News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Farsoon has established a new subsidiary in Germany, expanding Farsoon operations to Europe. As of April 01, Dirk Simon (currently BASF New Business GmbH) is nominated as the Managing Director of Farsoon Europe GmbH and will become a member of Farsoon’s global management team.
BIOLASE had traditionally made parts such as the clip shown below using urethane casting. This traditional manufacturing method is used to make low-volume urethane polymer parts. Unlike injection molding, urethane casting uses silicone molds and does not require hard tooling. However, the turnaround time for similar urethane cast parts typically can be five to eight weeks, and, although cheaper than injection molding, the parts are still expensive to make and iterate.
Hangzhou based Dedibot presented a functional Drone 3D printer at the recent TCT Asia. The innovative concept leverages the company’s OAM (Open-ended Additive Manufacturing) technology which uses multiple drones for 3D printing of large structures on Earth as well as in Space and under the sea.
Marco Parnasi, an architect and designer from Florence, Italy, won the 3D Printing Light Contest organized by Italian 3D printer manufacturer WASP and the OpenDot makerspace. His Aureal Twist design will be 3D printed using a large format 3MT system from WASP. The 3D printing will take place during the 999 event, from March 2-4 at the Triennale Design Museum in Milan.

In 2017, 3D printing went mainstream in the dental industry. A number of high profile business ventures and acquisitions have continued to propel dental applications utilizing 3D printing technologies firmly into the sights of the largest dental services and solutions providers in the world. As the additive industry continues to transition, as a whole, towards manufacturing applications, the growth path for most existing polymer print technologies has faltered somewhat by historical comparison. This has allowed for well established, high value applications in healthcare to really shine and earn major focus of stakeholders in the industry.
