DWS Shows Clarity of Vision with XCELL Integrated Production Unit and Global Strategy 3D Printer Hardware

by Technologies

The 3D printing industry is transitioning toward automated production. While this trend has been evident for the past few years, the latest formnext trade show has made it even clearer, with a huge focus post-production, materials, and part handling units filling the halls to support faster and more productive 3D printers. Few companies have expressed this vision as clearly as DWS, with its new, all-in-one XCELL system.

In an interesting case study, Formlabs reported on how Aaron Sims, founder and president of Aaron Sims Creative (ASC), an up-and-coming visual effects (VFX) and design studio in Burbank (alongside large, established companies like Weta and ILM) use a Form2 3D printer to bring to life the monster in season one of hit TV series Stranger Things. Apparently he is not the only one 3D printing a demogorgon.. or a demodog.

TuPOD Windform XT 2.0 3D Printed TubeSat Deployer Successfully Completes Mission Aerospace

by Aerospace

Small satellites provide a responsive alternative to larger, more expensive satellites. As demand grows, engineers must adapt these “nanosatellites” or CubeSats to provide new achievements and goals. One of these achievements is deploying a TubeSat from the International Space Station (ISS). TubeSats are cylindrical and are not compatible with normal CubeSats deployer platform (P-POD) on the ISS. Thus, an innovative nano-satellite, TuPOD (Tubesat-POD), was developed to address the challenge.
