Explore the latest news in Additive Manufacturing with AM Chronicle’s round up of Week 15 of 2024.
The round up of last week includes partnership between Materialise and Renishaw; launch of 3D printed micro gas turbine by Aurora Labs; Nikon launched DED machine and 3D scanner and much more.
Materialise and Renishaw announce partnership to increase efficiency of metal 3D printing
Materialise and Renishaw, have announced a partnership to increase efficiency and productivity for manufacturers using Renishaw’s additive manufacturing (AM) systems.
Aurora Labs 3D prints micro gas turbine
Aurora Labs has 3D printed a micro gas turbine that could be the center of a small propulsion system or power plant for unmanned aerial vehicles or instant power generation.
3D Spark signs three-year breakthrough deal with Alstom
Leveraging 3D Spark, Alstom achieved remarkable success in additive manufacturing, resulting in more than fifteen million euros in savings and a 2,600-month reduction in lead times, boosting cash efficiency and spare parts availability.
Nikon releases its latest Metal Additive Manufacturing System and 3D Scanner
Nikon has announced its next-generation metal additive manufacturing system, the Lasermeister LM300A, which uses Directed Energy Deposition (DED) technology, as well as the complementary 3D scanner, Lasermeister SB100. These industry-leading products represent the latest strategic additions to the Nikon Advanced Manufacturing solutions portfolio.
Materialise adds three 3D printing materials for HP Multi Jet Fusion and fused deposition modelling
Materialise has expanded its 3D printing capabilities with three new industrial-focused materials. The addition of Polyamide 12S (PA 12S) and Polyamide 11 (PA 11) for HP Multi Jet Fusion alongside Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polyamide (PA-CF) for fused deposition modelling brings the Belgian additive manufacturing company’s materials offering to a total of 38, and are said to provide a range of benefits for prototyping and serial production applications across several industrial sectors.
Transforming plastic waste into 3D printing material
Shifting Shap3s is creating the FilamentPro; a device designed to transform plastic waste into high-quality recycled filament for use in 3D printing. That’s where Dalhousie Chemical Engineering students come in; partnering with Shifting Shap3s to refine the design. The collaboration is part of Dalhousie Engineering’s Capstone Program; an opportunity that provides all senior year engineering students with the chance to partner with industry on real-world challenges.
