The use of castable resins in the jewellery industry is a major breakthrough, saving costs and speeding up production times. This article explains the complete microfusion process using 3D printed parts with burn-out resins to replace traditional wax-cut models.

The manufacture of furniture using 3D printing offers numerous advantages for both designers and end users. This article unveils some of the possibilities offered by this manufacturing method in the furniture sector.

When 3D scanning an object, the user must take into account several useful factors when choosing the right equipment and, if necessary, using additional tools or products.

With the help of devices, tools and games, it is possible to foster STEAM skills in children and teenagers both at home and in schools. An example of this is Formbox, which allows a multitude of projects to be carried out to learn complex concepts in a practical way.

Advanced filaments for industry typically lack compatible support materials due to their high melting points. However, Infinite Material Solutions now offers a new soluble support material meeting these criteria, enabling complex part manufacturing with FDM 3D printing.

Desktop manufacturing equipment helps users to control their production process from start to finish without having to rely on external companies to produce professional quality products.

Thermoforming is a process that consists of heating a sheet or sheet of thermoplastic, so that when it softens it can be adapted to the shape of a mould by the action of pressure and vacuum. This is undoubtedly an enormously versatile and relatively inexpensive manufacturing process, very widespread in industry and very useful in the prototyping process.

There are a number of different adhesion products available, but the most common are spray adhesives, vaporisers and liquid adhesives. In this article you can find some of the most common problems that the user may encounter when using adhesive products to adhere to the base.
