Voxeljet VX4000 used to 3D print cores for Cadillac CELESTIQ Decision Makers

by Technologies

As a supplier to General Motors, TEI is using the world’s largest 3D sand printer to produce cast cores for the series production of large-format, weight-saving structural components for the Cadillac CELESTIQ. We had anticipated that the new GM model would have parts made from 3D printed sand tooling, now we also know which technology is going to be used. Each VX4000 prints hundreds of inner cores for several vehicle sets in just one night: making short delivery times for weight and design-optimized components possible

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.
