EnvisionTEC CEO Al Siblani—whose firm is being purchased by Desktop Metal—discusses photopolymers’ move from prototyping to production. He gets into how he sees the sale will impact his company, as well as Desktop Metal and the 3D printing market in general. For the uninitiated, he also patiently explains how the 3d printing of polymers has progressed over the years. Last but not least, he details EnvisionTEC’s plans for growth—and asserts that the cost of 3D printing has reached a point where it is disrupting plastics.

Better wheels and more capable machines add to grinding’s edge on tough materials

I first wrote about substitute skin in 1993. And at the time, it seemed that stand-in organs—at scale—were imminent.

Profound changes in the manufacturing landscape are now being driven by current health concerns and their influence on how plant and factory workers do their jobs.

Blended learning relies on a combination of in-person classes, self-learning and interactive online tools.

Designing new aerospace engines is challenging, but Rolls-Royce Germany turned to data analytics and AI to meet these challenges. The results? Reduced costs and shortened lead times.

3D Systems said it agreed to sell its On Demand Manufacturing Business.

Holemaking in steel and cast iron up to one inch in diameter is one of the most widely used metalworking processes. What is driving drilling and tapping performance are advances in substrate, coatings, three-flute designs, and combination tools. Just as important are advances in coolant delivery, using different size holes and shapes to facilitate chip evacuation.

This is the first in a series of articles that will cover the accelerating improvement in manufacturing technology.
