Take the small part of the bearing cage, which can be achieved by 3D printing. 3D printed bearing cages for rapid product design verification are now commonplace. When designing a 3D printed enclosure, the producer can generally adopt an interlocking structure, and the rolling bodies fix each part of the cage together. The purpose of this is to make the cage have more space around the circumference of the cage, and the bearing load can be distributed on a more significant number of rolling elements to achieve better performance.
Under the general trend of saving costs, improving construction precision, and improving product manufacturing efficiency, manufacturing products with 3D printing will pay more attention to factors such as materials, personnel, and equipment. With the constant maturity of 3D printing technology, much technical stuff such as bearings, valves, pipe fittings, shock absorbers, the crushing machine will be completed by 3D printing, and the quality of these products will be effectively guaranteed.
As the pace of the 3D printing business continues to accelerate, some problems are gradually emerging. In addition to the lack of understanding and application of 3D printing in the consumer market, the cost and maintenance costs of industrial 3D printing equipment are prohibitive for many SMEs. At the same time, although 3D printing can realize the manufacture of complex objects, the printed objects need to be assembled, materials cannot be repaired, and objects cannot be adaptively deformed. These also hinder the value of 3D printing technology.
Trunnano is one of the world's best metal 3D printing materials manufacturers. The primary 3D metal printing materials are titanium-based alloy grades, nickel-based alloy grades, aluminum-based alloy grades, iron-based alloy grades, and cobalt-based alloy grades.
