- In this video I want to find out how strong is SLM 3D printed metal (316L stainless steel) and I will compare it with FDM printed ABS. SLM printers are expensive, that's why it is good to have affordable source for 3D printing services. JLCPCB primary services is PCB manufacturing, but they also have 3D printing services.

I always love watching your videos. I believe this is my first time commenting, but I've watched many of your videos. You put so much effort and production value into these videos without getting many views. I can really appreciate someone doing that. I also really enjoy and appreciate how analytical you are with your tests and how thorough you are. Keep up the great videos!
I love how diligent you are with your tests. Thank you!
I love the homemade material characterization lab! Thanks for documenting your results with this vendor!
Thanks for all the work you put into your tests!
3d printed metal looks amazing, I can't wait for technology to develop to a point where we can have these metal printers cheaply in our homes
A truly great video indeed, that 3d printed drill bit really impressed making me appreciate the possibilities of metal 3d printing.
Beautiful work! Thanks for taking the time to educate us :)
This looks like printed metal may be useful for instead of castings you can do this and put all the finished or critical dimensions with a mill or lathe! Very cool!
Igor, thanks for your nice videos. Appreciate how thorough are your tests. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much!
I loved seeing the metal 3d prints! That drill bit was amazing
Thank you for this video. I've wondered about the strength of printed metal and the possibility of machining it. Very thorough video as always. Have a good day.
Great video. It is extremely impressive how far we have come with 3d printed metal.
Excellent video. And very thorough analysis. Kudos
Excellent, thank you for collecting the data. I'd love to see them offer SLM in Aluminum, especially... ease of machining after printing is important, my/most small tabletop precision lathe and milling machines struggle with stainless steels.
Great video and great experiments! Thanks for sharing the tests!
subscribed on the first video i have seen from you , which was this one.
these videos are very valuable ! thank you for your hard work and nice presenting !
That’s a really valuable video, greetings and thank you for your time
Great videos as always!
Great video as always!
Excellent stuff :)
Thanks a lot for your efforts to help to test those materials, really helpful~

@@Fpvfixit 😆Definitly no problem~
Congratulations for appearing in Maker Update on the Digi-key channel, we hope that more people know the excellent content that you upload to this channel
Thank you very much for informing me!
Support comment from Thailand. Your VDO is great information and useful.
Impressive Steel
Great test
Thanks for sharing your experiences with all of us :-)
Great video! would love to see tests done on Virtual Foundry metal filaments for FDM printers!
The truth is that the stainless steel part is not sintered but actually melted - the laser MELTS the metal particles. "Sintering" is not just misleading, it is wrong.
I had the same problem with a PETG fan duct deforming at the nozzle like yours. So I made another one and coated that last bottom inch or so with epoxy, inside and out .That solved it. Before it was worse than yours since my ducts are quite thin. It's been a couple of years now with the epoxy it's still pristine.
what kind of epoxy?, can you share?
@@mycinemax2653 Just a regular two part epoxy like UHU or Araldite. I just used a cheap dollar store brand and just pantied a little on, letting the excess drip off a corner where it won't interrupt the airflow.
@@GBCobber thank you..
Awesome video.
Great video. now I'd be curious to see a comparison of SLM and FDM metal parts.
Yes, that would be interesting, but that filament is extremely expensive (that needs sintering)
Very interesting!
This is amazing !
We could now design custum width drills with built in threading and champhering ! ( for any materials sufficiently softer than stainless steel ) I will deffinatly be using this service to help me with my prototypes.
Might be interesting to see it the 3D printed metal could be sharpened and how much it would cost to make a custom knife.
Great video. Keep up the good work.
The types of steel used could be a problem....
More tests about accuracy of the metal parts, would be interesting.
And now I need to buy a SLM printer...
Good video, wish they had printed the steel test parts vertically and surprised that a professional printing service did such a bad job matching the specific dimensions. One thing that would be useful is if you could maintain a master test results file that combines the results of all your tests. Always like your testing methodology given the limitations of a small budget. Something that could be interesting and are relatively cheap in the US is a small hydraulic press for vertical compressive test.
Great video and very nicely documented! are you Hungarian by the way?
Super interesting
The years you spent as a student at the technical school paid off: We now know metal is stronger than plastic.
This is awesome, big fan of your work.
Also hope you do aluminum or titanium one day
Something like this? ua-cam.com/video/Gkim2NgnAVA/v-deo.html
@@MyTechFun 😂 just like that thanks
Nice work , very strong steel , a yes sls machines are super expensive , but they ate amazing , some proces after printing do some kind of anhiling or cocking the printed steel (i dont known what machine and proceses they use).
better test would be to test ultrafuse 316l FDM vs FDM ABS, Nylons or PC
very cool. thanks for these tests.
Did you sharpen the stainless steel drill before drilling with it or you used it as it arrived from JLCPCB with zero post processing?
For wood zero post processing but I noticed a lot of heat. Then I just touched the back surfaces to grinder stone and then drill ali like a real tool
Thank you for the details shared, though I already get my 3D order from JLC 😂😂😂
overall good quality and timing
good vid
Could you test as well about welding ability ?
No, sorry, I don't have a welding machine (yet) :-(
Hi Igor, I really enjoy your videos. There are very fast printers like Bambu Lab X1 and FLSUN V400 on the market, would it be possible to test how much fast printing affects print strength? I think the hotend and the cooling method would have a big influence on the strength, I wonder if for example the volcano/volcano cht has more durable prints in high speeds than the v6 or creality hotend.
You are right, diferent hotend give diferent strenght depending of speed, but its more a matter of flow (mm3 /s)
E3d v6 will have a maximum flow of 10mm3,
Volcano will be closer of 20 /25 mm3
Exeeding these flow rates will tend to give weaker prints because the plastic is improperly melted.
Drilling aluminum with a metal 3D printed drill bit is amazing.
I love your video and you're amazing 👏
And steel 3d printer is interesting and I don't know type of 3d printer making impossible things 🤔
Grettings from Bečej
Hvala. Pozdrav!
Good Morning Doctor Igor,
Thank you for your teachings!
I am curious.. Would you consider testing your 3D Printed (FDM) PLA, PLA+, or PLA advanced against the SLA metal?
I ask because I am curious that the values of mechanical strength will be much closer in value compared to ABS as ABS is consistently weaker than your PLA testings.
As such I think PLA/PLA + would be a better match up.
Lastly, my friend how do I view the live updated excel spreadsheet of all filaments/substrates which have been tested?
Thank you
I already did some similar tests, search on the channel a little bit. Or you can do it on my website: www.mytechfun.com/videos/3dprint
You didn't specify the printing orientation? It it actually makes a difference as it would for your testing you need to specify it of course. Other than that they use software to make most out of the print volume. The model orientation doesn't make any difference in cad.
sls why not?. metal can fix better then plastic and when drill made from good material without coating, you can run it. why not drilling
ありがとうございます❤

