Large-Format 3D Printer Doesn’t Need Support Structures to Ensure Quality
Featuring a build volume of 600 mm x 550 mm, VELO3D’s extra-capacity Sapphire XC uses Flow print-preparation software and Assure quality assurance software to manufacture high-quality parts without using support structures.
Economical 3D Printer for Medical and Dental Devices
Featuring two 300-watt lasers, melt pool and process monitoring, and end-to-end documentation that corroborates quality, Trumpf’s TruPrint 2000 requires fewer add-ons, making the entry-level investment lower for companies that want to get into additive manufacturing.
Selective Laser Melting Systems for Any Size Shop
With a build envelope of 11 by 11 by 14 inches, SLM Solutions’ SLM 280 2.0 is ideal for medium-to-high-volume additive manufacturing. With its build envelope of almost 2 square feet, the 12-laser NXG XII is designed for peak production.
Sigma Labs Creates New Directed Energy Deposition Application
A partnership with Northwestern University expands in-process quality assurance technology across a broad array of 3d printing processes.
How to Minimize Post-Processing Headaches for 3D-Printed Parts
Although 3D metal printing is becoming more popular, finishing remains a challenging and arduous task. Understanding how post-processing works and how to measure results will help you optimize this crucial step.
Additive Manufacturing for Air, Land, Sea, and Space Applications
Sciaky’s wire-based electron beam additive manufacturing (EBAM) 3D printing technology is faster, less expensive, and safer than other direct energy deposition (DED) options. Closed-loop adaptive control system ensures precision and repeatability.
Sintavia and Siemens Agree to Collaborate on Accelerating Digital Automation for Industrial Additive Manufacturing
Sintavia will provide Siemens with software testing and technical feedback in exchange for access to pre-released additive manufacturing software.
VELO3D Qualifies Hastelloy X for Sapphire 3D Metal Printer
A new process enables the industrial gas turbines market to print components it couldn’t before, including those that must withstand extreme high temperatures.
Engine Maker Uses 3D Metal Printing to Optimize Cylinder Redesign
Like Renishaw’s other additive manufacturing (AM) systems, the laser-based AM 400 powder bed fusion printer builds complex components directly from digital CAD files. This came in handy for a Michigan engine developer trying to optimize drone performance.
Fabrication Windfall: Machine Control Hardware, Software and Cloud-Based Services
Take a look at Siemens’ solutions and services for the fabrication and additive manufacturing industries. Noteworthy in the lineup: Sinumerik Motion Control (MC) system, an open, industrial PC-based controller with embedded CNC and PLC.
3DEO Ships 150,000 Production Parts
Founded just four years ago, the milestone demonstrates 3DEO is realizing its mission in the metal additive manufacturing market.
Automated Laser Cladding for 3D Metal Additive Repair
Optomec integrates Fanuc LRMate 200 robotic loading with its Huffman line of production 3D metal additive repair machines for high-volume turbine work and myriad industrial applications. Autonomous batch processing expedites cycle times and frees the operator to add value elsewhere.
