DyeMansion Expands Powershot Portfolio

DyeMansion Expands Powershot Portfolio

DyeMansion will launch an expansion of its Powershot portfolio with an online event hosted from its Munich headquarters. DyeMansion will bring the physical live experience of their new Powershot systems to you as close as possible. In addition to the reveal and a live demo, there will be several deep dive tech talks and statements from partners like Siemens. DyeMansion is looking forward to every participant and will offer the opportunity to book individual “Powershot Live Experience Tours” onsite their locations in Planegg-Munich, Germany and Austin, Texas after the event.

3D Systems to introduce High Speed Fusion extrusion 3D printer 3D Printer Hardware

Stratasys is buying an Industrial SLA system manufacturer? 3D Systems answers by introducing an industrial filament extrusion 3D printer: a novel High Speed Fusion (HSF) industrial 3D printer platform and material portfolio. Based on material extrusion technology and developed in a collaboration with Jabil Inc, this unique HSF family of products, including the Roadrunner 3D printer, is expected to provide the best economics of any high throughput industrial fused-filament offering in the market today. Through the use of advanced electric motion control, this unique system operates at speeds and precision levels well beyond current state-of-the-art production platforms. With temperature capability and available build areas greater than those of competing systems, combined with an outstanding materials portfolio, the Roadrunner system is designed to address the most demanding aerospace and advanced automotive applications. The result is not only unique application solutions but compelling manufacturing economics driven by the size, speed, and precision of this new technology platform.

Dyslexic Children’s Glasses Printed Using HP MJF Tech

Atol les Opticiens, a French optical company, is additively manufacturing glasses with HP’s multi jet fusion technology to provide cost-effective options for dyslexic children. The Lexilens smart glasses bring two trends together: the development of connected solutions designed to improve the lives of people with learning difficulties; and technical advances in additive manufacturing.

Heraeus Demonstrates Amorphous Metals for AM of Medical Implants

Heraeus Demonstrates Amorphous Metals for AM of Medical Implants

Until now, implants and prostheses have mostly been made of steel or titanium. This has disadvantages as these materials do not always adapt optimally to patients and their bones. They can break and require repeat operations. Recent research by Heraeus Amloy together with the University of Graz is on the verge of a breakthrough, demonstrating that amorphous metals can be used to additively manufacture medical implants.

PIX Uses WAAM to Simplify Car Manufacturing

PIX Uses WAAM to Simplify Car Manufacturing

In 2019, PIX turned to WAAM (wire arc additive manufacturing), then an emerging AM technology that used a combination of an electric arc as heat source and a metal wire as feedstock. The result chassis was much lighter and easier to produce, thus reducing costs for PIX, whose goal is to provide cities with sustainable autonomous mobility.
