Breakthrough in Laser-Based Metal 3D-Printing Reduces Defects
Combining high-fidelity computer simulations with ultra-high-speed X-ray imaging, researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have discovered a strategy for reducing or even eliminating defects in parts built through a common, laser-based metal...
3D-printed Activat3D copper from Spee3D kills SARS-CoV-2 virus on contact surfaces
Spee3D has developed and tested a way to quickly 3D-print antimicrobial copper onto metal surfaces. . Laboratory tests have shown that touch surfaces modified by this process “contact kills” 96% of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in two hours. The...
3D Metal Printing Revolutionized With New Technology
The 3D printer developed at TU Graz melts metal powder using high-performance LED light sources and then processes it into components in additive manufacturing. . Selective LED-based melting (SLEDM) — i.e. the targeted melting of metal powder using high-power LED...
3D Metal Printing Revolutionized With New Technology
Selective LED-based melting (SLEDM) — i.e. the targeted melting of metal powder using high-power LED light sources — is the name of the new technology that a team led by Franz Haas, head of the Institute of Production Engineering at TU Graz, has developed for 3D metal...
Haute Fabrication launches self-learning metal 3D printing service with build volumes up to 5.2 cubic metres
