Additive Manufacturing & 3D Printing

Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the fabrication of complex geometries, customized components, and functionally integrated structures that are not achievable through conventional manufacturing methods. Reliable process control and material validation are essential to ensure consistent performance, structural integrity, and application-specific functionality.

At Materials Metric, we provide additive manufacturing support services across multiple AM technologies, focusing on material behavior, process optimization, and performance validation. Our workflows integrate material characterization, process evaluation, and mechanical testing to generate quantitative and reproducible data that supports product development, quality control, and engineering validation.

Our approach follows a Process → Material → Performance framework, ensuring that printed components meet defined functional, structural, and application requirements. All work is conducted under ISO 9001:2015–aligned quality systems, with the ability to integrate additional analytical and testing services as part of a comprehensive evaluation.

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a material extrusion process that uses thermoplastic filaments to build parts layer by layer. This technique is widely used for rapid prototyping and functional components. Materials Metric supports evaluation of material behavior, layer adhesion, and process consistency to ensure reliable part performance.

Stereolithography (SLA) / Digital Light Processing (DLP)

Stereolithography (SLA) / Digital Light Processing (DLP)

SLA and DLP utilize photopolymer resins cured by light to produce high-resolution parts with fine surface finish. Materials Metric provides evaluation of curing behavior, dimensional accuracy, and material stability to ensure consistent and reproducible fabrication.

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses a laser to sinter polymer powders into solid structures without support materials. This process enables complex geometries and functional parts. Materials Metric supports powder evaluation, process consistency, and performance validation of sintered components.

Powder Bed Fusion (Metal AM)

Powder Bed Fusion processes such as Selective Laser Melting (SLM) and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) enable fabrication of high-strength metal components. Materials Metric provides support in powder characterization, process evaluation, and structural validation to ensure performance in demanding applications.

Binder Jetting

Binder jetting involves selective deposition of a binder onto powder beds to create parts, followed by post-processing such as sintering. Materials Metric evaluates material compatibility, green part stability, and final part performance.

Direct Ink Writing (DIW) / Material Extrusion (Advanced Materials)

Direct Ink Writing (DIW) uses extrusion of viscous materials such as hydrogels, ceramics, and composite inks. This technique is particularly relevant for advanced materials and biofabrication. Materials Metric supports evaluation of material behavior, printability, and structural performance.
