How to Improve Polymer AM Productivity 20X
A fast cycle time is critical to efficient production 3D printing, but it’s not the only thing. How you choose the right parts for AM, prepare jobs for production, and manage post processing will have just as big an impact on total 3D printing throughput. It all needs to work together to achieve maximum productivity.
