3DEO Customer Case Studies For Metal 3D Printing
3DEO VS. INVESTMENT CASTING
Featured Case Study: Aerospace
As those who use investment cast parts in their products for the aerospace industry know, casting has always presented challenges: dimensional variation, post processing steps, non-destructive testing requirements, and uncertainty in material properties.
