metal 3D printing cost

It can sometimes be more affordable to simply 3D-print a complex or custom metal part for many industries. Here at Whale-Stone we know that controlling the price of 3D printing in metal is particularly important to companies. There are tactics to employ that will still save money on metal 3D printing while preserving the quality of results. Further savings may be had through bulk orders, which can take advantage of wholesale metal 3D printing pricing. So, how can businesses really make the most of their budgets when it comes to using specialist metal 3d printing services?

One of the ways to help cut costs of metal 3D printing is by ensuring that parts are properly designed for production. So complex or detailed designs can take longer to print – using more material – and cost you more than those based on simple structures. Cut back on the design but not the features to cut costs (not quality). Whale-Stone says it also provides design optimization so that customers can develop more affordable metal printer parts.

How to save money on metal 3D printing

Another way to save costs is choosing the appropriate type of metal material for the job. Various metals and price ranges make choosing a low-cost but appropriate material choice can affect the overall cost of printing. We work hand in hand with our customers, recommending optimal metals relative to costs and project specifications – we offer budget-friendly materials in our projects not bargains.

Furthermore, combining multiple sections of a part into one print job can also minimize setup and print time costs. Increasing the size of your build plate to its full capability as well as having part consolidation will save you money from one metal 3d print to the next.
