Epson Launches Industrial 3D Printer for Commonly Available Materials Decision Makers

Seiko Epson Corporation has developed an industrial 3D printer that can use commonly available third-party materials to produce strong, accurate industrial parts of various sizes and functions. 3D printers with these features will have uses in a far wider range of applications, including in the production of parts for final products, and will enable users to mass-customize their goods in support of small-batch production.

Markforged FY 2021 revenue grows by 27%, to $91.2 million Money & Funding

Markforged Holding Corporation reported that its revenues increased 27%, to $91.2 million, in FY 2021, from $71.9 million in 2020. Gross profit grew 26%, to $52.9 million, in 2021 from $41.9 million in 2020 and gross margin was 58% in 2021, consistent with 2020. However net loss from operations also grew during the Markforged FY 2021, to $61.0 million (compared to a net loss from operations of $17.7 million in the year prior). Quarterly (Q4) revenues also grew. The result is even more significant as the company generated almost as much revenue as its competitor Dekstop Metal did after acquiring two large AM companies (and several smaller ones).

Bioprinting tissues, one cell at a time, with Biopixlar AER 3D Printer Hardware

When the larger public imagines bioprinting they tend to imagine a machine that builds cellular tissues adding one cell after the other. Generally, that’s not the case, as most technologies leverage bioinks and hydrogels to create scaffolds and deposit the cellular materials. Fluicell’s microfluidic bioprinting technology first delivered single-cell printing capabilities with the original Biopixlar platform in 2019. Now, with the new Biopixlar AER, these capabilities become accessible to a much broader target of users. We exclusively caught up with Victoire Viannay, CEO of Fluicell, to learn more about this technology and the possibilities it opens for new applications.

3D printed heat exchangers push E-Stall Formula Student racecar Additive Manufacturing

Using Additive Manufacturing technology, the Formula Student Racing Team E-Stall of the University of Applied Sciences Esslingen, Germany, improved cooling of the electric drivetrain and power electronics. Printed with the highest accuracy on the EP-M260 by Eplus3D, the aluminum-made parts were able to easily dissipate the generated heat and therefore improve the performance of the racecar.

Velo3D FY 2021 revenues top $27 million, growing 45% YoY Money & Funding

Velo3D, Inc. (NYSE: VLD), a leading additive manufacturing technology company for mission-critical metal parts, closed FY 2021, the first full year since going public, with revenues for $27 million, growing 45%, and exceeding expectations. Among other highlights the company shipped the first Sapphire XC system to an aerospace customer in Q421 and achieved the 2021 shipments goal of 23 systems (77% year over year unit growth). Velo3D FY 2021 also saw 34 systems booked in 2021 (versus a goal of 24) and a significant backlog for 2022 – 23 Sapphire systems (of which 18 Sapphire XC)
