Metal 3D Printing

How Universities Are using Industrial 3D Printing to Accelerate Engineering Research

Universities are under increasing pressure to deliver world-class research, secure external funding and strengthen collaboration with industry. Industrial additive manufacturing is becoming an important part of that strategy, enabling research teams to develop, test and refine ideas faster while reducing dependence on traditional manufacturing methods. Engineering research often depends on custom components, experimental fixtures, laboratory [...]

From Green Part to Finished Component: Understanding the FX10 Metal Printing Process

For many engineers, the biggest mystery surrounding metal additive manufacturing isn't how the part is printed - it's what happens afterwards.  Does it need machining?  How are the supports removed?  How much finishing is required?  With the Markforged FX10 Metal, the journey from printed component to production-ready part is surprisingly straightforward. Understanding each stage helps explain why bound metal filament [...]
