World’s largest car maker invests in fully automated metal additive manufacturing system for tooling.

Desktop 3D printers generate ultrafine particles (UFPs) while in operation. UFPs may pose a health concern since they are the size of nanoparticles and may be inhaled and penetrate deep into the human pulmonary system.

The Innovation Space for Additive Manufacturing will be located at W1201 at Singapore Polytechnic and set up as an exclusive space for metal additive manufacturing, where a Renishaw AM system and auxiliary equipment will be based. The partnership creates an entirely new and beneficial pathway for both staff and students of Singapore Polytechnic, as well as Renishaw.

ASTM International announced its first round of funding to support research that will help catalyze the development of needed standards in additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing.

More than 1.4 million square feet of exhibit space in the multi-hall convention center are filled with the newest manufacturing technology.

Technology company‘s new location is Chicago’s first-ever industrial-grade additive manufacturing facility.

The symposium will be held in conjunction with the November standards development meetings of the committee.

The association has supported the manufacturing industry for over 85 years.

The event will focus on the industrial applications of AM for making functional components and end-use production parts. Attendees will gain practical knowledge on AM adoption and implementation and can network with AM industry leaders.
