Metal 3D printing types
Metal 3D printing produces strong and durable parts. They can be printed using high-strength, lightweight materials with high tensile strength, hardness, and wear resistance. Here are the types of metal material 3D printing processes that Xtmade offers.
Selective Laser Melting (SLM)
Electron Beam Melting (EBM)
Laser Deposition Welding(LMD)
Metal Powder Application(MPA)
Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS)
Metal Binder Jetting
Thinking about metal part design
Subtractive manufacturing techniques limit what you can create. Metal 3D printing enables you to produce part designs that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing techniques. For example, the following design points cannot be produced with subtractive manufacturing techniques.
- Internal supports
- Grille wall sections to reduce weight
- Conformal cooling channels
- Undercuts
- Draft angles
- Internal cavities
- Various wall thicknesses
Materials
- Titanium
- Steel
- Stainless steel
- Aluminum
- Nickel
- Cobalt
- Copper
- Inconel
- Gold
- Platinum
- Silver
Surface finishing
- Abrasive Blast (Grit & Ceramic)
- Shot Peen
- Optical Polish
- Electrochemical Polishing
- Abrasive Flow Machining
- Electroplating
- Micro Machining Process (MMP)
What is Metal 3D Printing?
Metal 3D printing is an additive manufacturing process that produces parts by fusing metal particles together layer by layer to form a metal component. It is often chosen as an alternative to CNC machining or metal casting because it can produce parts with the strength and durability of metal while also taking advantage of the design freedom that 3D printing offers. It can produce complex designs and structures that are impossible to manufacture through traditional CNC machining.
Applications of Metal 3D Printing
Metal 3D printing can be used for rapid industrial tooling, as well as parts with complex curvatures and small, thin-walled parts such as conformal jigs and fixtures, stamps, dies, and cutting inserts. In addition, metal 3D printing can be used to integrate fastening features, end effectors, and metal lattice structures. Because metal 3D printed parts have excellent durability and strength, they can be used for fully functional late-stage prototypes or end-use parts for any of the above applications.
- Functional Prototypes
- Direct Digital Manufacturing
- Molds and Inserts
- Piping Systems
- Rapid Tooling
- Spare Parts
- Rigid Housings
- Radiators and Heat Exchangers
Advantages of Metal 3D Printing
- Parts with unique geometries can be produced, and parts that cannot be made by other means can be made. For example: internal cavities and other complex features that cannot be machined or cast.
- Design freedom allows parts to be combined into lighter, cheaper, and more reliable printable parts.
- Great for rapid prototyping, prototype part designs can be quickly iterated, and multiple design ideas for a part can be printed simultaneously to determine which is the best functional design.
- No fixtures or tools are required to produce metal parts. And part designs can be easily modified or fine-tuned during production.
- For large-scale production of custom parts, metal 3D printing services can quickly produce hundreds of production-quality parts to keep production lines running when production needs to be bridged.
- Metal 3D printed parts have excellent toughness and can produce jigs and fixtures for CNC machining, part inspection, and other uses.
