Do you want to know that 3D printing technology is expanding its market by unique techniques? With the help of 3D printing, we can reduce their lead time to produce the parts. 3D printing offers various and unique opportunities to overcome traditional manufacturing challenges.

3D printing is an additive technology and mostly used to manufacture parts. It is ‘additive’ because it doesn’t require a block of material or a mold to manufacture physical objects or parts, it simply stacks and fuses layers of material. It’s typically fast, with low fixed setup costs, and can create intricate and complex geometries than ‘traditional’ technologies, with an ever-expanding list of materials. It is used extensively in the engineering industry, particularly for prototyping and creating lightweight geometries.

Each year, the range of available 3D printing materials expands rapidly, driven by market demand for specific material and mechanical properties. In 3D printing each printing process is compatible with only certain materials.

3d Printing Manufacturing in India

3D Printing Technologies:

In 3D printing there are four major technologies: Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Stereolithography (SLA), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), and Multi Jet Fusion (MJF).

1. Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM):

FDM (fused deposition modeling) 3D printing is used for creating custom parts by heating and extruding thermoplastics layer-by-layer. FDM can be used for initial and functional prototyping and low volume production in a variety of strong plastic materials like PLA, ABS, TPU, PETG and PEI . FDM is the most affordable 3D printing technology so far.

2. Stereolithography (SLA):

Stereolithography (SLA) is also known as resin 3D printing. It is a 3D printing technology that can produce parts with high resolution and accuracy with fine details and smooth surface finishes. It belongs from the vat photopolymerization printing family, SLA technology uses photosensitive thermoset polymers to produce some custom parts. SLA material comes majorly in the form of liquid resins.

3. Selective Laser Sintering (SLS):

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is an additive manufacturing process which belongs to the family of powder bed fusion. In SLS 3D printing, a laser selectively sinters the particles of a polymer powder, fusing them together and building a part, layer by layer. The materials used in SLS are mostly thermoplastic polymers which come in a granular form.

4. Multi Jet Fusion (MJF):

Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) is a 3D printing process that speedily produces accurate and finely detailed complex parts with powdered thermoplastics. This technology is used to manufacture functional prototypes and end-use parts. The parts that need consistent isotropic mechanical properties, and geometries that are organic and complex.
