Intro

This is 3D printing using Metal Injection Molding (MIM) Pellets.

How it Works

  • Metal Injection Molding pellets are used as feedstock for a 3D printer
  • The completed 3D print is sintered in an oven after 3D printing
  • A full metal part is the result

Useful Links

  • Composite Extrusion Modeling or "CEM" process.
  • This is a fancy trade name for 3D printing with metal-embedded plastics.
