Surface Treatment on Additive Manufacturing Parts

Surface Treatment on Additive Manufacturing Parts
It's common to see that 3D printed parts, once completed, reveal a type of texture based on the technology in which they were produced. Depending on the function, it is important that the part's surface has certain characteristics that eliminate the risk of compromising its functionality or that of the assembly it is part of. While various additive manufacturing technologies specialize in building a part with the accuracy and demands associated with quality requirements, surface treatment specializes in enhancing the part of prominent textures or retained waste, and RMN Additive offers the following surface treatment services for additive manufacturing parts. ...
