Described as a potential breakthrough in making additive manufacturing more sustainable, SAF ReLife is said to be able to repurpose waste PA12 powder from powder bed fusion machines for use on the Stratasys H350 3D printing system.
Adrian Painter, Managing Director at Tri-Tech 3D, UK provider of Stratasys 3D printing solutions, explores how AM could help manufacturers meet their environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals.
Atomik AM has announced it is working with fuel cell and hydrogen production technology developer Cygnus Atratus to explore how waste from its aluminium 3D printing processes could be used to create energy.
Laura Griffiths speaks to Atomik AM CEO Prof Kate Black and Commercial Manager Gareth Neal about the UK company’s radical approach to responsible manufacturing.
The process has been designed to utilise Earth-based materials that do not require cement, with the construction robots shooting material from above to gradually build structures like walls.
The additive manufacturing company says the Mar-M247 powder, processed with proprietary technology from Continuum Powders, is now listed amongst 40 metals and ceramics in Desktop Metal’s material portfolio as ‘R&D Qualified’.
The façade was developed in collaboration with Ippolito Fleitz Group and uses 3D printed waste materials to ‘create an innovative and circular storefront.’
6K Additive has been selected by RTX Technology Research Center (RTRC) and the University of Arizona for the America Makes and National Center for Defense Manufacturing and Machining (NCDMM) EARTH project.
The Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) has invested in a new hub for sustainable additive manufacturing to support the development of net zero products with end-to-end circularity.
