There are so many metal and plastic materials available for CNC machining, which makes it tricky to know which to choose for your application. Materials partly dictate the final cost and quality of your parts, so you want to be as informed as possible.
And while it's handy to have access to detailed comparisons of all the major materials available on Protolabs Network, it's optimal to have a single resource for making quick, smart comparisons.
