3 D printing on metal

Although conventional 3 D printing has been around for decades, it is mostly used by amateur and designers who produce single prototypes. And the manufacture of objects from anything other than plastic was a difficult, long and very expensive process.

However, now the metal seal is gaining momentum, and it becomes cheap and relatively easy to manufacture parts.

This technology in the short term is able to relieve producers of huge inventory with replacement parts: the required component can be made at the request of the buyer.

In the future, to completely reverse the traditional production process, as well as reduce the size of factories and improve the quality of products.

So, it will be possible to create lighter, more durable details and complex forms that are impossible with the use of conventional methods of making metals.

The Boston company «Markforged» has already introduced its first printer for metallic 3 D printing. «General Electric» is currently testing a metal printer capable of manufacturing parts for aviation production.
