We had the opportunity to tour Precision ADM, a new service specializing in 3D printed metal parts.
The Canada-based service provides metal printing to a variety of clients worldwide in automotive, medical and other industries, where the equipment and expertise in 3D metal printing is not present onsite.
And that last point is one of two things that are very apparent when visiting such a 3D printing plant:
One: 3D metal printing is a very difficult process.
and
Two: You need significant equipment and facilities to even attempt proper 3D metal printing.
But let’s take a look at Precision ADM’s set up first.
