Here's a 2 minute video showing each of the steps required to FFFMetal 3D Print the classic "Benchy" on an Ender 3D Printer.
The process took place over about 24 hours, but this shows you everything that needs to be done to execute this process.
Printing metal parts using Filamet™ from The Virtual Foundry is a process known as FFF Metal 3D Printing. Filamet™ is a type of 3D printing filament that is made from metal powder mixed with a thermoplastic binder material. This unique filament allows for the creation of metal parts using a standard FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) 3D printer.
The process involves loading the Filamet into the 3D printer and then printing the part in the same way that any other FFF filament would be printed. Once the printing process is complete, the part is then placed in a simple furnace or kiln where the thermoplastic binder is burned away, leaving only the metal powder behind. The metal powder then fuses together to form a solid metal part.
The advantage of using Filamet™ from The Virtual Foundry is that it allows for the creation of metal parts using a standard 3D printer, which is much more affordable and accessible than traditional metal fabrication methods. Additionally, the process is faster and more efficient than traditional metal fabrication methods, as it eliminates the need for tooling and reduces waste.
The Virtual Foundry offers Filamet™ in a variety of different metal powders, including bronze, copper, iron, stainless steel, and tungsten. This allows for a wide range of applications, from prototyping to small-scale production.
