At Every Unique Voxel a Unique Design and Material Best Suited for That Point and Application.
A voxel is a 3D pixel. A unit of 3D dimensional space, a voxel can be a virtually demarcated space in a 3D file or it could be somewhere on a physical object. Voxels can be assigned values relating to the single point that they represent. You could describe a voxel’s density, color, conductivity etc. […]

The Holy Grail for Enterprise Adoption: Reducing Part Count Through 3D Printing
One of the major advantages of 3D printing is in the ability to reduce part count. I’ve always felt that this advantage doesn’t get the respect it deserves. It is hardly mentioned in the media and its implications and advantages seem to not be understood. Therefore here is my attempt at a hopefully convincing article […]

Sinterit is Going White
Is it possible to achieve white color on a small SLS 3D printer? This question was asked a hundred times. Somehow clients love white materials, but in selective laser sintering technology, it was usually connected with big, industrial machines. Out of range for many SMEs. Now, Sinterit decided to change it and provide the first […]
