News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
The founders of Marketiger (Maikel de Wit) and Additive Center (Maarten van Dijk) presented AMcubator, a brand new joint venture to accelerate the development of high volume 3D printed products. Joint efforts of launching partners Royal DSM, Hexagon, AM-Flow and AM Solutions – a brand of the Rösler Group will result in true scalable applications in Additive Manufacturing.
With its numerous technical features, the latest generation of the S1 post-processing system from AM Solutions – 3D post processing technology is setting new standards for de-powdering and cleaning of 3D printed components. These include the swivel-mounted rotary basket for ergonomic loading/unloading and prevention of dirt pickup, swivel-mounted blast nozzles preventing re-contamination and a design that is in complete compliance with ATEX standards. Of course, the gentle and, at the same time, intensive processing, the easy and safe change of blast media and the easy switch from automatic to manual operation ensure efficient and consistent high-quality processing results.
Joe Biden clearly endorsed renewable energies during the second presidential debate, which took place on the evening of October 22, 2020. The specific renewable energies that have yet to be explored at a widespread industrial scale are biomass, solar and wind. Biden argued for a move away from fossil fuels while adopting wind and solar energy as sustainable replacements. Such a policy does not, of course, spell overnight doom for the oil industry; it does, however, mean that renewable energy companies might seek to ramp up production in the coming years if Biden gets elected. Increasing production, particularly in emerging solar and wind production, is territory rife for additive manufacturing.
It’s no longer big news that the ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 is creating sanitary challenges like never seen before. At this point, and without a vaccine or effective treatment, the use of masks and other types of personal protective equipment (PPE), is the best way to limit the spread of the virus circulation.
Stratasys, an industry leader in the additive manufacturing space, announced a tour through major American tour through the industrial midwest to promote its products and AM more generally.
