From beginning to end, take a look at all the components of 3D printing to ensure you are making the best possible products safely, quickly, and not wasting materials in the process.
3D printing is taking over the industrial world and new printers are always a source of excitement. But, what seems to rarely be a source for that same excitement, is all the components that actually go into completing the job. We're talking about hazardous material clean-up, recycling old materials, software to get that precise cut, and cost-effective technology, to name a few.
Not all 3D printers are all-encompassing. Nor are they only for giant industrial applications. Here are some of the major components that are not always talked about, but definitely need to be a part of the conversation when it comes to 3D printing.
