Researchers have found that 3D printing technology can help improve the strength and ductility of objects. Recent research on 3D print technology in order to improve strength and ductility of objects has found that the technique can be used to…
UK-based Additive Manufacturing Technologies (AMT) is looking closely at an aspect of 3D printing that is critical but all too often swept under the rug in conversation: finishing. Optimization in design, speed and innovation in 3D printers, and strong, high-quality materials are…
3D-printed parts of 316L steel can be made stronger and more ductile than the original steel alloy. “Marine grade” stainless steel is valued for its ability to stave off corrosion and its high ductility (the ability to bend without breaking…
The question of strength in 3D printed materials is one which has held it back from exploding across manufacture. The initial indicates from NASA-based research were promising, and other manufacturers, notably GE and Airbus, have embarked down the path to…
