1. What is 3D Printing?

3D printing (3DP), also known as additive manufacturing technologies (AM), is a technique for manufacturing solid parts based on three-dimensional CAD data through layer by layer material accumulation.

The historical development of 3D printing technology is a continuous process of progress and expansion. From early rapid prototyping technology to its widespread application today, 3D printing technology has been applied in design and manufacturing fields such as jewelry design, footwear design and manufacturing, industrial design, architectural design, engineering design and construction, automotive design and manufacturing, as well as medical fields such as aerospace and dentistry.

2. What is the Advantages of 3D Printing?

Gerieflik en vinnig: 3D printing can directly generate parts of any shape from computer graphics data, without the need for mechanical processing or molds, greatly shortening the product development cycle and meeting the needs of complex or creative design.

Verminder produksiekoste: 3D printing simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces labor and material costs. Compared with traditional manufacturing, 3D printing does not require the establishment of production lines, is easy to operate, and can quickly and effectively produce various types of products.

Complex structure manufacturing: 3D printing technology can produce complex geometric shapes and internal structures that are difficult to achieve with traditional manufacturing methods without increasing manufacturing costs.

Shorten R&D cycle: 3D printing can quickly produce prototypes, accelerate product development and testing processes, and shorten the time from design to market.

Distributed manufacturing: Without the need for large centralized factories, production can be carried out in different locations, improving production flexibility and convenience.

Reduce mold costs: For some products that require molds, 3D printing can reduce or even eliminate the need for expensive molds.

Materiële diversiteit: Able to use various materials, including plastics, metals, ceramics, composite materials, etc., to adapt to different application scenarios.

Pasgemaakte produksie: Based on customer needs, easily manufacture unique products to meet personalized design requirements.

The application of 3D printing technology in modern industry is becoming increasingly widespread, and its unique advantages enable creators to achieve more imagination. Unlike traditional manufacturing methods, 3D printing technology allows objects to be directly manufactured from computer design files. The flexibility of this technology not only enables personalized customization of shape, size, and structure, but also enables quick and accurate conversion of complex geometric structures into solid products. 3D printing technology enables designers and engineers to create various stunning works at will.

3. What is Post Process of 3D Printing?

The post-processing of 3D printing technology refers to a series of processing and treatment of the printed parts after 3D printing is completed, in order to obtain better surface quality, accuracy, and performance. Post treatment methods available in the market include cleaning, polishing, spraying, and heat treatment.

Pollson - Dyewin Post processing includes powder removal, surface treatment, dyeing, and metal polishing.
