Nano Dimension Targets South Africa in Reseller Partnership with EDA Technologies AM Industry
Nano Dimension, a leading additive electronics provider, has entered into a reseller agreement with EDA Technologies. EDA Technologies is a “concept to complete” electronics solutions company providing professional turnkey electronics product development and manufacturing services since 1997. As part of the agreement, EDA Technologies will purchase Nano Dimension’s DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D Printer, which will be used for demonstrations, as well as for training purposes.
AK Medical’s fleet of GE Additive Arcam EBM printers enables implant production at scale Medical
In China, AK Medical is a leading manufacturer of joint prosthetic devices and, interestingly, it was also the first company to receive approval for the implementation of metal 3D printed implants in China by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). Today, medical device company has scaled up its production of orthopedic implants thanks to a fleet of eight GE Additive Arcam EBM systems.
New Cadillac CELESTIQ features 115 3D printed parts Additive Manufacturing
As anticipated by 3dpbm in July 2022, the Cadillac CELESTIQ, described by GM “as the most technologically advanced Cadillac ever”, features an impressive 115 3D printed parts in the production vehicle, demonstrating GM’s broadest use of this process. Additively manufactured parts include the steering wheel center, which is the largest metal part GM has printed in production, combining the show surface and the structural B-side of the part. Another 3D printed part is the seat belt adjustable guide loop, which is GM’s first safety-related 3D printed part.
Bio-inspired 3D printed cement could be used for earthquake resistant structures Construction 3D Printing
Typically cracks or fissures in concrete are a sure sign that a structure is compromised or weakened. A team of researchers from Purdue University, however, are turning that idea on its head with the development of 3D printed cement structures that are actually made stronger by the material’s inherent weaknesses, especially during moments of extreme stress, like in a wildfire or earthquake.
Rein van der Mast releases new Meteor 3D printed fountain pen Consumer Products
Dutch designer and technologist Rein van der Mast has been disrupting how fountain pens are made. Instead of relying on proven technology, in 2013 he was the first to 3D print a titanium fountain pen, followed, in 2016, by the nibs. Some amazing models followed: the very unique Spica Virginis (also available in solid gold) and, progressively more widely available models, such as the Type One. The latest addition to van der Mast’s collection is Meteor, an exclusive multi-metal fountain pen in which arts and crafts of the past go hand in hand with manufacturing technologies of the future.

3D micro-architected implants optimize orthopedics Medical
As we know by now, additive manufacturing technology has been around for a while and is evolving every day, but design is still the key to unlocking the full potential of this technology. Considering this, researchers at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) have published their recent work on the optimal design of 3D micro-architected implants. In this work, the researchers push the boundaries of the optimal design of orthopedic implants. The optimized micro-architected implants, which are suitable for additive manufacturing, result in a significant increase in performance compared to a conventional solid implant design.
