Hello everyone and welcome back to the first 3dpbm Pulse Podcast of 2023, the first under our new name: VoxelMatters Podcast. Today we speak with Ido Eylon, CEO of 3DM Digital Manufacturing, about a technology that is going to change the way polymer laser powder bed fusion – the process commonly known as SLS – for the better and forever.
As a supplier to General Motors, TEI is using the world’s largest 3D sand printer to produce cast cores for the series production of large-format, weight-saving structural components for the Cadillac CELESTIQ. We had anticipated that the new GM model would have parts made from 3D printed sand tooling, now we also know which technology is going to be used. Each VX4000 prints hundreds of inner cores for several vehicle sets in just one night: making short delivery times for weight and design-optimized components possible
Visser Precision, a contract manufacturer serving major industries from the racetrack to outer space, has purchased and received two Velo3D Sapphire printers – expanding its 3D printing capabilities for its aerospace customers. One of the printers is the first Sapphire printer calibrated for Haynes 214 (UNS N07214), a nickel-based superalloy that is now available as a powder option for all Velo3D customers. The other Sapphire printer is calibrated for Inconel 718, which is commonly used in many aerospace and industrial applications for its high strength and corrosion resistance.
3D Systems’ ProJet MJP 2500W Plus is now available for purchase and immediate shipping. The new solution is specifically designed to produce complex, high-quality, pure wax 3D printed jewelry patterns with speed and precision for use in the lost wax casting process. Engineered specifically to meet the unique requirements of the jewelry industry, the ProJet MJP 2500W Plus can produce high-resolution, 100% wax casting patterns, in hours. This enables the quick and cost-effective creation, iteration, and production of all jewelry styles, including the most complex geometries.
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA)’s R&D center has registered a new patent for an adhesive device for 3D printers that automatically distributes adhesive material on the printing plate – ensuring that the printed material sticks adequately. This is the seventh patent registered by the R&D center.
Picture yourself walking away from your 3D printer as the first layer is being printed. There’s no babysitting your machine, hoping the filament won’t peel off the surface or the nozzle doesn’t get too close to the bed. That’s because of the Beacon sensor by Beacon3D that was mounted on the 3D printer. Seconds before your print, you generate a mesh of your bed surface that’s precise down to the sub-micron level. This is the same mesh that your printer software will use to make micro-adjustments during your print; ensuring the perfect first layer.
You may not have heard of Germany-based Orion AM, and that’s likely because they were formed just before the pandemic. Their goal is to produce parts for advanced applications using aerospace-grade polymers, like PEEK and similar high-temperature engineering materials [the company was recently in the news, as its technology is being used for the first known 3D printed parts to ever touch down on the Moon’s surface]`.
