News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Nexa3D is now shipping its market-ready XiP 3D desktop printers to customers in the US and Canada. Since introducing its first Lubricant Sublayer Photo-curing (LSPc) system for the desktop at Formnext in November 2021 – the product’s waitlist has extended to hundreds of product designers and creators looking to increase the throughput and efficiency of their desktop 3D printing.
Earlier this year, BCN3D Technologies announced that its strive for innovation had led its 3D printing experts to never-before-seen 3D printing technology, using high viscosity resins. Developed over the last three years, the patented Viscous Lithography Manufacturing (VLM) provoked mass interest worldwide, with more than 500 companies registering to become early adopters of the development of this ecosystem. BCN3D, in a response to the demand, has partnered with Arkema, and Henkel, to obtain material properties and applications otherwise unreachable with other resin-based technologies, and has committed to delivering 20 VLM printers to 20 of the companies currently enlisted in its Technology Adoption Program, during Spring 2023.
Titomic Limited (ASX: TTT), a cold spray additive manufacturing technology company with primary application in aerospace and defense, has received purchase orders from Australian-based companies for four separate D523 low-pressure cold spray systems, totaling $314,900 in sales.
With the new GMP300 metal 3D printer, GROB, a German company specializing in automated production systems, looks to offer its customers a production system for the manufacturing of near-net-shape components via AM range for the first time. The new LMP (Liquid Metal Printing) system, which was first unveiled at a GROB in-house exhibition, announcing the entry of GROB-WERKE into the Additive Manufacturing sector, has now also been presented at the ongoing Additive Manufacturing Forum in Berlin.
Roboze has presented the new PRO series, in addition to professional solutions that use its proprietary software, Prometheus, and new materials to increase companies’ digital transition opportunities. The machines offer quick and cost-effective access to the production of parts with well-defined technical and industrial requirements, as they can support the validation of finished AM parts with super polymers and technical materials (PEEK, TPU, ABS, etc), and, with the same solution, accelerate the research and development of new applications, and the digitization of the warehouse of tools and spare parts. Productivity, quality, versatility, and rapid ROI acceleration represent the common factors of the new series.
Knust-Godwin, a precision contract manufacturer, has received a Sapphire XC from Velo3D to expand its metal additive manufacturing (AM) capabilities.
At the recent Ceramtec trade show in Munich, French company 3DCeram unveiled the new C1000 FLEXMATIC, an SLA ceramic 3D printer designed to meet the industrial challenges of large-scale production. The machine integrates the SMART Ceramic Factory, 3DCeram’s factory of the future, and has all the assets to print ceramic parts in a semi-automated line.