Great video! Do you recommend JLCPCB? I’m always aware to buy things in China 😬
Since this video I ordered few things from them, when I need something stronger than 3D printed part on my printers.. They have a great price and also they have CNC services now (there will be a new video about CNC)
Can you release your drill STL file? I went on JLCPCB and the cost for parts were pretty expensive. Greater then $100. I would just like to see if the price has been drastically raised since your video.
That would be a big difference, when I tested it, it was $18. You can download it from this page: www.mytechfun.com/video/212
@@MyTechFun It's $18.28. I guess the price is mostly based on volume and if it needs support. My part did not seem much bigger but price must be exponential with volume/support.
I have a widget I need to 3d print in stainless steel. How do I go about it? I don't have the files to upload so I can't get anyone to print for me...
Login to their site, upload the file and you will see the estimated price. You can decide if you want to order it or not.
Who did the metal printing for this and what process is it exactly?
JLCPCB 3D printing services. Laser melts metal powder layer by layer.
@@MyTechFun Ok, but I went looking at their site and all I could find was plastic 3d printing.. Is there a link for their metal printing service?
@@saumyacow4435 It is in the video, screen recorded from 1:00
@@MyTechFun Ok, found it, thanks :)
Wow dimensions of ABS part are totally off. For me that's a huge no no. That mean they can only print figurines but not mechanical part. I would never use their service after seeing that.

Is it possible to print the threads into the part?
Yes, but they are not accurate and smooth enough. I like to just ask for holes, then cut threads (only it is hard to cut in stainless steel)
Can we make gun parts?
how much for printing that satsana shroud, I want them haha..
You can upload the file and see the estimate cost. But if you are able to print ABS, do it yourself, it is much cheaper.
8:17 ... The threads backwards on that 3D printed bolt?
As mentioned in video, there are two threads, like here: ua-cam.com/video/6aucvcCdOv0/v-deo.html
@@MyTechFun I heard there were 2 threads, but by looking at it, the threads are going in the opposite direction as normal threads. They "tighten" counter clockwise instead of clockwise.
@@deucedeuce1572 Yes, that's the trick, the other is smaller (smaller pitch) so it is not easily visible.
@@MyTechFun I see. thanks.
The metal looks casted and not printed, but I havnet seen a metal 3D printer in use
NylonX and PC > ABS
Now normalize all the values by price 😅
i dislike the trumpf slm printers. they rem8ind me of something. instead someone..
