[Developing story] Vader acquisition confirmed as Xerox wants a share of the $8 billion AM market AM Industry

by Technologies

Xerox is the company whose copying machines business was so successful that its brand became a synonym for the family of products it made and sold. Since the company was quite active in the 3D printing patent arena, many may have thought it could have done the same for 3D printers. However, Xerox has never made a clear move into 3D printing, at least not like HP and Xaar have done. Until now that is. At the Investor’s Day 2019 conference taking place in New York, Xerox announced several new products in the 3D printing segment along with the acquisition of metal 3D printing startup Vader.

Arthur Mamou-Mani and COS team up for 3D printed Salone del Mobile installation Consumer Products

by Design

Milan has become something of a 3D printing design hub in recent years, largely thanks to the occurrence of prestigious events such as the Salone del Mobile, a furniture expo held every Spring in Italy’s capital of fashion and design. Last year, for instance, the Salone del Mobile’s showstopper was a 3D printed house located in Milan’s central square, Piazza Cesare Beccaria—which 3DPBM founder Davide Sher had the chance to see firsthand.

Formlabs White Papers to maximize benefits of 3D printing in production Marketing and Content

by Technologies

Figuring out how to best implement 3D printing into an established production workflow can be tricky. In many cases, a trial & error approach can prove costly and fail to bring the desired results. Fortunately, there is now sufficient literature available that can help to avoid mistakes and establish a clear ROI strategy right from the start. Few companies have done more in this regard than Formlabs did by introducing a reliable, high-quality stereolithographic (SLA) technology that just about any business can easily afford.

by Technologies

Since its founding in 2013, Carbon has set out to become a leader in polymer 3D printing. So far, the company seems to be on a steadily upwards path—having introduced a breakthrough resin production process known as CLIP and Digital Light Synthesis platforms, which have been adopted by high profile companies such as Adidas and Ford. Today, the company expands its hardware offering with the launch of the L1 3D printer.
