The Dutch 3D printing company’s MetalFab Powder Load Tool (PLT) is now available for direct filling and transportation for users of its flagship MetalFab laser powder bed fusion systems with Sandvik’s Osprey powders.
In our latest Innovators on Innovators episode, Kat Ermant & Brianne Malloy they come together to discuss their journeys from fine art undergraduates to additive manufacturing engineers.
The FS621M-Cu is a large-format 3D printer which includes four 1000W ytterbium fibre lasers (1060–1080 nm) to achieve stable, long-duration printing of highly reflective materials like CuCrZr.
The company believes the integration will enable seamless, automated print farm management on Bambu’s portfolio of 3D printers, including the P1, X1, and A1 series.
It includes advancements in gas turbines, hydrogen-powered flight and large-scale aerostructure manufacturing, with additive manufacturing projects from Airbus, GKN Aerospace and more named amongst specific investments.
The additively manufactured turbine wheel, designed for the TJ150 turbojet engine, is said to mark a significant step forward in the aerospace manufacturer’s 3D printing capabilities
The deal, which was announced in April for a total consideration of $350 million, is set on delivering a first-of-its-kind platform for sourcing both custom and standard mechanical components.
The desktop stereolithography leader is introducing Color Resin V5, a first-of-its-kind material for customised colour formulations, and True Cast Resin for printing detailed casting patterns.
The production milestone was hit at the company’s Huntersville, North Carolina facility where it is using laser powder bed fusion technology to produce high-performance metal components for critical defence applications.
Divergent has been enlisted to apply its proprietary Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS) to support next-generation aerospace and defence technologies.
