Description
Summary:[...]consider 3D printing one of the kitchen's best-kept secret ingredients. To start, it's important to note the additive manufacturing technology standards that have been established by ASTM International: Power Bed Fusion Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is an additive manufacturing process in which an energy source, typically a laser, fuses metal powder particles together, layer by layer. * Metals: Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), an EOS trademark * Polymers: Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is a process in which an energy source, typically a laser, fuses polymer based powder particles together, layer by layer. Traditional castings often meet current performance standards-in gas burner designs, for example-but what if designing the ultimate balance between power and efficiency wasn't possible to produce via casting methods? LPBF and binder jet sintered parts can create complex geometries from 300 or 400 series stainless steel to provide your appliances the highest performance possible by design-not manufacturing. [...]these systems can provide flexible materials to simulate elastomers for plugs, vibration dampeners and hinges.
