DSM and partners present digital platform for I AM Tomorrow Challenge AM Software

by Design

In June 2019, global sciences company Royal DSM launched the I AM Tomorrow Challenge, a collaborative effort aimed at addressing and filling gaps in the AM value chain. At the time, DSM and its partners Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence and Ultimaker invited startups from around the world to apply for an accelerator program. Six startups, selected from a pool of 74, have recently teamed up to co-develop a digital additive manufacturing workflow.

MX3D and Altair redesign and 3D print optimized robotic arm AM Software

by Design

Amsterdam-based MX3D, a specialist in robotic metal 3D printing (many will know of its famous canal bridge project), teamed up with software company Altair to 3D print an optimized industrial robot arm for a robot provided by ABB Robotics. The project, which leveraged Altair’s design expertise with MX3D’s large-scale metal 3D printing capability, demonstrates how generative design can optimize and customize robotic arms for increased productivity. The project also showcases how MX3D’s metal AM technology can efficiently produce large-scale metal parts with complex geometries.
