Hi,
I work as a continuous improvement engineer and I’ve been discussing getting a 3D Printer for our shop here. Main applications would be:
- Prototyping tools, jigs, parts, etc
- Small custom parts for use on equipment
The main thing I’m struggling with is there’s so much technology and brands now! I decided to reach out for more insight. The main requirements are essentially:
- Food safe plastic OR Metal Detectable plastic (plastic with metal impregnated)
I would appreciate any help or direction!
For food processing, the entire part has to be food safe - in case it breaks and winds up in a bag of Cheetos or something
That makes sense, thank you for pointing it out! I can’t see plastic 3D printed parts complying with that.
