking for specific transparent plastics?   Whether you’re planning to have your plastic transparent parts CNC machined, plastic injection-molded, or 3D printed, all of these fall into one of two broad categories—acrylic and polycarbonate.   We make a comparison of attributes between PMMA & PC below.   There's a fair amount of overlap between acrylic and polycarbonate and the two are often interchangeable. For demanding or very high-volume needs, though, it's a good idea to do your homework and check with one of our application engineers for advice! #acrylic #polyarbonate #TransparentPlastics #PMMA #PC #CNCmachined #InjectionMolded #3Dprinted

I was chatting to our friends, James Wall and Johannes Werner , from 3D Technology Ltd at the Manufacturing Solutions Expo in TUS, Limerick last week when I observed an intriguing print. The item was created using the Markforged X7 printer and Onyx material, a type of micro carbon fiber infused nylon known for its ability to produce precise components with exceptionally smooth surface texture. 👌 Onyx is renowned for its exceptional versatility and offers high strength, toughness, and chemical resistance when printed alone, and can be reinforced with Continuous Fibers to yield aluminum-strength parts. 💪 Are you curious about how to leverage this technology within your company? If you are interested in pursuing a one year, part time level 7 in additive manufacturing, YES only one year part time! 😎 Or our new introduction to additive manufacturing, 12 week 10 credit level 7 certificate. 🧑🎓 Click here to apply; https://amase.ie/ Reach out to me here or on WhatsApp 086 199 5047 if you would like more details about these courses. 📧 #AdditiveManufacturing #3DTechnology #CareerGrowth #SETUCarlow #SETUWaterford #InnovativeMaterials #Industry40 #ContinuousLearning #ProfessionalDevelopment

Build-up of ink and grease on printing machinery can cause alignment problems and high scrap rates. In addition, clogging of vent slots and material buildup on other components can result in reduced print speed. Often, traditional cleaning methods to remove this build-up, such as scraping and wiping with chemical solvents, are delayed as long as possible to avoid lengthy production downtime. Cold Jet’s process allows safe and effective online cleaning in a fraction of the time of traditional methods. Cleaning with Cold Jet Dry Ice Blasting Provides: ✔️No secondary waste ✔️Reduced cleaning time (up to 80%) ✔️Increase in Quality standards ✔️Clean in-place, no cool down, with minimal disassembly ✔️A non-abrasive clean that won’t damage substrates ✔️Non-conductive process ✔️Media entrapment elimination ✔️Increased operator safety ✔️An environmentally responsible clean ❄️𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐃𝐫𝐲 𝐈𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲?

RSP Inline Finishing - flexible and efficient all round! CITO’s inline finishing concepts create a clear competitive edge for printing companies. Multiple work steps – such as creasing, diecutting, kisscutting and perforating – can be completed in one go: without extra machine and personnel.  The additional benefit of RSP: Time and energy savings. Have you ever considered that with inline finishing in 3b format, you can save 900 to 1,000 kWh for a job with a print run of 250,000 sheets compared to offline production in a flatbed diecutter? Definitely a benefit, given the high cost of energy. Your advantages: - Considerable cost reductions - More efficient processes - Excellent print finishing quality RSP - designed for flexibility and efficiency, so that you can focus on what is important – the satisfaction of your customers.

The semi-automatic depowdering system from EASYMFG is designed to safely remove and collect loose powder from printed components for reuse in future print jobs. It has the capability to precisely remove metal powder from 'most geometries of any parts'. Additionally, the option for manual cleaning allows the team to address the trickiest geometries effectively. Traditionally, manual depowdering and cleaning have consumed a significant amount of work hours in the binder jetting process. By automating this step, the entire additive manufacturing (AM) process becomes more cost-efficient while ensuring consistent part quality. #binderjetting #metal3dprinting #metal3dprinter #3dprinting #3dprinter #additivemanufacturing
