Abstract

3D printing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital model. 3D printing is achieved using additive processes, where an object is created by laying down successive layers of material. This work investigates surface finish improvement techniques used with 3D printed metal parts during the infiltration treatment. The goal is to produce an acceptable surface quality without performing a secondary machining process. Such a surface would be categorized as a D-series surface under the surface finish standards the injection molding process.
