Using electric pulses to finely post-process metal 3D printed parts

Researchers at Saarland University have developed a non-contact method for transforming 3D printed metal parts into high-precision technical components for specialist applications. The novel technique leverages electrochemical machining (ECM) to post-process additive manufactured metal components into precision-finished parts with complex geometries and dimensional tolerances of a few thousandths of a millimetre.  Such a method is […]
