Graphic Display World: Rethinking Design Techniques for High Speed Extrusion 3D Printing August 10, 2021August 10, 2021 | The Essentium Team Share Additive Manufacturing (AM) is no longer the way of the future. It IS the future. It is a proven technology that is radically changing the way products are made from shoes to NASA rocket parts. After years of stagnating productivity, many manufacturers are utilizing this transformative technology for large-scale production to increase flexibility and speed production times, leading to real innovation. Currently, there exists a common myth that AM can be used to create any part(s) designed for traditional manufacturing processes. However, similar to all other manufacturing processes, the key to success in adopting and deploying AM is to design specifically for the 3D printing process. As such, engineering designers will need to adopt new design principles to optimize a part’s functionality while reducing material, time, and cost. Read More: GraphicDisplayWorld.com Share
