3D printing technology, also known as Additive Manufacturing (AM), utilizes the principle of traditional printers by adding layers to create three-dimensional objects.
Through the 3D printing process, Porite Taiwan assists customers in the early stages of metal part development and sample testing before mold creation for metal injection molding parts. The flexibility of the 3D process, along with the convenience of not requiring molds, helps customers shorten development times and analyze product differences in different designs. Currently, Porite Taiwan can provide samples within 5-6 weeks after receiving 3D drawings.
Selective Laser Melting (SLM)
This process uses a high-power laser to melt metal powder in a powder bed, building parts layer by layer. It is suitable for parts that require high precision and strength. Porite Taiwan's SLM process offers materials such as stainless steels SS316L, 17-4PH, 420J2, maraging steel, titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V, and nickel alloys Inconel 625 and 718.
Metal Binder Jetting (MBJ)
This process involves using a binder to glue metal powder into shape, followed by debinding and sintering. It is suitable for producing and verifying samples in the development stage before large-scale MIM production of small parts. Porite Taiwan's MBJ process mainly uses stainless steels SS316L and 17-4PH.
Material Extrusion (FDM)
This process involves extruding parts layer by layer from thermoplastic metal wire (0.4mm diameter), followed by cleaning, debinding, and sintering. Unlike MBJ and SLM, this process does not produce dust, but the finished product has lower dimensional accuracy and higher surface roughness. Porite Taiwan's FDM process offers materials such as 17-4PH stainless steel, tool steels H13, A-2, D-2, nickel alloy Inconel 625, and pure copper.
