3D Printing Metal with Water

Rapidia is a company out of Canada specializing in 3d printing metal parts using a slurry of metal particles with water. This mixture behaves a lot like clay, and have some very interesting properties. One of the best things about it is that it can be printed at room temperature with a very compact machine, thought it needs to be sintered in a high temperature oven afterwards.

The great thing about their printer is that it combines the strength of metal parts with the simplicity of operation, similar to a typical FDM printer.

Rapidia provided me with an axe head to say thanks for covering their booth at RAPID+TCT. Thanks Rapidia!
