Today, TCT Show is coming to a close. The last three days have been greatly exciting for the world of additive manufacturing, with many industry players showcasing and launching innovative 3D printing solutions at the event. In order to wrap up the show, we will give you an overview of the launches we witnessed here in Birmingham!
This year TCT Show opened its doors to nearly 10,000 visitors and welcomed almost 300 exhibitors such as HP, Ultimaker, Trumpf, Formlabs, Siemens and Renishaw. The event also launched some new programmes such as TCT Summit, a user-led conference, TCT Insights Stage, which included a workshop on the fundamentals of additive manufacturing led by Graham Tromans and TCT Connect, a networking platform for professionals that wanted to exchange ideas to facilitate business growth – amongst many more additional features!
Recap of the launches at TCT Show
Zortrax, manufacturer of comprehensive 3D printing solutions based in Poland debuted its 3D printing platform called Endureal. Endureal is a third generation industrial solution that has been designed for advanced engineering and medical applications. This solution targets those looking for a machine capable of high-volume production. This is the reason why the manufacturer has integrated many features to its 3D printer such as a build plate made of ferritic stainless steels covered with PEI film, or thermally-shielded extruder compartments, etc.
