Solid concepts

By Robert FaragoSolid Concepts 3D Printed 1911 DMLS PistolThe Truth About GunsUSA –-(Ammoland.com)-Austin’s Solid Concepts fashioned the firearm from a digital model using a three-dimensional additive process.Instead of removing bits of metal from metal to create gun parts (the standard production process) SC’s printer adds material in successive layers to build up the parts.The computer-controlled manufacturing technique allows for relatively easy, rapid and inexpensive gun making. In the real world, plastic proves the point (e.g. Cody Wilson’s single shot Liberator). But an all-metal 3D printed firearm? Not so much . . .The German EOS Direct Metal 3D Printer that created the all-metal 1911 cost Solid Concepts $600k. Argon and nitrogen gas, cutting and hand tools added another $400k to the bill. The printer disgorged the 1911′s parts in 34 hours using stainless steel, Inconel (extractor, firing pin, hammer, hammer strut, grip safety, main spring guide rod, sear and disconnector) and SLS Nylon 12 Powder (grips). (The main spring, grip screws and bushings, and trigger stirrup are the only pieces that weren’t 3D printed.) The completed gun required about a week-and-a-half (part time) to hand finish and assemble.The Solid Concepts 1911 DMLS may cost a bomb —the prototype is priceless— but it signals a sea-change in the way guns are made. The 3D printing process will make metal firearms prototyping and manufacture simpler, faster, cheaper and better. High-quality gun making will become more available to more people more easily.The trend could democratize gun manufacturing, spelling the end of gun control as

The proprietary ID-Light process reportedly creates 3D models with a rigid outer shell and an inner scaffolding pattern that makes the structure appear and feel solid but will only weigh 1/12th of a traditionally 3D printed model.The ID-Light process was developed by 3D printing company Solid Concepts for both FDM and Stereolithography 3D printers. The hard outer shell has a thickness of about .03 to .04 of an inch and completely surrounds the inner lattice structure. Finished models can be treated with a two-part urethane painting process that produces a smoother surface and higher impact strength and rigidity.Solid Concepts ID-Light SLA (stereolithography) is used for everything from life-sized custom trade-show figures, movie props, promotional figures, detailed architectural models and art installations. Because of the ID-Light process, these models are produced faster than traditionally made SLA models and Solid Concepts says that the surface is very smooth and will take paint extremely well.Recently, creature artist Tom Most used the process to create two stunning 3D sculptures that were on display at Burbank’s 3D Printing Expo 2014. Here is a video where he talks about designing monsters and having his digital sculptures 3D printed:The ID-Light FDM process may not produce as fine a surface detail or take paint as well as ID-Light SLA, however it is ideal for uses that don’t require a high level of finish quality. Prints are still significantly lighter than their traditionally FDM 3D printed counterparts, will print faster and they require much less plastic filament to produce. ID-Light FDM models are also much stronger than ID-Light SLA models and less expensive, making them ideal for large scale prototyped parts.Comparing the weights of four different prop manufacturing methods .Solid Concepts says that they are currently the only company using this process, and that their method for achieving models
