Intricate Geometries Made Possible
With our Digital Systems business, we worked on a proof-of-concept project involving a small, intricate device around 2cm wide. Printed in 316L stainless steel, the device had fine features and internal channels that would have been impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing. At its thinnest, the device is only 0.3mm thick – thinner than the average fingernail.
To ensure print success, our engineers at AMDC made small but critical design tweaks and formulated printing strategies to overcome manufacturing issues unique to the part's production.
