3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is transforming industries by making it easier, faster, and more affordable to produce everything from prototypes to fully functional parts. At ANH Engineering Services, we specialize in custom 3D printing services using the latest technologies for industrial, commercial, and educational applications.
How Does 3D Printing Work?
- 3D Designing — Using CAD software like AutoCAD, Creo, or SolidWorks.
- Slicing — The design is sliced into layers by the slicer software.
- Printing — A 3D printer builds the object layer by layer.
- Post-Processing — Finishing steps like cleaning, curing, or polishing.
Types of 3D Printing Technologies
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)
- Process: Melts and extrudes thermoplastic filament through a heated nozzle.
- Materials: PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU
- Use: Prototyping, hobby models, mechanical parts
- Pros: Cost-effective, easy to use
- Cons: Lower resolution than resin or powder-based prints
2. SLA (Stereolithography)
- Process: Uses a laser to cure the liquid resin layer by layer.
- Materials: Photopolymer resin
- Use: Dental models, jewelry, high-detail prototypes
- Pros: High resolution and surface finish
- Cons: Resin can be brittle; post-curing is required
3. SLS (Selective Laser Sintering)
- Process: A laser sinters powdered material to form solid structures.
- Materials: Nylon, TPU, polymers
- Use: Functional prototypes, medical devices, tools
- Pros: Strong, functional parts without support structures
- Cons: More expensive and complex
4. MJF (Multi Jet Fusion)
- Process: Uses a fusing agent and detailing agent on powdered material, then heat to fuse layers.
- Materials: Nylon, PA 12
- Use: End-use parts, batch production
- Pros: Fast, strong parts with high detail
- Cons: Expensive industrial setup
5. DMLS/SLM (Metal 3D Printing)
- Process: Sintering or melting metal powder layer by layer using a laser.
- Materials: Stainless steel, titanium, aluminum
- Use: Aerospace, automotive, medical implants
- Pros: Functional metal parts
- Cons: High cost, industrial environment needed
Materials used in 3D printing
- Plastics — PLA, ABS, PETG
- Resins — Standard, tough, flexible
