A ceramic subperiosteal jaw implant produced with 3D printing technology from Lithoz has been successfully placed in a patient for the first time ever.
The material has been developed in response to demand from industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and electrical devices for applications requiring heat resistance, strength, rigidity, modulus, and impact performance.
Making the announcement at RAPID + TCT in Los Angeles, the company says Loctite 3D IND3380 from Henkel is now available immediately for use on its Hybrid PhotoSynthesis (HPS) printer.
The ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED features a new PolyFlow X system, which offers fast and controlled deposition flow, and is said to result in a reduction in production times by up to 62%.
The Belgian 3D printing company says its flagship data and build preparation product now includes updates that improve efficiency and cost-effectiveness for users integrating new parts and designs for AM.
The Dutch additive manufacturing company says the MetalFab 300 Flex provides ‘unprecedented flexibility for manufacturers’ thanks to its on-demand build platform size, believed to be an industry first.
The precision machining company will use the machine to produce parts in Constellium’s Aheadd CP1 aluminium alloy, a material which is said to greatly reduces post-printing heat treatment requirements.
Sandra Poelsma, Print Process Architect at Additive Industries joins us to discuss the complexities of metal additive manufacturing and a brand new machine launching at RAPID + TCT.
