Cut Your Costs With In-House 3D Printing vs. Outsourcing

How Can I Cut Costs With In-House 3D Printing?

Businesses can expand their use of additive manufacturing by turning to large-format 3D printing. To produce larger parts, many currently turn to outsourcing. However, outsourcing 3D printing can be time-consuming and costly. In this eBook, we look at how in-house large-format 3D printing with the Form 3L stacks up against other methods of production, mainly outsourcing and using FDM printers.

Get this eBook and find out:

  • How in-house 3D printing compares to outsourcing and its benefits
  • How the two most popular types of 3D printers compare – SLA vs. FDM
  • The comparison of printing large parts to joining several small parts together
