Metal heat treatment is one of the important processes in the manufacturing of mechanical CNC parts and molds. Generally speaking, it can ensure and improve various properties of the workpiece, such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance, etc. It can also improve the microstructure and stress state of the blank, so as to facilitate all kinds of cold and hot working. Then what is metal heat treatment and what are the stages and types of heat treatment process? ......

As one of the key indicators to measure the quality of 3D printers, accuracy is very important for 3D printer products, and it is also a basis that users will refer to when purchasing. So how to judge the accuracy of a 3D printer and how to reflect the accuracy difference of 3D printers? It is obviously not comprehensive to consider only one aspect. 3D printing accuracy is a comprehensive technical accuracy for 3D printers, which needs to be measured comprehensively. There are many factors affecting 3D printer ac......
