Utilizing Construction Features for Theoretical Intersections in Control X
Inspection drawings will often have dimensions created to a theoretical intersection. What this means is that the dimension references one or more points in space that aren’t physically on the model. What do you do in situations like this? Let’s explore this in the example below.
Using the screenshot below, let’s assume that we need to dimension to locations in space where these lines would theoretically intersect if extended.

What’s the Value of a Multi-purpose Tool Like Metal Binder Jet 3D Printing?
Just like there’s no one tool to fit every job, 3D printing isn’t a panacea that’s right for every job either. And while the benefits of binder jet 3D printing can often be measured – customers routinely reduce the weight of their parts by 30 – 40% using our technology – much of the return on investment (ROI) of binder jetting lies in the complex intangibles and specific […]
