Design
Design for 3D printing, also known as Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), is an innovative process that allows to obtain components optimized to be produced with additive technologies.
The first step consists in selecting the component to be optimized, defining the geometric and dimensional limits and the materials that can be used.
We then proceed with an optimization phase, in which the design variables, objectives and constraints are defined, through FEM analysis.
The results obtained are interpreted to create a virtual model, which undergoes multiple iterations in the validation cycle, in order to reach the material resistance requirements.
Once the model has been validated, we move on to the generation of the final component, designed to be easily printable.
The 3D printing phase follows, during which the component is created with additive technologies.
Finally, the piece is subjected to an accurate dimensional check to verify its conformity.
This approach allows to obtain lightweight, high-performance components that are perfectly adapted to the printing process, reducing waste and development times.
3D Printing Service
The 3D printing phase represents the heart of the production process, where the digital project takes physical form.
