Why Manufacturers Are Turning to Metal Additive Manufacturing for Complex Parts

Expanding Design Possibilities MAM allows manufacturers to move beyond traditional boundaries. By creating parts layer by layer, it is possible to achieve geometries that were once thought impossible. From internal channels to lightweight structures to intricate features, MAM makes it easier to design without compromise.  For industries where performance, size, and reliability matter, this means […]

Not Your Father’s Fineblanking Technology

Fineblanking technology now can produce not only flat parts, but also those with 3-D features, often to size and position tolerances of less than ±0.025 mm. It also offers extremely high part-to-part repeatability; the first part and the millionth part are identical. A confluence of technologies has made such parts a reality (see Figures 1 and […]
