Experience the cutting-edge of metal 3D printing and the future of manufacturing with the Binder Jetting method proposed by Digital Metal in this video.
We would like to introduce the "No-Hand Production Concept" that Digital Metal is working on with its binder jetting 3D printers, a production automation system centered around 3D printing.
The system aims to produce small, precise metal parts at a high productivity and low cost by having robots handle most of the processes. You can watch the following processes in the video:
- 3D printing
- Robot handling of the build box
- CNC-controlled powder removal device
- Robot loading of parts into the furnace
Since 2013, Digital Metal has been supplying parts for industrial applications, and as of May 2019, approximately 40,000 parts of 30 different types are being mass-produced annually. Unlike Japan, where the use of metal 3D printers is mainly limited to prototyping and mold manufacturing, a trend is emerging overseas to directly utilize parts produced by printers.
Please take a look at the cutting edge of metal 3D printing and the future direction of the manufacturing industry.
