Over the last 100 years, stainless steel has played a vital role in many industries ranging from nuclear energy and, healthcare, right through to domestic appliances we use every day. Now manufacturers are looking to increase the potential of Stainless Steel even further by combining it with 3D printing.
3D printing is a method of manufacturing three-dimensional solid materials using a digital model. This process is generally carried out with the help of a materials printer that features digital technology.
Unlike conventional machining techniques that perform removal of material by cutting and drilling, 3D printing operates by additive processes in which successive layers of the desired material are deposited to create an object.
