This week we found the top 5 videos about 3D printing and the way additive manufacturing is changing production processes. The technology has infiltrated many sectors, from medical to automotive – check out our selection of the week to keep up with the innovations! If you enjoy these, you can view even more 3D printing videos on our Youtube channel. Hope you’ll enjoy and have a great Sunday!
Top 1: BCN3D gives us a backstage tour of its factory!
In Barcelona, we had the chance for our first #Inside3DTour to check out the backstage of BCN3D’s 3D printing factory. BCN3D is one of the leading manufacturers of FFF 3D printers. In their factory, they produce and put together their Sigma and Sigmax 3D printers for international shipment. More than a factory, it is also the headquarters of the company, where its world operations are monitored!
Top 2: How do engineers and designers use 3D printing?
At 3DEXPERIENCE World 2020 organized by Dassault Systèmes, we got the opportunity to speak with engineers and designers about their use of 3D printing technologies. From designing packaging, to creating molds and fixtures, AM has truly infiltrated every sector! We asked attendees which software they use from DS and all of them said SOLIDWORKS – not surprising as this is probably the most popular 3D modeling solution from the company.
