Metal additive manufacturing is increasingly becoming a reality as it becomes more cost-effective and we move towards full part production, and away from plastic-based prototype prints. The metal AM market and the sales of metal 3D printing systems have increased dramatically over the past years. This is largely fuelled by the increasing demand for metal 3D printing from industrial verticals such as automotive, aerospace and defense.
Azul 3D, a Chicago start-up, announced an exclusive partnership with DuPont Electronics & Imaging. The partnership aims to bring next-generation 3D printing technologies to the forefront of the electronic materials industry.
Structo, the Singapore-based provider of 3D printing solutions focusing on high-speed and dental applications, has appointed Desmond Lim as their new Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Desmond brings over 30 years of experience in executive and board leadership roles across various disciplines, ranging from multinationals to private/venture equity portfolio companies. Following this announcement, Founding CEO Huub van Esbroeck has been named Structo’s new Head of R&D.
Based on the proven Neo800, the compact Neo450 series from UK-based RPS has a 450 × 450 × 400 mm platform and builds prototypes, rapid tooling, and master patterns with optimal surface quality, accuracy and detail. Designed for greater flexibility and versatility, the Neo450 series is available in two models with different performance and functionality depending on customer needs – the Neo450e and the Neo450s.
More and more AM hardware firms are introducing rental services to meet high CapEx issues from purchasing industrial 3D printers upfront. Now BigRep a pioneer in large-format additive manufacturing (AM) technology and solutions, is introducing the STUDIO G2 rental service, focusing on one of its mid-size systems.
Honeywell Aerospace, a leader in aerospace innovation and design, is testing high-temperature alloys from Alloyed for aerospace applications because the materials are not prone to cracking at extreme temperatures. This partnership leverages the Alloys By Design brand, which is a series of metals developed by Oxford University researchers. Honeywell is currently testing Alloyed’s ABD-900AM material to determine its suitability for full production runs.
NCS Technologies (NCS) is partnering with Roboze, a world leader in industrial additive manufacturing systems, specifically specializing in high-performance polymers and composite materials. Roboze signs NCS Technologies to address new markets where safety and reliability are paramount, such as aerospace, industrial and medical devices applications.
Prototal Industries, the largest and most specialized manufacturing company for polymer additive manufacturing and injection molding in the Nordics, is expanding its operations into the UK through the acquisition of 3T Additive Manufacturing Polymers, the polymer AM service alter-ego of EOS partner 3T AM, for metal AM services, both part of AM Global Holding.
Covestro is acquiring the Resins & Functional Materials business (RFM) from Royal DSM. The transaction will include all of DSM’s Resins & Functional Materials businesses, including DSM Additive Manufacturing and all sustainable coating resins related businesses.
