3MF Consortium releases first standardized 3D Beam Lattice Extension 3D Visualization

by Design

The 3MF Consortium (3MF) ratified and released its Beam Lattice Specification Extension to its 3MF Core Specification today. The 3MF Beam Lattice extension is a new method for storing and transferring lattice-type geometry information. By providing support for beam lattices, 3MF solves a significant interoperability issue for the additive manufacturing industry and provides an elegant solution to a problem that is not easily addressed in other file formats. The benefits of using 3MF’s Beam Lattice Extension in additive manufacturing are significant and broad and include improved design flexibility, lower material costs and reduced production time.

Polygonica Present a New Hole Filling Feature for 3D Scanning 3D Scanning Sevices

by Design

MachineWorks Ltd, creator of the Polygonica Polygonal Modelling Software Engine, is introducing new solutions for solving difficult 3D scanning problems such as complex hole filling in a point cloud of the 3D object. 3D scanners often produce 3D models with missing regions or with holes. Polygonica’s latest function addresses hole filling by recapturing the original geometry of the 3D data thanks to clever geometry manipulation.

“Man of Steel” Ivano Corsini Unleashes Steel 3D Printing with New 3D4Steel Solution 3D Printer Hardware

by Technologies

Ivano Corsini founded 3D4STEEL together with business partner Gabriele Carloni, with the goal of making steel 3D printing truly accessible to all. For this reason, the company chose to focus specifically on the most used metal, steel and the wide family of steel alloys. Not only does 3D4STEEL provide a range of metal 3D printers specifically optimized for steel, but it also intends to provide customers with a fully customized service solution. This comprehensive plan is based on its open, highly optimized AM systems for production and 3D4YOU, a tailor-made consultancy and support program that will make implementing 3D printing much smoother than it is today.
