News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
The average heart pumps 100,000 times a day and rarely gets a break. When the heart breaks down, so does our body. That’s why it’s important as ever that we know the right methods and have the right tools to treat the heart when it fails. 3D printing helps develop medical devices to treat heart disease and allows companies, like Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. (CSI360), to continually innovate their designs.
In 2015 Fiat Chrysler Auto (FCA) Group, which also includes the stylish brand Alfa Romeo, went public with the Alfa Giulia 3D printed front grid project, revealing how intensive its use of AM has been for prototyping applications. Over the past two years, the company has been working to address the challenges of implementing both metal and polymer AM in the production of actual automotive end-use parts.

At Christmas 2016, Sculpto launched a polar 3D printer that was completely different from other desktop 3D printers. After only a short period of time, it became one of the best-selling 3D printers in all of Denmark. Now the Danish company developed their 3D printer further and is about to launch the new Sculpto+!
Food 3D printing is one of the strangest verticals in 3D printing. There are plenty of possible experimental applications and it is definitely something that a large number of people are interested in, however progress in this area has been slower than in segments – such a bioprinting or silicone and ceramics 3D printing – which also can use the same basic pneumatic extrusion 3D printing process. A Chinese company called Shiyin Tech has now taken a few more steps in the right direction with its new user-friendly Sweetin food 3D printer.
