SLS vs. SLA printing

Enfrentamiento de la impresión 3D en plástico: SLS frente a SLA

3D printing has transformed the design and production of parts, greatly facilitating rapid prototyping and even custom production. Two very important types of 3D printing technologies include Selective Laser Sintering, SLS for short, and Stereolithography, SLA. Although both make use of laser technology, laying parts one layer at a time, each of them does this

The General CNC Machining Tolerance: ISO 2768-mk

Tolerances are critical to ensure that parts meet design specifications and can be assembled properly. To help you better understand this concept, here is an adapted part manufacturing case. Suppose you are manufacturing 50 solid cylindrical shafts with a diameter of 50mm and a length of 100mm. These shafts are intended to fit into another

Finishing Showdown: Anodizing vs Powder Coating

When talking about the finishing of metal parts, two of the common surface treatments discussed will be powder coating and anodizing. Both processes provide critical benefits such as corrosion resistance, durability, and aesthetic appeal, but they achieve these in very different ways.
