Desktop Metal Studio Solution

By |2017-12-19T09:37:24-05:00November 1st, 2017|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, Desktop Metal|

Additive Manufacturing of metals originated in the early 1990's through a process known as direct metal laser sintering. This process uses laser toolpaths to weld powdered metals into three dimensional parts. While effective, the technology has major barriers to entry due to the volatile nature of metal powders. These powders are reactive and can cause fires, requiring significant investments in infrastructure, including explosion proof rooms, respirators, and not to mention highly specialized operators. All of [...]

Using SolidWorks PMI for Final Inspection

By |2017-12-21T08:58:41-05:00October 11th, 2017|Categories: SOLIDWORKS, Tech Tips|

Let’s discuss two pieces of software that work really well together in the 3D part inspection world: SolidWorks, and Control X. SolidWorks is one of the leading CAD tools in today’s design and manufacturing world. One of its advantages is that it offers you the opportunity to create a 3D annotated model. This can include things such as explicitly-specified dimensions, tolerances, 3D GD&T, surface texture symbols, finish requirements, and so on. This 3D annotated model [...]
