Leading 3D printer manufacturer 3D Systems has expanded its Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP®) service to include VSP Cranial for cranial and craniofacial procedures. VSP Cranial is 510(k) cleared for use in the operating room and enables surgeons to create a virtual pre-surgical plan that can be instrumented with sterilizable, patient-specific 3D printed anatomical models, guides and templates. The use of VSP Cranial on these complex and sensitive procedures enables doctors to plan around and become familiar with a patient’s specific anatomy, and is intended to facilitate the pre-surgical planning process as well as the transfer of that plan to the operating room. By supplying surgeons with informative digital tools and accurate 3D printed surgical guides, VSP Cranial is designed to help doctors deliver improved surgical outcomes.
The global leader in professional DLP solutions is currently looking to fill 20 positions, mainly in for its US-based business.

Fuel3D was again a key highlight at the world’s largest technology event, CES 2017, in Las Vegas earlier this month. The company presented 2 systems which received interest from the worldwide media.
Microsoft acquired Simplygon, a premier developer of automatic 3D data-optimization solutions. This acquisition accelerates our 3D For Everyone vision and strategy, which Microsoft introduced with the Windows 10 Creators Update at our event this past October in New York.
It’s always nice when the generalist media cover 3D printing, in any of its forms, in a positive way. After they stopped blabbering about how 3D printing is dead, generalist media are once again finding an interest for 3D printing and 3D printing companies. It just happened with CNN and house 3D printing – or maybe we should say “city 3D printing” since when the generalist media talks about stuff they do it “extra large”.
Additive Industries is a young, fast developing company. The company has developed a strong pragmatic team mentality in which teams work and experiment together to achieve common goals. AI is not looking to fill several positions in metal 3D printing.
