How Additive Multi-Tasking Resets the Bar in Advanced Machining
The new compact VC-500 AM HYBRID Multi-Tasking machine from Mazak combines full 5-axis capability and additive technology to revolutionize product design, reduce time to market and cut research and development costs.
Additive Precision Grinding
The additive hybrid millGrind machine from Elb-America combines grinding, milling and the option of laser deposition welding in a single machine, saving not only equipment costs, but also valuable setup changing and retooling time.
The Shape of Hybrid Machining
The SAUER LASERTEC 45 Shape from DMG MORI uses 3D laser ablation to make small integrated parts or achieve defined textures in injection molding tools, and their SAUER LASERTEC 65 3D hybrid machine combines laser deposition welding and 5-axis milling to make highly complex parts in one setup.
Automatic Welding Helmet Increases Operator Comfort and Productivity
The Sentinel A50 automatic welding helmet from ESAB features Halo headgear and an ergonomic, low-profile design for improved weight distribution with five contact points.
Automated Barrier Panel for Robotic Welding Cells
An alternative to light curtains or area scanners, the Vertiguard Automated Barrier Panel from Rite-Hite Machine Guarding is ideal for small interaction points with single or double robotic cells, part assembly, and conveyor openings.
How to Improve Jobsite Productivity and Safety
Easy to setup, the heavy duty 4-Pack Rack from Lincoln Electric reduces jobsite cable clutter by accommodating up to four Flextec 350X welders.
Affordable 3D Metal Printing for Small Shops
The ORLAS CREATOR metal additive manufacturing machine from O.R. Lasertechnology is ideal for small and medium shops competing in the jewelry, dentistry and medical sectors, as well as for smaller engineering firms and laboratories.
Metal 3D Printing
This innovative process technology continues to disrupt the business of metalworking and advance metal fabrication to the new levels of competitive advantage in design freedom and manufacturing complexity.
Here is some of the latest 3D printing equipment, automation, software and other advances in metal additive manufacturing.
A Revolutionary Metal 3D Printing Technology Suite
Agile Metal Technology software from Sculpteo deeply analyzes design compatibility for metal AM, fixes problems, automates complex modeling procedures, finds “best fit” processes and techniques, and predicts and recommends how to optimize design elements, including lattices, supports and post-processing workflows.
Quick and Flexible 3D Printing of Complex Metal Parts
A perfect fit for job shops, medical or dental applications, or for research and development work, the TruPrint 1000 laser metal fusion printer from TRUMPF can generate complex parts that are a maximum of 100 mm diameter and 100 mm tall.
Next Generation High Power Metal 3D Printing
The advanced SLM 280 2.0 metal 3D printer from SLM Solutions optimizes laser power through improved gas flow management that efficiently removes soot generated by the lasers in the build chamber so that the optics are not disrupted.
Software Certifies 3D Printing Quality Compliance
PrintRite3D INSPECT software from Sigma Labs uses new melt pool algorithms and enhanced QA documentation to verify even greater precision and repeatability for part qualification and certification.
