Constructed of high - grade stainless steel components, our slicers require little to no maintenance and no tools to break down for high pressure washing. (ftiinc.org)
And stainless steel components replaced any made of tin or zinc, as these metals can grow slender crystalline «whiskers» that might break off and cause damage. (newscientist.com)
Wang said the methodology could open the floodgates to widespread 3D printing of such stainless steel components, particularly in the aerospace, automotive and oil and gas industries, where strong and tough materials are needed to tolerate extreme force in harsh environments. (llnl.gov)
