The Additive Manufacturer Green Trade Association (AMGTA) has announced its first lifecycle assessment (LCA) research project will focus on the design and manufacture of an aerospace component.
Stratasys has outlined its commitment to climate action and social impact with the appointment of a VP of Sustainability and the setting of four UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The addition of Stratasys, 3D Metalforge, 3D Systems, 3YOURMIND, AMT, Hyperion Metals, NatureWorks, and The Barnes Global Advisors now brings the AMGTA's total membership to 28.
The Belgian additive manufacturing company first announced the selective laser sintering breakthrough last year which makes it possible to 3D print with up to 100% re-used powder.
The panels have been designed to reduce naturally occurring reverberation that occurs in commercial and residential spaces by adopting a unique parametric design script that generates an elegant, undulating surface that disperses sound waves.
SABIC and Local Motors have determined that up to 100% of the material from the post-production of large format additive manufacturing (LFAM) parts can be reused in LFAM and other processes.
GKN Aerospace has delivered the first Intermediate Compressor Case (ICC) to the Rolls-Royce UltraFan engine demonstrator programme with the help of 3D printing.
The process uses Desktop Metal’s single pass binder jetting technology to turn waste sawdust dust and lignin into sustainably manufactured custom wood products such as furniture, interiors and architectural pieces.
The new glass-fibre filled recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) is the first 3D printing material to come out of Covestro's takeover of DSM’s Resins & Functional Materials business last year.
AMT has received an £87,grant from Innovate UK to support the development of a bio-renewable consumable for the post-processing of thermoplastic elastomer parts.
