Additive Manufacturing with Continuous Fiber Injection Process REINFORCE3D , a startup from Tarragona, Spain, is making waves in the world of additive manufacturing with its fiber injection process (#CFIP). This innovative technology promises to significantly enhance the strength and performance of hollow #3D-printed parts by injecting continuous fibers and liquid resin into them. #CFIP is a versatile reinforcement technique applicable to hollow parts made from a wide range of materials, including composites, ceramics, unreinforced polymers, and metals. This process is a game-changer for industries that require high-performance components, such as aerospace, automotive, and sporting goods. The CFIP process begins with the inspection and cleaning of the hollow part's cavities. A programmable injection head, which can be operated manually or mounted on a robotic arm, then injects specially treated fibers and liquid resin into the cavities. This method allows for the creation of parts that are lightweight yet strong, with complex and curved shapes that were previously difficult to achieve with traditional manufacturing techniques. One of the standout features of CFIP is its ability to design precise fiber trajectories. This ensures that the material volume and fiber placement are optimized to meet the specific strength requirements of the part. This meticulous design process allows for significant weight reduction without compromising the structural integrity of the component.

I can imagine that a titanium frame is preferable to a steel or alumunium one, and that the cost will be a major consideration. It is therefore great to see additive manufacturing result in a "radically simplified [...] process, not only reducing total production time by 30%, but also limiting material wastage by over 20%" https://buff.ly/3RPyiWw #supplychain #3dprinting #additivemanufacturing #leadtime

The 3D printing industry is constantly evolving with new advancements in technology.

Two of the most prominent technologies, Multi-Jet Fusion (MJF) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), offer strong material options and unique finish qualities for high-quality parts. In this article, we dive into key characteristics, mechanical properties, and differences between these technologies to determine which is right for your project. https://lnkd.in/eNWqiExN #mjf #sls #3dprinting #Endeavor3D

| EOS Case Study - PCBs - Beta Layout | Additive manufacturing offers a significant advantage for both individual developers and large established companies by enabling the creation of custom-made circuit carriers for prototypes of new electronic devices. The process allows for the rapid and cost-effective production of plastic components while maintaining the necessary precision and high component quality. This ensures that the basic structure can be manufactured to closely resemble a series-production item, which is particularly beneficial during test runs. EOS technology provides a high degree of flexibility by allowing the machine to process various materials. These materials include PA 3200 GF, filled with glass beads, and the aluminum-filled polyamide Alumide. High-performance polymers like PEEK and various metals are also available. Crucially, all these materials can withstand high temperatures, a common limitation in the injection-molding process used for series production. This flexibility enables Beta LAYOUT to meet the diverse individual requirements of its customers, such as specific characteristics needed for the intended purpose of the circuit carrier. As a result, the company can develop optimized solutions that may offer lower costs, higher temperature resistance, or other specific benefits.
