Rapid prototyping stamples in Automotive
1、Rapid prototyping stamples in Automotive The original power of all models before new energy vehicles comes from steam power, which is the dynamics of the car’s stroke, or from the decomposition of molecules in petroleum into gasoline, which is used as the driving fuel for the car. As the earth’s oil is slowly entering a […]
What is 3D printing?
What is 3D printing 3D printing (3DP) is a type of rapid prototyping technology. It is a technology that uses adhesive materials such as powdered metal or plastic to construct objects by printing layer by layer based on digital model files. 3D printing is usually achieved using digital technology material printers. It is often used […]
3D printing aluminum: a new material that can achieve lightweight, mass production applications in the future
Aluminum and aluminum alloys are considered to be one of the most promising materials for the next phase of the development of additive manufacturing into high-volume production applications. This is mainly due to aluminum’s excellent mechanical properties and low price compared to lightweight metals such as titanium alloys. However, the industrial application of additively manufactured […]
What is 3d printer
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is an umbrella term that covers several distinct 3D printing processes. The technologies are worlds apart, but the key processes are the same. For example, all 3D printing starts with a digital model because the technology is inherently digital. A part or product is initially designed using computer-aided […]
Application of metal 3D printing in F1 racing cars
It is mentioned in the Global Racing Vehicle Market Outlook [2023-2030] report that the global racing market size will reach US$644.5 million in 2022. The future compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to reach 8.96%. Racing is a sport that has extremely high requirements on speed, weight reduction and development cycle. It is natural […]
Additive manufacturing and subtractive manufacturing
Subtractive manufacturing differs from additive manufacturing in that it removes material to produce parts of the required dimensions. They are now deployed in many industries such as aviation, automotive, metallurgy, etc. This article in Antarctic Bear carefully discusses the differences between subtractive and additive manufacturing, and how they complement each other First of all, there […]
