This increase is designed to meet growing demand across thermal management, RF, and power applications. The company also plans to grow its teams in manufacturing, design, quality, and process […]
Researchers at Texas A&M University are developing a 3D printing approach to tackle a long-standing gap in pediatric care: the lack of safe, precisely measured drug doses for children. Led by Professor Mansoor Khan, the team is building hospital-ready technology designed to replace improvised liquid formulations with on-demand, accurately dosed tablets — a shift that […]
Post-processing system manufacturer Solukon displayed its novel range of depowdering equipment at Formnext 2025 last week. A special version of the SFM-AT800-S was on display, combining automated part transport, depowdering, and a robotic finishing stage in a setup developed with Grenzebach and Yaskawa. According to the manufacturer, the arrangement is meant to illustrate how multiple […]
Nikon SLM Solutions, a German manufacturer of metal additive manufacturing (AM) systems, has partnered with Swedish visualization and analytics software company Interspectral to create an integrated quality-assurance and process-monitoring solution for industrial production. The collaboration links Interspectral’s AM Explorer software with Nikon SLM Solutions’ open-architecture metal AM platforms, enabling real-time visualization, AI-powered analytics, and data […]
Resin printing becomes far more approachable when the machine handles the critical steps that normally slow users down or introduce avoidable errors. With the novel UltraCraft Reflex RS Turbo, the Chinese 3D printer manufacturer HeyGears puts its attention on measurable behaviors such as light contrast, repeat positioning accuracy, and real time motion control. These characteristics […]
Germany-based materials producer TANIOBIS GmbH is set to showcase its latest niobium alloy powders for high-temperature aerospace applications at Formnext 2025 (Hall 11.0, booth C73) and at Space Tech Expo (booth 602).
