3D printing is not new. The technology has been evolving and, today, you can get a variety of 3D printers. Some are simple and use materials to create prototypes. Then there are more sophisticated 3D printers that can use a variety of harder materials, even metals, to create parts that can actually be used in production. This is a growing segment and one can start a 3D printing service with just a few equipments and a small space.
3D printing can be highly profitable in India because there are only a few of them and competition is less. You can start 3D printing service India based by following these tips.
There are seven different types of 3D printers available, ranging from the simplest for prototyping, to highly complex for actual part manufacturing using sintered metals. The fused deposition modelling type of printer is highly affordable. It uses plastic filaments that are fused in the machine and deposited to create 3D parts that can even be used commercially, not just for prototypes. The stereo lithography 3D printer uses liquid plastics and lasers to create three dimensional parts but this can be expensive and time consuming. Selective laser sintering 3D printers use a laser and powdered materials to form 3D parts. Such machines can use nylon, glass, ceramics and even metal to form parts. Cost varies and you have to decide based on the clientele you wish to serve and investment you can make. You can get assistance from Binashree in picking the right 3D printer.
The 3D printer will be tied with a computer system that runs specialized 3D printing software. In order to give your clients the best you must have engineering knowledge, knowledge of materials, and knowledge of structural integrity and, above all, knowledge of how to use software to create the most cost efficient parts. Some training will definitely prove very useful if you wish to run a 3D printing service India but Binashree is here to help so do not worry. You get equipments and training on use of software.
Even before you start looking for a 3D printer you must know about potential of the market. Can you get sufficient orders to ensure steady cash flow that will give you solid returns? It is no use buying a printer and watch it lying idle.
Small table top 3D printers are affordable. You can use them to create small 3D prototypes and even components that can be used in production but you will not be able to make larger parts or more solid engineering grade components. You will need a more expensive and larger sized machine to create laser sintered 3D parts and you can meet needs of more demanding industrial users besides having capability to supply parts on a regular basis, not just one-off prototypes.
Think about all aspects carefully and then get in touch with Binashree for sourcing the right 3D printer for 3D printing business in India.
