Design Considerations for Metal Injection Molding
Metal injection molding (MIM) produces relatively small, complex, net or near-net parts which can include features such as holes, radii, logos, and text. Moreover, MIM can make such parts for half the cost of CNC machining or investment casting. Better...
What Is the Metal Binder Jetting Process
The process is referred to as a type of additive manufacturing because it adds material during the process, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing techniques (milling, grinding, cutting, etc.) that remove material from a solid block. Layers are added, rather than taken away...
Understanding Metal Injection Molding Costs for Parts & Tooling
Factors Affecting MIM Costs When it comes to cost and potential cost savings, there are three common ways to produce metal injection molds: 1. CNC Machining 2. 3D Printing 3. Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) Metal Injection Molding Techniques 1. CNC Machining CNC Machining,...
Top 10 Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Additive Manufacturing
Did you know that additive manufacturing (AM)has a variety of advantages over traditional manufacturing processes? Not only does additive manufacturing give you the ability to consolidate assemblies into a single part, but you also gain freedom of design that’s unimaginable with...
Using Metal Additive Manufacturing for Mass Production
You’ve probably heard all about the benefits of 3D printing for rapid prototyping. But did you know that many companies are now using additive manufacturing for mass production? While rapid prototyping is still a part of the game, it’s quickly...
Metal Additive Manufacturing for Small Engines
Once considered a technique only for prototyping, engineers are now realizing how metal additive manufacturing opens up new design opportunities for small engine manufacturing. Find out below how to make complex engine parts using additive manufacturing processes and reduce cost,...
