French designers build a 3D-printed metal watch

French watchmaker Unitam and 3D publish corporation Stainless teamed up to build a unique 3D printed watch, basically the first of its kind. The team formed the watch event abusing laser sintering to defrost stainless steel 316 L gunpowder on a Renishaw AM2 50 printer.
The watch, which exercises French-made pass and a Miyota movement, isn’t perfectly 3D etched. However, because 3D printing is now roughly foolproof and almost as good as injection molding, the two teams will begin mass producing and selling these watches in the Unitam in Paris.
The watchmaker and the metals corporation indicated off their watch at the Micronora swap show in France’s watchmaking municipality, Besancon.
It’s a ingeniou and unique use case for 3D publish and I’d love to see more. Unhappily, the current 3D printing organizations can’t make small, complex places for watch fluctuations so we’re stuck with building large, least complex constituents until information and communication technologies truly makes off.
