Stainless steel 3D printing is suitable for producing high-strength, complex structural parts, especially in the automotive, aerospace, and medical fields.
Surface treatment can include polishing, sandblasting, pickling, etc, to achieve higher suface quality and appearance.
The choice of stainless steel should be based on the applied enviornment. InstaVoxel currently offers 316L stainless steel, which has high corrosion resistance.
InstaVoxel currently only offers the common 316L grade.
Stainless steel a metal with good corrosion resistant, heat resistant, and mechanical properties. This makes it useful in various applications, especially for products that require high corrosion resistance.
In the realm of machining, seven steel grades stand out for their exceptional suitability, each carefully selected to meet the specific requirements of the parts at hand. Among these grades, 1018 Steel stands out for its high machinability and weldability, making it an ideal choice for applications prioritizing ease of machining over high strength. Meanwhile, 4140 Alloy Steel has superior strength and hardness compared to carbon steel, offering exceptional impact resistance, fatigue endurance, and torsional strength. 1045 Carbon Steel, stronger than low carbon steel, remains easily machinable, adding versatility to machining operations. Additionally, 4130 Alloy Steel boasts improved weldability owing to its slightly lower carbon content, further enhancing its appeal for machining tasks. Lastly, 4340 Alloy Steel, a medium-carbon steel, proves highly effective in applications subjected to extreme impact, heat, and wear, showcasing its durability and versatility in demanding environments.
