The question is, how can manufacturers mitigate issues related to problems with carbon footprint, supply chains, and labor shortages? Additive manufacturing may be the answer; it has the potential to overcome many of these difficulties.
If the additive manufacturing (AM) industry wants to improve its commercial and environmental sustainability, changing how we think of scrap—indeed refuting the whole concept—is something that we must embrace.
3D Systems today announced The Technology House, an Ohio-based contract manufacturer, has purchased an SLA 750 to enhance its manufacturing workflow.
Stratasys Ltd. and Desktop Metal Inc. agreed to combine in a deal valued at $1.8 billion.
In the pursuit of enabling production-quantity 3D printing, the historical focus has been on improving printer throughput and material properties. Multi-jet fusion (MJF) and direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) printing technologies have achieved considerable success on this front.
Digital and Industry 4.0 technology are revamping manufacturing, a trend that will accelerate, the president of Siemens USA said today.
The adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) as a tool for end-part production is at a tipping point in 2023.
Additive manufacturing regularly confronts the issue of full-scale manufacturing vs. product customization.
Terry Wohlers describes the outlook for additive manufacturing.
The macroeconomic outlook has also taken a toll on the additive manufacturing (AM) industry, with adoption not living up to expectations. This is reflected in the slumping stock prices of publicly traded 3D-printing companies.
