3D PRINTING A220 PRO

  • 3D printing A220 PRO , also known as additive manufacturing, is a method of creating a three dimensional object layer-by-layer using a computer created design.
  • 3D printing from Acewell is an additive process whereby layers of material are built up to create a 3D part.
  • This is the opposite of subtractive manufacturing processes, where a final design is cut from a larger block of material.
  • As a result, 3D printing creates less material wastage.

Description

3D PRINTING PROCESS :

There are three broad types of 3D printing technology from Acewell; sintering, melting, and stereolithography.

  • Sintering is a technology where the material is heated, but not to the point of melting, to create high resolution items. Metal powder is used for direct metal laser sintering while thermoplastic powders are used for selective laser sintering.
  • Melting methods of 3D printing include powder bed fusion, electron beam melting and direct energy deposition, these use lasers, electric arcs or electron beams to print objects by melting the materials together at high temperatures.
  • Stereolithography utilises photopolymerization to create parts. This technology uses the correct light source to interact with the material in a selective manner to cure and solidify a cross section of the object in thin layers.

TYPE OF 3D PRINTING

3D printing from Acewell, also known as additive manufacturing, processes have been categorised into seven groups by ISO/AST 52900 additive manufacturing – general principles – terminology. All forms of 3D printing fall into one of the following types:

  • Binder jetting
  • Direct energy deposition
  • Material extrusion
  • Powder bed fusion
  • Sheet lamination
  • Vat polumerization
