News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
WAZP, a global end-to-end supply chain for Additive Manufacturing has created a 3D printing solutions-focused platform called Spark. The platform will assist businesses trying to adopt and reap the benefits of additive manufacturing when producing products and components.
After conducting an in-depth study of the segment between Q4 2020 and Q1 2021, 3dpbm Research is ready to release its new, sector-defining report and forecast on the metal additive manufacturing market. The report, titled Metal AM Market Opportunities and Trends 2020-2030, was created by leveraging 3dpbm’s index of over 5,500 verified AM companies, ongoing daily coverage of the AM industry via 3D Printing Media Network, and a major survey and study conducted of 296 companies active in the metal AM core segments of hardware, materials and services.
Orbital Composites has shipped its robotic 3D printer to the University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD). Orbital Composites’ commercially available Orbital S AM platform, will assist UMD in their polymer and composite additive manufacturing research, under the guidance of Dr. Gireesh Menta, professor of Mechanical Engineering at UMD. This marks a milestone for both parties as education about robotic 3D printing is gaining prominence in advanced manufacturing. UMD is expanding its teaching and research capabilities in large-scale, out-of-plane robotic 3D printing of thermoplastic polymers, by receiving its first robotic 3D printer. For Orbital, this is also their first commercial shipment of a turnkey robotic 3D printer.
As the AM wave continues to grow in Japan, Tokyo-based JEOL released its new JAM-5200EBM electron beam melting metal AM system. The company, which specializes in scientific metrology systems (including electron microscopes) leveraged its know-how of electron microscopes and electron beam lithography systems for semiconductor manufacturing, to develop a new EBM system with higher power, higher density and higher speed.
Nexa3D, launched its NXD200, a new dental lab 3D printer. NXD200 3D printer features patented LSPc technology that combines a large build area, print uniformity, advanced process algorithms, modular design for on-site automation, and intelligent optimization. The NXD200 is available with all of Keystone’s KeyPrint resins, including KeySplint Soft which delivers a combination of strength to protect teeth and flexibility for improved patient comfort, all with a transparent and aesthetic appearance.
For agile businesses, development time and time to market are critical when developing products. Prototyping and manufacture using injection molding can be expensive, rigid and slow when it comes to releasing product ranges; so naturally, it is better to start with solutions that are more adaptive and cost-effective.
