Is it possible to print anything? That is a valid question in the world of 3D technology in which 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, can be used to output almost anything via digital simulation, including cars. Additive manufacturing uses various technologies to produce a part by building layer upon layer. One of its benefits is streamlining the overall manufacturing process by removing the need for costly castings and machined tooling. Production of gas turbines in Finspång, Sweden is a prime example of the technological advancements being made in the overall production process.

🔧 What is the difference between 3D printing and additive manufacturing in terms of creation processes? #3Dprinting typically refers to consumer-grade, desktop-sized machines that create objects by depositing material layer by layer. It's commonly used for rapid prototyping and hobbyist projects. ✅ Additive manufacturing, on the other hand, encompasses a broader range of techniques, including industrial-scale processes like laser sintering and electron beam melting. It's used for manufacturing functional, end-use parts in industries like aerospace and healthcare. 📰 Explore applications of #additivemanufacturing: https://zurl.co/vH7Q 🌐 Xometry offers additive manufacturing services online.

Is it printing or is it about the end product? Additive Manufacturing? When it comes to 3D printing, serial production is everything! Stop talking about the dissatisfyers: - Extruder Temperatures - Extruder Pressures. - Synchronized Interpolation - Material Quality - Robot Movements - Material Transportation - Toolpath Planning Let's talk about the satisfyers: - Production logistics (on demand) - Throughput time - Post-treatment time - Reduction of failure costs in production - Use printing as a production method - End product quality - Production costs for serial production - Data analysis of serial production There's a lot more to consider in large format 3D printing than the whole game of mechanics and engineering. It's all about a reliable production method and risk reduction. The good news? We got it solved, we deliver serial robotic production solution as a turnkey service. “Keep us in mind ‘cause you will get the robotic additive manufacturing question eventually”. #composites #largeformatprinting #robotics #additivemanufacturing #systemintegrator #ABBRobotics #BLOOMRobotics #production

3D printing is an additive manufacturing technology that converts digital design files into physical objects.

It sounds to be a bit of a tall order for the Structures Uniquely Resolved to Guarantee Endurance (SURGE) program, which is exploring a new approach, where the life of every unique manufactured component is predicted on the fly, with the goal of producing any part geometry on any machine, anywhere in the world, at any time, while guaranteeing part life. By merging in-situ sensing technologies, process modeling, and microstructure-based fatigue-life methods to quantify the useful life of manufactured hardware. Predictions will come from extensive experimental validation. But a very interesting concept all the same. Where 3D printing today works to perfect the operation of individual additive manufacturing machines or components, to produce material repeatably with known properties through months or years of process optimization and material property testing at a cost that easily can surpass millions of dollars. https://lnkd.in/gFB488-9 #aviation #research #development #innovation #technology #engineering #design #manufacturing #additivemanufacturing #3dprinting #4dprinting #advancedmanufacturing #digitalmanufacturing #smartmanufacturing #translationalresearch #knowledgetransfer #cooperation #collabboration #collaborativeresearch #transformation #partnership

Practically unlimited opportunities: Metal additive manufacturing (AM) technologies offer maximum freedom of design and production meaning a paradigm change to design-driven manufacturing possible anywhere in the world. In recent years industrial 3D printing has shifted from prototyping to production enabling not only innovative part designs but also innovative business models. Both can change an entire industry. This webinar provides an overview of the different metal AM technologies, their strengths and weaknesses plus insights on their suitability for production. https://lnkd.in/d5bBEEZ
