This week we found the top 5 videos about 3D printing and the way additive manufacturing is shaping our society. The technology has infiltrated many sectors, from medical to automotive! Check out our selection of the week to keep up with the innovations! This week we touch on Sandvik’s new titanium powder production plant for additive manufacturing and much more! 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: Titanium Powder Plant
The Swedish company, specialized in metal 3D printing, opened its new titanium powder production plant for additive manufacturing. It added a new material to its range, which will allow it to expand the type of applications opportunities, particularly in the medical, automotive and aeronautical sectors. Titanium is renowned for its lightness, strength and biocompatibility. The inauguration brought together more than 150 people, they discovered a place specially designed for additive manufacturing!
Top 2: AM at the FHNW School of Engineering
Selective laser melting is the most successful production method for metal 3D printing. The FHNW Institute of Product and Production Engineering boasts extensive know-how for the entire development cycle of SLM components, from design to simulation, production to material characterisation, right through to validation. Check out this process below!
