Metal 3D printing is a rapidly growing industry, and for good reason. With the ability to create complex geometries and functional parts with high precision, metal 3D printing is changing the way manufacturers approach production. At Azoth 3D, we specialize in metal 3D printing, and we're here to share with you the advantages of this…

Additive manufacturing (AM) is proving to be an alternative to metal injection molding (MIM). But in some cases, it can be a highly effective first step in MIM. Attendees Of This Webinar Will Learn: Webinar Speakers

Azoth’s Metal Binder Jetting (MBJ) excels in producing intricate small metal components with remarkable resolution. Unlike other metal 3D printing methods, Azoth’s MBJ delivers an exceptional as-printed surface finish, typically achieving a roughness average (Ra) of around 6 micrometers. This results in a surface texture reminiscent of fine sandpaper, providing both tactile appeal and a…

Filaments? Resins? Powders? The world of plastic 3D printing can indeed feel confusing and overwhelming. Within it, a multitude of technologies exists, each offering distinct advantages and unique limitations. While the foundational concept of constructing a part layer by layer remains consistent, nearly every other aspect can vary significantly. Factors such as mechanical properties, part…

At Azoth, stainless steel takes the lead as our workhorse material, and rightfully so! From high end luxury goods, safety critical automotive parts, and almost everything in between - stainless steel is an incredibly versatile and cost-effective material.  This article will provide you with a practical understanding of what stainless steel is and define its…

Metal Material Jetting (MMJ), also known as the trademarked term Nano Particle Jetting, is a groundbreaking 3D printing method that utilizes nano-sized metal particles contained in a liquid suspension. Following deposition, the liquid suspension quickly evaporates, leaving compact metal particles with a minimal amount of binder. Like metal binder jetting, the as-printed parts undergo a…

“Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” -Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, French writer and aviator Design and manufacturing are inextricably linked. The brilliance of a design is rendered useless if it lacks feasibility in manufacturing. A skilled designer consistently considers the practical aspects of…

Powder metallurgy, the process of converting fine powders into usable parts through pressure and sintering, has been used in mainstream manufacturing for over a hundred years. Techniques, materials, and processes have all steadily improved as the adoption of the technology has gained significant popularity. The figure below illustrates the range of processes available to modern…

The world of 3D printing (formally known as additive manufacturing) is a diverse landscape that encompasses a variety of technologies, materials, and equipment. To a newcomer, it can be quite overwhelming. This article will help you to navigate the terrain by guiding you through binder jet 3D printing and its top five benefits. What is…

In this project, Azoth’s customer had tooling fixtures that were expiring over time and did not have a blueprint to make them or supplier to replace them. Azoth took a quick 3D scan of the component, modified the part to eliminate the failure mode, and printed the component. The replacement part was delivered in 2…

Utilize Azoth’s TOMO business model to create your digital inventory instead of physically stocking spare parts and components that may or may not be used. Azoth can evaluate your inventory to determine which parts can be printed on-demand, in turn drastically decreasing the cost of carrying an inventory. Have an Azoth linked printer onsite or…
