Which Material Is Used for 3D Printing?

At present, the materials that can be realized by 3D printing technology are:

1. Photosensitive resin (plastic, printing technology SLA/DLP/LCD)

2. Metals (stainless steel, cobalt-chromium alloy, die steel, titanium alloy,

superalloy, Hastelloy and some precious metals)

3. Nylon, (SLS, MJF process, laser powder forming nylon has good strength, FDM printing nylon is formed by layer accumulation, the surface is rough, the layer pattern is obvious, and the performance is not as good as laser sintering)

4. Ceramics, DLP technology

In the future, with the continuous breakthroughs in the field of materials and the development of 3D printing technology, more materials can be printed, and the printing accuracy will also be calculated in nanometer units.
