We
specialize in creating parts with our DIMENSION FUSED DEPOSITION MODELING 3D PRINTER.
What is FUSED DEPOSITION MODELING?
Based on the patented
Stratasys FDM® process, Dimension builds functional 3D models from the bottom up, one layer at a time of with tough, durable
ABS plastic.
STL files are imported into Catalyst® software which automatically slices and orients the parts and
creates any necessary support structures. The software automatically plots a precise deposition path for Dimension to follow.
ABS plastic is fed into an extrusion head, heated to a semi-liquid state and accurately deposited in layers as fine as 0.010-inch
(0.254 mm) thick. After completion of the build, support structures are simply removed.
Basically,
instead of using a milling machine or lathe to remove material to create a part or prototype, we are adding
material in fine layers in order to create any shape we need. This process has numerous advantages. We are not limited to
mere geometric shapes. We can produce just about any conceivable shape; organic shapes, spheres, angles, arcs, rectangle,
square etc, or any combination of these shapes at one time. This would be very difficult using conventional methods of machining.
You are left with a part that is clean and ready to use. You will have a part in your hand, which until
now was just a concept or dream. You can put it to work immediately. If you need, the ABS parts can be sanded, milled, drilled,
tapped, painted and even electro-plated. We can also print parts in the following colors: white, red, blue, green, gray, yellow
and black. Custom colors may be ordered, but additional lead time will be required.
