ViscoTec Creates Two-Component 3D Printer Head for Liquids 3D Printer Hardware

by Technologies

ViscoTec makes it possible to print two-component liquids and pastes with maximum and consistent precision over the entire printing process: 3D printers have long been used in the industrial environment and are becoming even more interesting and lucrative for additive production thanks to further developments and increasing professionalism. For producing three-dimensional objects, thermoplastics, ceramics or metals are usually used. But in addition to the classical materials in 3D printing, viscous fluids and pastes based on a two-component polymer are increasingly used. These include, for example, silicones, epoxy resins, polyurethanes, acrylates and polyester resins.

AM solutions for payload by Thales Alenia Space help satellite industry take off 3D Printing Events

by Aerospace

Sending satellites into orbit is both expensive and complex. Breaking free of Earth’s orbit is costly and the extreme conditions of space can be difficult to endure. This means that satellite parts need to be both very light and very strong. The advantages of additive manufacturing for space applications are evident and the entire space industry is excited about the possibilities that 3D printing can offer. Some of the latest solutions developed available in the market for payload components will be presented at IN(3D)USTRY next October 3-5 at Fira de Barcelona.

Jay Leno Test Drives Divergent Blade, the Most 3D Printed Supercar Yet (Video) Additive Manufacturing

by Automotive

US talk show host, car lover and 3D printing enthusiast Jay Leno recently got the chance to get a close look and even test drive the Divergent Blade, the most 3D printed supercar ever built. Kevin Czinger, Founder & CEO of Divergent 3D, stopped by the garage to show Jay his 700 horsepower 3D printed ride. Thanks to Alex Polli from our Italian 3D printing news website Replicatore.it, for the tip!
