Before deciding on the methods or workaround to enhance our FFF 3D printed parts to be waterproof or watertight, we need to understand their differences. Waterproof means the 3D printed part will not be affected by water whereas watertight means that water will not enter […]
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the transfer of electricity between electrically charged objects and the static charges will result in damaging the semiconductor devices caused by an electrical short or dielectric breakdown or touched by an item that is charged or conductive. With the advancement in […]
In general, regardless of traditional manufacturing or 3D printing, the cost to produce the part depends on volume of material used, machine cost, production cost, cycle time and so on. The more the number of parts produce at one time cost lesser than producing one […]
Bringing 3D printed part to the next level by adding texture to the model makes it feel and looks like injection molded part. Since 3D printing is printing layer by layer, the cosmetic surface of the 3D printed part may not look as nice as […]
Before kick start projects for 3D printing medical devices, looking for biocompatible material is the key objective we are looking at, but how much do we understand about biocompatible materials? Biocompatible materials are materials that are natural or synthetic which are harmless to humans that […]
