What PMI means to the future of integrated CAD/CAM

By |2020-07-17T08:20:04-04:00July 17th, 2020|Categories: Inspection|0 Comments

Since the mid-1980s, when PC based CAD/CAM started its explosion due to the advent of 386 computing technology, our industry has had an ongoing hurdle to overcome . . . How to convey manufacturing and inspection information with the original model design. Historically a manufacturer would provide a job shop with a CAD model and an inspection drawing, increasing the likelihood for inspection drawing interpretation error. Wouldn’t it be ideal if the manufacturing and inspection [...]

Mold Making with Formlabs 3D Printers

By |2020-07-15T08:20:45-04:00July 15th, 2020|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, FormLabs|0 Comments

This post will explore 3D printing for mold making using Formlabs 3D printers. Mold making with desktop 3D printing allows engineers to expand their prototyping toolkit. It opens up a world of production materials, offering the ability to make short-run batches and to test designs before larger-scale production. Three types of molding strategies can be applied with Formlabs. These include injection molding, thermoforming, and casting elastomers. The Form 3 can print inexpensive injection molds to [...]

Metrology Minute – How Do I Choose My First Scanner? – Part 1

By |2020-07-08T08:38:04-04:00July 8th, 2020|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, 3D Scanning|0 Comments

Considering part sizes Notice that the title says first scanner. More than likely, companies who invest in non-contact inspection, scan-based reverse engineering or need to perhaps scan and 3D print objects will own multiple scanners in the course of a career. However, some scanners have the ability to swap out lenses, projectors and the like and can change a scanner’s capabilities by swapping hardware. Just like CNC machinery or 3D Printers, scanners can vary greatly [...]

Formlabs Launches New Materials

By |2020-07-01T08:49:46-04:00July 1st, 2020|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, FormLabs|0 Comments

One of the most powerful advantages of stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing is the wide range of printing materials and Formlabs recently announced six new materials across the Form 3, Form 3B, and Form 2 SLA 3D printers. These new resins continue to challenge what's possible with 3D printing by further expanding use cases and design possibilities with our existing printers. Our latest resins support a wide range of industries and use cases within these industries, [...]
