Beacon, the world’s first ultra-rapid surface scanner for 3D printers. Decision Makers

by Technologies

Picture yourself walking away from your 3D printer as the first layer is being printed. There’s no babysitting your machine, hoping the filament won’t peel off the surface or the nozzle doesn’t get too close to the bed. That’s because of the Beacon sensor by Beacon3D that was mounted on the 3D printer. Seconds before your print, you generate a mesh of your bed surface that’s precise down to the sub-micron level. This is the same mesh that your printer software will use to make micro-adjustments during your print; ensuring the perfect first layer.

A closer look at Orion AM’s Thermal Radiation Fusion  3D Printer Hardware

by Technologies

You may not have heard of Germany-based Orion AM, and that’s likely because they were formed just before the pandemic. Their goal is to produce parts for advanced applications using aerospace-grade polymers, like PEEK and similar high-temperature engineering materials [the company was recently in the news, as its technology is being used for the first known 3D printed parts to ever touch down on the Moon’s surface]`.
