by Medical

uLab Systems, a digital dental company based in California (CA), has announced a commercial milestone for its U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared dental aligner planning software, which allows for the same-day 3D printing of clear orthodontic appliances. The company has revealed that it has had over 13,000 cases planned with its “chairside” dental movement planning software, since launching a pilot program to receive market feedback for it in the summer of 2018.

How 3D Printing is Helping GE Research Turn Air into Water

by Environment

Water scarcity is a major global problem. More than 1.1 billion people do not have access to the liquid that sustains life, while nearly 3 billion experience water scarcity at some point (WWF). In an effort to combat this reality—which has the potential to worsen dramatically due to the climate crisis—GE Research is teaming up with the University of California at Berkeley, University of Chicago and University of South Alabama to develop a 3D printed device that can turn air into safe drinking water.

Dutch company CyBe is known in the AM construction world for its robotic 3D printing platform and special MORTAR material. We’ve followed the company in recent years, as it has worked on construction 3D printing projects around the world, including in New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates and Italy. And while the company has been forthcoming about its ABB-based technology, the details of its MORTAR construction material have been fully under wraps. That is, until now.

Racing with Sauber into the Future of Additive Production

Racing with Sauber into the Future of Additive Production

by Automotive

Swiss motorsport company Sauber is a historic team in the Formula 1 circuit, where it has been competing since 1993. The intensive implementation of AM at Sauber since the early 2000s is not the only reason why the company is now playing such a relevant role in the AM industry: Sauber Engineering was established to leverage the team’s unique engineering know-how and provide design and production services using Additive Industries’ MetalFAB1 metal 3D printers. Last year this led to the production of over 22,000 metal laser PBF printed parts; and these are just the start.
