Bringing you up to speed with the week that went by in the world of Additive Manufacturing with the AM Chronicle weekly news update
The round up of last weeks additive manufacturing news includes launch of contract manufacturing network by EOS; launch of Creality Ender-5 FDM printer; partnership between BNNano and Innosek and successful printing of 9.9-meter-high villa by Dar Al Arkan in Saudi Arabia.
EOS Launches Contract Manufacturing Network
EOS, has launched its new Contract Manufacturing Network. The network connects end customers with established AM production partners, so they can create high quality parts in a fast and reliable way. Initially the network will be set up in EMEA with seven partners, namely FKM, Erpro, Volum-E, Pankl, Materialise, Oerlikon, Hasenauer & Hesser. It will be expanded globally, with more partners joining over the coming months.
