3D Printed Metal vs CNC Machined - How Strong?

► PCBWay for specialist 3D printing and CNC machining: https://www.pcbway.com/rapid-prototyp...

How does 3D printed metal compare to CNC machined metal? Or what about carbon fibre nylon? Let's find out! The one tonne Print Buster 3000 test rig is back in action to answer more questions about the strength of 3D prints. This time around, we start with a number of PLA FDM prints before looking at Onyx FR carbon FDM and then on to Sintered Laser Melting (SLM) 3D printed metals and finally CNC'd metals. Which will be strongest, and how strong will it be?
