3D printers have revolutionised the way we bring design projects to life. At the touch of a button, you can have detailed parts printed for complicated engineering projects. We can easily print intricate 3D components for the next space shuttle or necessary parts for...
There are now various options for advanced manufacturing, involving different techniques, including 3D printing and laser cutting. Both provide the potential to rethink your manufacturing processes using digital technology, but which is better? What is Laser Cutting?...
When considering using 3D scanning services, there will be a range of factors that will contribute to how much this will cost. It’s not simply down to the kind of equipment available, but also the size of the subject you wish to scan, the application of the 3D...
Reverse engineering (RE) is a mechanical engineering term. It is a process in which you take an existing object and reconstruct it by working backwards to discover how it has been designed and put together. If you think of a conventional design and production process,...
3D scanning has an element of “fear of missing out” as companies look at their competition doing well with it but are weary of investing themselves due to apparent low uptake with their existing clients, the need to skill up and the risk of acquiring something that...
What most amazes you about 3D printing? Could it be the 3D printed houses that are destined for the Netherlands? The fact NASA are using it to explore the impact of ice formations on aircraft wings or the fact it could possibly be used to help rebuild coral reef?...
