https://www.vitalstatistics.info/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/1.jpg1000667Not too many years ago, metal additive manufacturingwas something for the engineers to play with in their labs. It was good for making prototypes, but that was about it. The idea of additive manufacturing of metal parts was a dream, nothing more. But now, additive manufacturing, especially for metals, has gone mainstream; providing design and manufacturing possibilities never seen before. As designers continue to stretch the envelope, we can expect to see this increase even more. Additive manufacturing allows engineers and designers to explore design options that are impractical with subtractive manufacturing processes. Since material is added, rather than removed, […]
