Engineering firm Renishaw has announced a partnership with simulation expert Simufact with the aim of improving powder-based metal additive manufacturing through simulation and build preparation. Through the collaboration, the companies will integrate Renishaw’s QuantAM build preparation software into Simufact Additive 2020. They will also work to further refine the simulation process for the complex metallurgy of common materials with the goal of improving prediction and compensation of stress and distortion during the print job.
A joint team of researchers from Rensselaer, Northwestern University and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has developed a methodology that could improve the treatment of aggressive glioblastoma brain tumors. The process, which combines medical imaging and bioprinting technologies, can help scientists to better understand the complex structure of the tumor type.
3DP4ME is a US non-profit operating in the Middle East. Its mission is to serve real human needs with practical 3D printing (AM) applications. The first project, titled The Hearing Express, will be located in Jordan and focused on providing hearing aids to young people.
9T Labs, a young startup founded in 2018, has introduced its first product, the Red Series by 9T all-in-one solution for composite series production. The company had scheduled the launch to coincide with JEC, the most important composite show in the world (which however has been postponed due to COVID-19 outbreak concerns): the chance to see it first hand will hopefully come around in May but in the meantime here’s what we know.
