Additive manufacturing with Multi Jet Fusion is a direct alternative to conventional manufacturing. The strength, performance and reliability of industrial 3D printing meet the rigorous demands of applications across all industries. With this wider adoption has come a growing interest from end users, from entry-level engineers to seasoned product managers,...
The ability to produce fully functional assemblies in a single step is one of the unique benefits of 3D printing. By leaving small gaps in the 3D designs of Multi Jet Fusion parts, interlocking and moving components are produced right out of the machine. These can range from single-axis rotation,...
Apple was one of the companies that put the aesthetics of its products on an equal plane with the functionality of its products. When they were competing for market share in the 90s and 2000s, iconic design and a better user experience helped establish them as one of the most...
As 3D printed parts become more commonplace in industrial applications, functional integration is becoming increasingly important. A secure mechanical attachment to the larger system is one of the key success factors. With a secure attachment, the part—and the entire system—gains strength and reliabilityOver the past five years, there have been...
Combining assemblies (groups of parts) into a single unit is one of the most publicized benefits of 3D printing. Its popularity pertains to the outsized benefits from the most public cases that combine 20 (or more) parts into a single, producible component. But especially in the current economic climate, where...
