The America Makes affiliate at Ohio State University develops additive technology and talent.
The author argues for using his company's machine-based design software.
Sandvik expands its additive offering through introducing 3D printed cemented carbide.
What manufacturers wanting in on Industry 4.0 should know before investing in a 3D printer
CAD/CAM improves generative design, print simulation, path programming and process control in additive manufacturing.
GOM Scan 1 is a portable 3D scanner designed for the serious hobbyist or industrial engineer that needs to digitize small to medium-sized objects at an affordable price
Metal diffusion bonding is an essential joining method for achieving a high-purity interface when two similar metals require superior structural integrity. The process involves applying high temperature, and pressure to metals mated together in a hot press causes the atoms on solid metallic surfaces to intersperse and bond.
Thermwood Corp. has added a third print orientation to its LSAM Large Scale Additive Manufacturing systems.
Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group is now using 3D printing from Stratasys to manufacture flight-ready parts for several of its military, civil and business aircraft—while producing specific ground-running equipment at a lower cost than aluminum alternatives.
The state of manufacturing is always a combination of tried and true methods; improvements (sometimes dramatic) in traditional processes; and brand new technology few people even conceived of a few years ago.
