Production scale of high-value materials such as tungsten and rhenium enables advanced application capabilities in aerospace, defense, and medical industries.
The U.S. Navy has issued Stratasys a $20 million contract to purchase up to 25 Stratasys F900 3D printers over the next five years, with delivery of the first eight expected before the end of 2021.
3D Systems today announced two additions to its industry-leading materials portfolio.
Three trends show a path to a more mature use of 3D printing: production in hospitals and clinics, technology developments and reimbursement.
The future vision for POC medical manufacturing includes printing patient-matched implants where no existing devices are available.
Additive manufacturing is uniquely positioned to enable "rapid response manufacturing."
New materials for 3D printing are rapidly evolving.
Reverse engineering is becoming multifaceted and complex. The key drivers: new metrology sensors and more capable software, enabled by ever more powerful and cheaper computing.
The COVID-19 pandemic clearly proved challenging to the manufacturing industry in myriad ways. Now, as nations and industries begin to navigate their way forward as restrictions are lifted, manufacturers have an opportunity to put into practice some lessons learned.
Feature-based Product Line Engineering refers to the engineering of a portfolio of related products using a shared set of engineering assets, a managed set of features, and an automated means of production.
