Sinterit Develop SLS 3D Printed Glasses With AR Consumer Products

New technologies are the field where evolution and changes are the most noticeable. And such are the 3D systems of augmented reality – the devices are constantly upgraded to guarantee the highest image quality. The combination of virtual 3D reality and non-virtual reality is the result of collaboration of Sinterit and Professor Rigo Herold – a German researcher working on developing AR technology as well as on the design of data glasses. Glasses printed in SLS 3D technology allow for precise assembly of components and maximum comfort of using the equipment.

Can MES Software Transform 3D Printing Into a True Production Technology? Additive Manufacturing

In the world of advanced manufacturing, the term MES to describe software based Manufacturing Execution Systems is already fairly common. However, it is only now beginning to be introduced to AM, leading us to coin a new “AMES” (Additive Manufacturing Execution Systems) acronym. This is occurring now because only recently did AM start to become a true batch and potentially even a mass manufacturing technology.

3DSIM launches exaSIMTM ULTIMATE for Thermal Strain Prediction Additive Manufacturing

3DSIM, a company leading in the development of functional and efficient simulation software focused on predicting the AM process, launched exaSIMTM ULTIMATE, completing the exaSIM process simulation portfolio. The new software adds full part Thermal Strain predictions (which is a unique feature) to Assumed Uniform and Scan Pattern strain, enabling engineers to leverage detailed additive manufacturing (AM) science to accurately predict part dimensions, to automatically correct for distortion and optimize supports. The software also enables users to visualize the effects of part orientation, process parameters and machine differences on AM-produced parts.
