Matsubara said, \u201cMaraging steel has been common until now, but I felt that the range of <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/insights\/applications\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">application<\/a>s not only for insert p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s but also for mold making would expand if it was equivalent to SKD61.\u201d<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eaeaea7a; padding: 15px 30px; overflow-wrap: break-word; display: flex; align-items: center; border-radius: 4px; box-shadow: -1px 4px 20px 0px #dedede; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 1; padding-right: 30px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 14px;\">Manufacturing on Demand<\/h4>\n<div style=\"display: block;\">3D Printing with over 100 materials, shipping globally with competitive low cost, get quotes for your projects now!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a style=\"background-color: #0baee8; color: white; padding: 10px 20px; border-radius: 4px;\" href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><i class=\"fa-fw auxicon auxicon-cloud-upload\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Get Quote<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/1506421879872872772.jpeg\" \/> Touring Innovation (Moriyama-ku, Aichi Prefecture), which is the company\u2019s manufacturing subsidiary handling trade and mold consulting and will host the two metal AM systems from GE.<\/p>\n<p>After hearing about SKD61 equivalent materials in mid-February, Nippon Seiki decided to install equipment in April. \u201cThere is no doubt that a metal <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a>er will be needed to make molds. At that time, it is not interesting to be a latecomer. It is necessary to accumulate know-how ahead of other companies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The metal <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a>ers introduced this time are intended to be used specifically in the modeling of SKD61 equivalent materials and will st<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a> with the modeling of insert p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s. The reason is \u201c[when dealing with multiple materials] it takes too much time to replace the powder, and we are proposing to replace maraging steel with SKD61 equivalent material.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The initial aim is not to make the final p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s themselves, but to strengthen the proposals to the design area and to lead to structural changes in the industry. Matsubara said, \u201cThe most important area in mold making today is the design area. If the adoption of p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s made with metal <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a>ers becomes widespread, it will be necessary to review the design of the entire mold. If it can be integrated with mold technology, we can propose it to the design area. In addition, it is necessary to handle not only design but also processing, heat treatment, and analysis in total.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Story via Kanagata Shinbun<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: grey;\">* This article is reprinted from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3dprintingmedia.network\/nippon-seiki-acquires-two-m2-systems-from-ge-additive-to-produce-molds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D Printing Media Network<\/a>.
