According to Jacob Nuechterlein, co-founder and solutions developer for Elementum 3D, the aluminum alloy used in the company’s newly invented metal matrix composite (MMC) is not 3D-printable on its ...
Researchers have found a way to make 3D-printed metal parts more heat-resistant, a technique that could pave the way for using additive manufacturing for high-quality parts for gas turbines and jet ...
Metal 3D printers are, by and large, many times more expensive than their FDM and resin-based brethren. It’s a shame, because there’s plenty of projects that would benefit from being able to produce ...
(Nanowerk News) A new MIT-developed heat treatment transforms the microscopic structure of 3D-printed metals, making the materials stronger and more resilient in extreme thermal environments. The ...
