Great explanation I was confused. I’m new to 3D printing and trying to do as much research before my birthday. That’s when I’m getting my printer so excited 😊😁
I am from Bangladesh My sister kidney patients Needs transplant How I Make appointment This hospital. Needs address and procedures. KIDNEY transplant expenses. And commicate a doctor for Appointment. Please Will send detail. Best regards Saleh.
spray painting with a dust mask is completely pointless, you might as well paint without a mask at that point. use a proper respirator rated for fumes and gasses
Maybe not 10X but yes it would definitely be more. Service bureaus make parts as a business and have significant overhead and processing costs that are factored in to a price.
Hey Matt, they are not safe to use. This project was conceptual in nature and representative of what you might see in the product development process of a helmet. Helmets are manufactured with rigorous and controlled processes to ensure safety and efficacy. This project was from some time ago, but today 3D printing is involved in the production of some helmet designs, mostly around the structure of the foam padding using advanced elastomeric materials to produce complex lattice structures
Rafts are a waste of time and material Just use a wider brim and lower your support densities and contact Save yourself some time and money rafts are basically useleas
Can you print with a metal that would work well for a Radiator (for a car) so you could print a lattice for the air to hit for your radiator? Or only 1 type of filament?
Awesome video! Do you know which material is best for transmitting vibrations, and not absorbing vibrations? I need to 3D print a mount for a transducer and need maximum vibrations to transfer through the mount. I'm thinking ABS is best but not 100% sure.
Hey Merv, I think materials with high rigidity would be best suited for the application you are describing. If you have access to it, I would recommend a composite based material like a carbon fiber or glass-filled reinforced Nylon. If not, engineering-grade thermoplastics like ABS or polycarbonate would be your next best bet.
hello. for cam program the Gcode are made with what? have their own internal machining program , can be use with other programs like fusion 360 or camworks, solidcam etc? Thanks
We have a number of different CAM and workflow management softwares that we work with including Hyperdent, Oqton, and Millbox all designed for dental applications.
Yes! You are correct, PolyJet photopolymers degrade over time due to UV exposure. It is a great technology for prototyping but would have limited end-use, long-term application. To overcome this, we use different 3D printing processes that enable materials with longevity. My recommendation would be to look at thermoplastics 3D printed with an extrusion or powder bed fusion process, long-chain chemistry photopolymers with a DLP process, or if required, evaluating metals.
It depends on the material and process but for the most part our polymer technologies produce fully-dense isotropic parts, however by taking advantage of design freedom you can optimize the interior and reduce material use.
Make the molds in our additive manufacturing service bureau, and sell the technology to make the molds. However, this video is old and our new specialty is production WITHOUT the molds. End-part production at scale with 3D printing
