The Perfect Blend: 3D Metal Printing and CNC Machining

  In modern manufacturing, innovation constantly pushes the boundaries of what’s possible. Two technologies at the forefront of this revolution are 3D printing and CNC machining. While traditionally, they have been seen as competing methods, a growing trend is to combine these processes to realize the best of both worlds. This comprehensive post explores synergy between 3D metal printing and CNC machining; outlining how the combination has the potential to reshape the production landscape, allowing unprecedented detail, higher precision, and greater speed to market.

Glossary for Injection Molding Design Guidelines

  Whether your injection-molded part is simple or complex, understanding how certain elements can impact the manufacturability or the finished part quality is critical. The injection molding design guidelines provided in this glossary can provide you with general rules for proper design. Material selection and part complexity may change these values as each resin behaves differently when processed. QuickParts offers in-depth design for manufacturability (DFM) evaluations to ensure your product can be molded to your specifications. A-side/B-side In injection molding, the mold is divided into two halves, known as the A-side and B-side. The A-side, also referred to as the cavity side, typically contains the primary cavity where the molten plastic is injected. It is responsible for forming the external surface of the final product.  Originally published at:  https://quickparts.com/glossary-for-injection-molding-design-guidelines/
