This week we found the top 5 videos about 3D printing and the way additive manufacturing is changing production. The technology has infiltrated many sectors, from medical to automotive – check 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: Nexa3D & Henkel Collaboration
A fruitful partnership between Nexa3D and Henkel brought about the development of a new material. During the global health crisis it became clear that we need new innovative solutions, and fast. Thus, Nexa3D, the maker of ultrafast stereolithography production 3D printers, and Henkel, a leading supplier of high impact functional additive materials, worked together to quickly develop a new polypropylene-like material called xMED412, which is ideal for manufacturing a variety of biocompatible, medical and wearable devices.
Top 2: AMT’s automated de-powdering system
Developed by AMT (Additive Manufacturing Technologies Ltd.), PostProDP Pro is an industrial de-powdering system that aims to facilitate the process by reducing the manual intervention in the AM workflow process. The incorporation of this de-powdering system would reduce labor costs as 90% of the parts can be cleaned automatically. Apparently, the process is rather fast too – you can get clean products in about 10 minutes only. The PostProDP is software enabled and ergonomic. The system is made for companies scaling up their additive manufacturing facilities into high volume production lines.
