Manufacturing Tungsten Carbide Is Hard. So the Army Research Lab Figured Out How to 3-D Print It.
To reduce the manufacturing costs of making tungsten carbide tools, a team of researchers at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory has figured out how to 3-D print it into the exact size and shape they want, with little to no post-machining required, according to a U.S. patent application first made public on Thursday.
