There are several types of technologies used in 3D printing Dubai. We will discuss Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), SLA, and PolyJet. We will also discuss the differences between these technologies. You can learn more about each technology from the links below. Regardless of your chosen method, you can be assured that your final product will be a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. After all, the customer should be able to see their design before the print process begins.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), a common form of 3D printing, is a method for manufacturing objects by melting and forming raw materials. This technology utilizes a thermoplastic material called a filament, which is placed in a role that is driven by a drive wheel. The material is then placed in a nozzle, controlled by temperature, and heated to a semi-liquid state. The nozzle then precisely extrudes and guides the materials in ultra-thin layers. The work system follows the CAD model’s contours to create accurate and durable parts.
SLS
SLS is a popular 3D printing technology that requires heated print powder to fuse. As the print powder cools, it shrinks, and this loss of detail can be detrimental to parts made from SLS. However, this effect can be mitigated by designing the part’s interior with sanding, bead blasting, or lacquering. Design engineers and product manufacturers should follow these tips to avoid these problems.
PolyJet
The PolyJet 3D printing technology is an effective tool for creating various objects. The printer is versatile and can be used for printing various materials, from educational aids and toys for children to dental and body parts. PolyJet 3D printing technology can also produce a variety of complex shapes and features.
LENS
For several years, lens production has traditionally been achieved by milling the PMMA material. This method is time-consuming and expensive and often results in long lead times. However, companies have begun turning to 3D printing to speed up prototyping and reduce costs as these are some of the major benefits that this particular technology has to offer in general.
