In principle, an inkjet gun is the only handy way to print on metal. The handheld printer simply passes the obejct to print on and the desired content is "thrown" on its surface. So the surfaces can also be curved or corrugated. Stationary printers can not be so flexible to different object shapes (metal plate, metal barrel, metal can, ...). They usually only print flat. Likewise, the inkjet gun also prints on slightly uneven or rough surfaces.

As a leader in additive manufacturing for over two decades, ExOne sand D printers have helped foundries and pattern shops transform sandcasting by eliminating the need for hard tooling. Our binder jet D printing technology enables digital foundries to produce previously impossible shapes, consolidate complex cores to reduce assembly, or iterate design changes without the time or investment of traditional tooling.

The Customer Service & Parts (CSP) department at Daimler Buses is faced with the challenges of reducing storage and logistics costs and improving their long delivery times. The reasons why An increasingly broad portfolio and their promise to customers to supply spare parts for more than years after the end of series production. D printing proved its worth very quickly, achieving ideal key figures.

Inkjet printers are also comparatively inexpensive solutions. This applies in particular to monochrome printing. Ink is available in a wide variety of qualities and price ranges, so that you can choose freely depending on the application. Typical home user problems, such as ink drying or clogging of the print nozzles, rarely occur in industrial use due to the frequency of use. An inkjet gun is therefore also low-maintenance and less prone to errors. There is currently no better solution for printing on metal.
