What’s the Value of a Multi-purpose Tool Like Metal Binder Jet 3D Printing?

By |2024-02-02T08:26:42-05:00February 2nd, 2024|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, Desktop Metal|

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 applications, or where one operates in the supply chain.
