Triditive introduces new Amcell 8300 and Amcell 1400 3D printers Decision Makers

by Technologies

Industrial-scale 3D manufacturing is here to stay and revolutionize for good the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. As the industry advances, it is necessary to attend to the needs of the customers, such as the ability to print with more than one type of material, the storage, and the management of the pieces that are produced. Thus, during the meeting on additive manufacturing held on October 1 at the Triditive facilities in Asturias, the new Amcell 8300 and Amcell 1400 industrial 3D printers were presented.

Repeatability in AM is Within Reach

Repeatability in AM is Within Reach

Although the company’s headquarters are near Munich, EOS plays at home at the AMTC’s 2021 location in Aachen. The market leader for metal and polymer PBF systems is working hard on constantly improving repeatability in AM and the reproducibility of additive production. That’s the topic that EOS Senior Vice President EMEA Markus Glasser discussed during a panel titled “Reproducibility: Success Factors in Scaling Up”, when, together with Trumpf’s René Kreissl, Head of Business Unit Additive Manufacturing, and representatives from ASTM, TÜV SÜD and Linde, he addressed the current state, progress, and what needs to be accelerated in the future to further improve the goal of process stability.

MakerBot SimplifIes ABS AM Workflow with RapidRinse Support

by Design

MakerBot, a Stratasys company, introduced a new solution that significantly simplifies 3D printing with the new ABS-R polymer material, by effectively streamlining workflow steps and reducing the need for more equipment and additional costs. Developed for high performance on the MakerBot METHOD X and METHOD X Carbon Fiber 3D printers, the new MakerBot RapidRinse and ABS-R materials are suited to print a range of industrial applications to specifications, from manufacturing tools to production parts.

Velo3D sets out to disrupt metal AM as you may know it Decision Makers

by Technologies

When AM, especially metal AM, broke onto the global manufacturing scene and became understood as a technology that could be used to make final parts—not just prototypes—with fewer or no geometric restrictions, engineers around the world began to understand that they had to rethink the way they designed these parts. This concept became known as DfAM, an acronym for Design for Additive Manufacturing. As Velo3D becomes the first new entry in the metal powder bed fusion segment to truly scale, with revenues of nearly $100 million expected in the next fiscal year, and makes it to the NYSE (VLD) after the merger with billionaire Barry Sternlicht’s SPAC company JAWS Spitfire, CEO Benny Buller tells us that we need to move away from “obsolete and abused concepts such as DfAM and workflow automation if we want AM to really live up to its promise”. As disrupting manufacturing paradigms is exactly what AM has been doing since the start, this sounds like something we want to hear more about.

AM Solutions is Launching New S1 Wet System and More at Formenxt

AM Solutions is Launching New S1 Wet System and More at Formenxt

by Technologies

At this year’s Formnext in Frankfurt AM Solutions is presenting not one but three new machines. The new S1 Wet was specifically developed for the removal of residual powder and the surface homogenization and smoothing of metallic 3D components. With the S2 the experts for automated post-processing solutions are presenting the first shot blast machine for treating 3D printed components made from polymers in indexing, continuous flow mode. Of particular interest will be the C2 system that allows the chemical surface smoothing and application of a color dye in one single machine.
