Taiwan-based 3D printer manufacturer Infinity 3DP is partnering with Slice Engineering, a US creator of high-end 3D components, to solve the problem of inferior parts wearing out due to heat in extrusion 3D printing processes.
The specific component bringing the companies together is the hotend, which melts the material and pushes it through a nozzle.
