Luxexcel and IFB Solutions Sign contract for the First Ophthalmic 3D Print Platform Consumer Products

Luxexcel and IFB Solutions have signed a contract for the first 3D print platform for ophthalmic lenses. The platform will be integrated into IFB’s optical operations in Winston-Salem, N.C. which is one of the top 10 independent labs in the country. The Luxexcel platform consists of industrial grade optical 3D-printers, lens-design software and workflow integration tools which enable customers like IFB Solutions to manufacture 3D printed ophthalmic quality lenses that meet all industry standards. The technology is initially focusing on difficult-to-manufacture medical specialty lenses.

Harvard researchers manufacture flexible and wearable electronics by hybrid 3D printing 3D Printing Processes

A new hybrid 3D printing technique developed at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University, Harvard’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and the Air Force Research Laboratory combines stretchable conductive inks and electronic components into flexible, durable wearable electronics and devices that move with the body and offer increased programmability. This research was supported by the Wyss Institute, Harvard SEAS, AFRL and GETTYLAB.
