Question

metal powder bed fusion vs. binder jetting
use the information below to answer the question
binder jetting uses a binding agent to glue the particles together. it does not use any
heat in the bin. once the form is removed from the bin, it is placed in an oven to
complete the process. binder jetting is less expensive than metal powder bed fusion,
and the pieces can be much larger.
in contrast, metal powder bed fusion uses heat to fuse metal powder together, but
does not require heat for post processing. there is also a difference in quality and
mechanical property. metal powder bed fusion has excellent tolerances, dimensional
accuracy, and good mechanical properties. binder jetting has a limited range of
mechanical properties for functional purposes.
in terms of mechanical properties, which of the following is
true about binder jetting?
binder jetting does not have any mechanical properties.
binder jetting has limited mechanical properties.
binder jetting has good mechanical properties.
binder jetting has better mechanical properties than metal powder bed
fusion

Explanation:

The text explicitly states that Binder Jetting has a limited range of mechanical properties for functional purposes.

Answer:

Binder Jetting has limited mechanical properties.
