Turning an Organic Toy Design into a Manufacturing-Ready Model

By |2024-08-14T11:16:15-04:00August 14th, 2024|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, 3d Scanning & Reverse Engineering|0 Comments

Today's toy aisles showcase a wide range of shapes, from realistic animal figures to imaginative cartoon characters. Most of these toys are made of plastic, with their creation involving two primary steps: design and manufacturing. The challenge of designing toys is compounded during the manufacturing stage. Plastic injection molding is the most common method used, where detailed 3D designs are turned into molds for mass production. Effective software plays a crucial role in this process, [...]

De-risking Industrial 3D Printing with a Simple, Repeatable Simulation Workflow

By |2024-08-09T09:55:01-04:00August 9th, 2024|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, 3d Scanning & Reverse Engineering|0 Comments

Radical weight reduction, enhanced performance, and short lead times. These are just a few advantages that drive aerospace companies to adopt 3D printing. But one major challenge is deterring them from fully committing to the technology – the hefty price of mistakes. The materials alone are so expensive that printing a single part sometimes costs tens of thousands of dollars. Additionally, aerospace parts need to comply with exacting standards where the tolerance for errors is [...]

Improving the Surface Finish for 3D printed parts with the AMT PostPro SFX

By |2024-08-08T15:13:55-04:00August 6th, 2024|Categories: Technology|0 Comments

Cimquest’s Desktop Vapor Smoothing System the PostPro SFX from AMT is now operational. Which means that our application engineers are now capable of running benchmarks for customers who want to see how this technology and process will work for them. What is “vapor smoothing”? A solvent is vaporized in a chamber under carefully controlled conditions. The vapor evenly condenses on the external surfaces (and internal if there is line-of-sight) of 3D printed thermoplastic parts. This [...]
