Leading industrial 3D printer manufacturer 3D Systems Corporation will embed the ThingWorx Platform from PTC into its 3D printers, enabling intelligent monitoring and remote service and maintenance.
The name “Fuse1” seems to imply that a fusion process will be involved in the new hardware that Formlabs will be presenting at the upcoming Digital Factory event to be held at the MIT Media Lab next June 5th. This would exclude an upgraded and possible larger SLA system as it would also exclude an updated “Farm” network system.
After a long incubation, Impossible-Objects finally showed the first system based on its new composite additive manufacturing technology (CBAM). The 3D printer uses a process different from any other current AM technologies and makes functional, fiber-reinforced parts at production speeds scaling to minutes or seconds. CBAM works with the widest range of materials, such as fiber fabrics including carbon, glass and Kevlar, and polymers including polyamides and PEEK. Its goal is to replace conventional manufacturing techniques while offering greater geometric complexity.
