There are many different suppliers who use the 3D printing process to make models or parts. Depending on the requirements and the application, it is important to decide whether plastic, metal or another material should be used in 3D printing. It is also possible to select from different quality levels (e.g. infill or precision) of […]
Basically, the price of 3D printing depends on the size, the volume, the requirements of the material and the used printing process. Just as larger components are usually more expensive than small ones, metal components are more expensive than plastic. Here, however, the costs can vary greatly within a material group, and plastic parts made of […]
Basically, a gear is a circular disc with regular notches (serrations) that run the full circumference. It is used to transmit (kinetic) forces to another gear or a chain. Two or more gears combined together form a gearbox. At the same radius, the wheels act on each other with the same force. If the radii […]
Simply explained, a gear is a wheel, along the outer edge of which serrations are attached. Two gears whose teeth are identical in shape and gap, can run against each other and thus transmit power from one to the other gear. The gears with the same toothing can have different sizes. With two interlocking gears, […]
The 3D printing method known as Multi Jet Modeling (MJM) involves layers of photopolymer being placed on top of each other and cured with the help of UV light. This method is also widely known as the Inkjet or Polyjet method. During the printing process, the 3D object is built up layer by layer by […]
