3D Systems has completed its strategic initiative to insource the manufacturing of two more strategic printer platforms. The company transferred this activity from two electronics manufacturing services (EMS) partners, with which 3D Systems maintains commercial relationships to expand the adoption of these platforms globally. As a result of insourcing, the company now controls the entire manufacturing process from design to production – leveraging its deep technical and application expertise to deliver products of superior quality and innovation to its customers. Additionally, with this increased level of manufacturing process control, 3D Systems has matched or improved production quality and reduced lead times to meet customer demand. This includes the ability to be nimble and adapt solutions to meet customers’ unique needs with unmatched additive manufacturing capabilities and printing process customization options.

re:3D has recently included UltiMachine’s ArchiMajor 32bit control board and transition to Klipper firmware with the launch of Gigabot 4, Terabot 4, GigabotX 2, and TerabotX 2.

Dyze Design knows the ins and outs of extrusion-based 3D printing better than most. The Canadian company has nearly a decade of experience manufacturing high-performance extrusion systems and other accessories for professional and industrial 3D printers, and provides its products to over 25 3D printer brands, including Roboze, Aon3D, Trideo, Blackbelt, and Cincinnati. The depth of its knowledge also means that Dyze Design understands the pain points of 3D printing and is uniquely positioned to solve them. It’s upcoming product, Orthus, addresses an all too common issue in FFF 3D printing: filament monitoring.

Optomec is introducing a new LENS Laser Deposition Head (LDH 3.X), with a variable optics system that can create three discreet focused spot sizes to accommodate changes in laser power. The LDH 3.X supports a wide range of laser powers from 500 W to 3 kW to ensure optimal DED processing across a range of parts and applications.

If you are using 3D printers indoor on the manufacturing floor, in an R&D facility, in schools, maker spaces or offices where people are present, you – and all those around you – probably could benefit from reducing your 3D printer’s toxic emissions by using a new industry grade cabinet from Copenhagen-based Owlson.
