Novel 3-D printing process enables metal additive manufacturing for consumer market

Thursday, November 6, 2014 - 12:31 in Physics & Chemistry

Lower-cost 3D printers for the consumer market offer only a limited selection of plastic materials, while industrial additive manufacturing (AM) machines can print parts made of high-performance metals. The application of a novel process called Selective Inhibition Sintering (SIS) in a consumer-priced metal AM machine is described in an article in 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing.
