SPEE3D’s innovative LightSPEE3D machine proved that 3D metal printing could be fast and cheap. The development of the large format WarpSPEE3D printer proves that it can also be extra large. Targeted towards production, WarpSPEE3D performs a different role to the smaller LightSPEE3D model. While lightSPEE3D is ideal for materials experimentation, process development and printing small parts, WarpSPEE3D is able to produce industrial components in a matter of hours that could take 6-12 months using traditional casting methods.
Turkish aerospace company TUSAŞ Engine Industries, Inc. (TEI) is ramping up its metal additive capacity with the investment in two M LINE Factory and two M2 cusing 3D printers from GE Additive. The investment in GE Additive’s direct metal laser melting (DMLM) systems was announced today at the Paris Air Show.
CyBe Construction, a Dutch specialist in concrete 3D printing, has been selected as the technology provider for a 3D printed house project in the UAE. The house will be built as part of the Sharjah Research, Technology and Innovation Park (SRTI Park) initiative which aims to 3D print a series of buildings in the area with the goal of transforming the city of Sharjah into an architectural hub.
June is the aerospace additive manufacturing month this year, not just at 3dpbm but also all over the world thanks to the upcoming International Paris Air Show – SIAE 2019 – in Le Bourget. During the next two weeks, as part of our AM Focus on aerospace applications, we will take you to see the latest news at the Paris Space and Aerospace Show and then we will welcome you to our exclusive webinar with the participation of aerospace additive manufacturing experts from leading stakeholders in the AM industry.
SLM®500 quad-laser machines have been selected by Rolls-Royce to help develop its Additive Layer Manufacturing capability. The machines will play an important role in helping Rolls-Royce in the competitive adoption of additive layer manufacturing for aerospace components.
The Paris Air Show, aka SIAE 2019, aka Salon Le Bourget, is opening today for its 53rd edition, the most AM-centric in the century-long history of the event. We will be bringing you video and photo reportages from all AM activity at Salon Le Bourget over the next few days. In the meantime, if you are attending, here are is some key info you should know.
Oerlikon AM and MT Aerospace are partnering to accelerate the use of additive parts in the aerospace and defense industries. The partnership aims to bring efficiency and cost savings to the aerospace and defense market by providing end-to-end solutions to customers.
Boom Supersonic, the Colorado company building history’s fastest supersonic airliner, signed a seven-year agreement extension with Stratasys. The companies are further accelerating the adoption of additive manufacturing for 3D printed flight hardware using the Stratasys F900 3D Printer with the Aircraft Interiors Solution (AIS) package.
Carpenter Technology Corporation, which is emerging as a market leading AM metal powder supplier, and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) signed a collaboration to produce additively manufactured components for a serial production commercial aircraft.
