Metal 3D printing services enable active control over the chemical composition, grain size, shape, orientation, and microstructure of different parts, fully leveraging the performance advantages of various materials. By combining the strengths of different materials and designing them "as needed," we tailor them to different parts of the components. This results in additive manufacturing gradient metal parts with performance that a single material cannot achieve.
Basic Concepts of Metal 3D Printing:
The core concept of metal 3D printing technology originated in the late 19th century in the United States, but it wasn't until the mid-1980s that it began to take shape. In 1986, American Charles Hull invented the 3D printer. China started researching 3D printing technology in 1991, and around the year 2000, these processes began to transition from laboratory research to engineering and product development. Back then, it was known as Rapid Prototyping (RP), the physical model created before developing samples. Now, it's also referred to as Rapid Manufacturing and Additive Manufacturing. However, for public understanding, this new technology is generally referred to as 3D printing. 3D printing is a type of rapid prototyping technology, which is based on digital model design and constructs three-dimensional objects by layer-by-layer "additive" printing using powdery metals or resins and other adhesive materials. Metal 3D printing is hailed as "last century's thought and technology, this century's market."
Features of Metal 3D Printing:
High precision.
The accuracy of current metal 3D printing equipment can generally be controlled below 0.05mm.
2. Short lead time.
The process of metal 3D printing without molds significantly reduces production time for models, often taking just a few hours or even minutes to complete a print.
3. Customization available.
Metal 3D printing has no limit on the number of models to be printed, whether it's one or multiple, they can all be produced at the same cost.
4. A wide variety of materials.
A metal 3D printing system can often accommodate printing with various materials, and this diversity of materials can meet the needs of different fields.
5. Cost is relatively low.
Although metal 3D printing systems and 3D printed metals are relatively expensive, they can significantly reduce production costs when used to create customized products.
Metal 3D printing materials are a crucial material foundation for the development of 3D printing technology. To some extent, the advancement of materials determines the broader application of 3D printing. Currently, metal 3D printing materials mainly include engineering plastics, photosensitive resins, rubber-like materials, metals, and ceramics. In addition, colored plaster materials, artificial bone powder, cell biological raw materials, and sugar-based food materials are also applied in the field of metal 3D printing.
These raw materials for metal 3D printing are specifically developed for metal 3D printing equipment and processes, distinguishing from common plastics, plaster, resins, etc. Their forms typically include powdered, filamentous, sheet-like, and liquid states. Generally, the particle size of powdered metal 3D printing materials used varies from 1 to 100 μm, depending on the type of printing equipment and operating conditions. To maintain good flowability of the powder, it is usually required to have high sphericity.
3D printing services are a digital, intelligent, low-cost, and short-cycle manufacturing technology that achieves the direct production of complex three-dimensional structures through simple 2D layer-by-layer material addition. It breaks through the theoretical limitations of traditional part forming and manufacturing technologies, theoretically not depending on traditional industrial infrastructure. It can directly produce three-dimensional complex structures with any internal structure, external shape, and geometric dimensions simply through "2D digital printing."
Due to its transformative advantages over traditional forming manufacturing techniques, 3D printing technology has become a hot direction in current fields such as equipment manufacturing, structural design, and new materials. Metal 3D printing technology is an important branch of 3D printing, playing a crucial role in the production of high-performance metal components.
