Rapid machining  can be a valuable part of your prototyping and end-use production stages when designing or creating metal and plastic parts. It involves machining prototypes and parts to minimize the time taken to complete them. It is achieved by CNC machining but may include other solutions like 3D printing, depending on your part design and requirements. Reputable and experienced machining companies can expedite the process in various ways, but the speed, quality, and cost can depend on your requirements. It may involve roughing techniques and high-torque machines for faster material removal or aluminum alloys that are easy to machine. Knowing the factors affecting  rapid machining  can help you plan your project well. Materials The material options and the amount involved in your product can affect the price and manufacturing timeline. Some materials cost more for their unique chemical, mechanical, or physical properties or require a build process that can take time. Your r

Additive manufacturing lets you build three-dimensional objects based on your digital drawing model. It creates a custom   3D printing prototype  by adding materials one layer at a time or by sintering or fusing powdered materials, depending on the method you use.   Technologies have come a long way and introduced more 3D printing methods to help you make prototypes quickly, accurately, and cost-effectively. Here are the most common types you may want to know. Stereolithography SLA 3D printing is among the oldest and most versatile additive manufacturing technologies. It builds the object layer by layer using a photocurable resin cured with an intense UV laser in the build platform. The result is a  3D printing prototype  with a good surface finish and optimum accuracy to the CAD. The process involves support structures to keep the material in place while printing, but these are removed afterward. This technology is ideal for making aesthetic models and bespoke or low-volume pr
