BigRep ALTRA 280, the Ultimate High-Temperature Industrial 3D Printer
The ALTRA 280 was engineered to solve a challenge that’s persisted for years: reliably and affordably producing large, complex parts in both engineering-grade and high-performance polymers.
How Miniaturisation is Reshaping Product Development
Products are shrinking, yet their functionality and complexity are growing exponentially. This shift is rewriting the rules of design, engineering, and manufacturing.
Rewriting the Rules of Scalable Manufacturing
The project, which fused AM-driven computational design with production-grade investment casting, successfully scaled an intricately engineered part from tens to thousands per day — all without compromising performance, cost-efficiency, or sustainability.
How Industrial 3D Printing is Propelling Small and Mid-Sized Manufacturers Forward
With lower barriers to entry, small and mid-sized manufacturers have more opportunities than ever to integrate industrial 3D printing into their operations while avoiding the hurdles that once held them back.
AUTOMATION IS UNLOCKING THE FUTURE OF AM SERVICES
In this article, I want to dive into the role automation plays in the approach to AM services, highlighting the benefits it delivers to customers, how it drives operational efficiency, and why it’s essential for the future of this industry.
How 3D Printing is Paving the Way for Grading Contractor, C.J. Moyna & Sons
At C.J. Moyna & Sons, being on the lookout for disruptive technologies is a part of his everyday routine. When they set on a path to integrate additive manufacturing into their daily processes, the work became easier for C.J. Moyna & Sons and their sister companies.
Launching of a 3D Printing Company
In this interview, the co-founders of 3D People Sasha Bruml and Felix Manley, talk about what motivated them to launch the company in 2017 and how they stay motivated to keep delivering and continue adding value for their customers.
