News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
As anticipated in our overview of the Rapid event in Pittsburgh, Oxford Performance Materials (OPM), a leader in advanced materials science and high performance additive manufacturing (HPAM) officially launched of nickel-plated OXFAB–Ni, offering 3D-printed PEKK-based parts that replace high performance aluminum alloys for aerospace and industrial applications.
FATHOM, an advanced manufacturer with an expertise in 3D printing and additive manufacturing, signed a partner agreement with new entry metal AM OEM Desktop Metal. FATHOM will adopt DM’s innovative metal AM approach as part of its in-house advanced manufacturing solutions and managed services to further develop its focus on changing the way products are designed and manufactured.
With the recent launches of the Telkom 3S, SGDC and KOREASAT-7 satellites, plus satellites in the Iridium Next constellation, Thales Alenia Space has now sent into orbit 79 metal parts made by additive manufacturing (3D printing) and 350 polymer tube supports for chemical propulsion systems.

Simufact Engineering, an MSC Software company, has released Simufact Additive 2, a new version of its simulation solution for metal-based additive manufacturing. The software provides a series of capabilities covering powder bed fusion processes that deliver more certainty in achieving a reliable additive manufacturing process for high quality parts.
Additive Industries has received a follow-on order from its customer Kaak Group. The order of a second MetalFAB1 system, this time a 5-module 4-laser production series system within 9 months after the installation of the first system, confirms the performance of the MetalFAB1 system. Kaak, the market leading manufacturer of industrial bakery systems will further increase its metal additive manufacturing capacity since demand for 3D printed components for internal use is substantial. This month their first MetalFAB1 system is upgraded to a 4-laser version to double the speed and increase the capacity but they expect this will not be sufficient to keep up with the growing number of parts for their bakery systems.
