New 3D printing partnerships from PostProcess, Meltio, Nexa3D, Hexagon, Freemelt, Axial3D
在本周的合作伙伴关系新闻开始的是自动化后处理系统制造商后期处理，与激光原型欧洲（LPE）为该公司在英国和爱尔兰的大型客户群实施自动化后印刷。LPE已安装后处理的DEMI 430树脂去除系统。
“Staying ahead of the curve is what’s enabled us to deliver quality prototypes and products to our customers for the last 30 years,” said Tom Walls, Managing Director of LPE. “We look forward to streamlining our processes even further with automated post-printing in the DEMI 430, a solution we can trust to intelligently handle our wide array of print technologies and resins.”
在其他地方，3D打印机制造商Meltiohas signed a strategic partnership with India’s largest CNC manufacturerBharat Fritz Werner(BFW) as an official value-added partner. BFW will be responsible for integrating Meltio’s technology into its machines for the Indian manufacturing sector, while simultaneously widening its own product portfolio and application range.
High-speed resin 3D printer manufacturernexa3d同时，与3D DDS为了使牙科专业人士更能获得NEXA3D超快聚合物3D打印机的投资组合。
这partnership will combine Nexa3D’s ultrafast LSPc 3D printing technology with 3D DDS’ training, personalized technical support, backup print services and custom workflow management integration tools.
这Manufacturing Intelligence division of Sweden-based global technology firm六边形has partnered with 3D printing software companyCADS添加剂为了将技术交换为增材制造（DFAM）的进度设计。
这agreement will see Hexagon integrate CADS Additive’s material-saving support structure generation technology into its Simufact Additive software. Meanwhile, CADS Additive will also integrate Hexagon’s build simulation capabilities into its AM-Studio software.
“This collaboration is a win for all the industry,” said Daniel Stadlmayr, Technical Director of CADS Additive. “We are pleased that Hexagon has chosen to implement our additive support technology in Simufact Additive. Having such accurate build simulation really helps manufacturers to get the best quality results from their printer and reduce failure, and we are pleased that we can offer our AM-Studio customers greater confidence before they commit to print.”
本周还看到了瑞典金属3D打印机制造商自由女神与工业，工程和技术解决方案专家合作etteplan共同开发Freemelt即将推出的工业3D打印机。通过他们的协议，两家公司正在寻求为全球制造公司提供3D打印能力，并加速向更可持续的产品和生产过渡。
“ Etteplan已将AM确定为未来最重要的技术之一，我们致力于继续在AM建立我们的能力，” Etteplan工程解决方案高级副总裁Riku Riikonen说。“与Freemelt建立密切合作伙伴关系为加深该地区知识的可能性开辟了可能性，并产生协同效应，有可能大大提高市场和我们普通客户的价值。”
汇总本周的合作新闻是医疗技术公司Axial3D和anatomical model manufacturerBiomodex。这两家公司聚集在一起，使Biomodex能够通过减少将2D医学图像转换为3D视觉效果所需的时间来加速3D印刷脑动脉瘤模型的生产。BioModex将利用Axial3D的AI驱动分段AS-A-ServicETM平台自动将2D医学图像在几分钟内将2D医学图像转换为3D视觉效果，从而使前者的3D印刷模型可以在几天之内制造并分布在其国际客户基础上。
“We are incredibly excited to be announcing this partnership with BIOMODEX,” said Roger Johnston, CEO of Axial3D. “Their market offerings are truly groundbreaking for the physicians and patients who benefit from them, and for Axial3D to be further able to fuel their global scaling and in parallel, transform the speed of delivery, providing a higher standard of care to aneurysm patients globally, is inspiring.”
Material updates from Desktop Metal and Rapid Shape
现在要进行物质新闻和工业3D打印机制造商桌面金属已合格在其上使用D2工具钢Production System platform, powered by the firm’s patent-pending Single Pass Jetting (SPJ) technology. D2 tool steel is a versatile high-carbon, high-chromium air-hardening tool steel that exhibits high hardness and compressive strenght after heat treatment. The material is also characterized by its high wear resistance properties, dimensional stability, and corrosion resistance.
With the new material qualification, companies can leverage SPJ technology to produce parts within high-strength and high-temperature applications, such as cold work metal forming tools, dies, and punches.
桌面金属has also unveiled a partnership with 3D printing materials developerUniformity Labs看到公司的资格并提供超low porosity binder jetting powders that exhibit “exceptional” sintered part density and mechanical properties. The partnership will leverage Desktop Metal’s high-speed binder jetting systems and processes with Uniformity Lab’s metal powder processing capabilities to enable businesses to adopt binder getting for the production of end-use metal parts at scale.
两家公司将共同努力，专门为桌面金属的生产系统，商店系统和Exone打印平台提供优化的粘合剂喷射粉末，并将发布各种材料的印刷配置文件，包括不锈钢，基于镍的超级合金以及反应性金属，例如铝。
Elsewhere,Rapid Shape和4D Biomaterialsare evaluating the first prototype medical devices made with the former’s 3D printers and the latter’s基于树脂的油墨，4Degra。4D生物材料的4Degra墨水基于专门的聚苯甲酸酯氨基烷化学化学，可以使用DLP技术打印，以创建精细详细的可植入医疗设备，以支持身体的自然愈合过程，然后再降解并无害地吸收到身体中。
“与4D生物材料合作为我们提供了机会，将我们的产品进一步扩展到医疗设备市场。”“ 4Degra代表了生物相容性材料的突破，与4D生物材料团队合作使我们能够成为患者护理方面真正创新的一部分。”
In other materials news, vacuum-bagging and tooling material manufacturerAirtech高级材料组has expanded its portfolio with a new line of Dahltram resins. Large-scale 3D printer supplierCEAD已有资格在其所有AM Flexbot平台上使用新的Airtech Dahtram树脂，该树脂将3D打印和铣削组合为一个自动制造和工具应用程序。
Finally,GE AdditivecompanyAP＆C已与空中客车公司签署了一项新的多年协议，以提供用于金属3D打印应用程序的钛粉末。AP＆C正在继续投资其等离子体雾化技术，该技术允许为航空航天等行业生产新材料。
“Our approach is to be more than just a supplier of metal powders to our customers,” said Alain Dupont, CEO at AP&C. “To scale metal additive manufacturing, acceleration can only be achieved by sharing knowledge best practice to lower risk and increase stability.
“One way we have supported Airbus in recent years, for example, has been to help its in-house additive manufacturing team establish its own methods and processes to qualify Ti-6Al-4V powders.”
DMC和桌面金属的商业新闻
现在转到与业务相关的新闻，以及DMC宣布将是英国第一个接送清洁和表面整理系统制造商的服务提供商Dyemansion’sPowerFuse的工业蒸气抛光系统。这Powerfuse S将显着提高DMC的聚合物表面饰面能力，从而使其能够提供具有注射型表面质量的密封零件。
有了最新的装置，DMC也已成为第一个利用DyeMansion的3D打印生产设施完整的参考体系结构, comprised of a Stratasys H350 3D printer and DyeMansion’s Powershot C, Powershot S, Powerfuse S, and DM60 systems.
Elsewhere, a formerExOne投资者已向公司及其收购方提起诉讼，声称这些公司在法庭假期期间急于关闭其5.75亿美元的合并，鉴于正在进行的举报人对“产品合规性和程序的持续调查”，该设施属于属于的“产品合规性和程序”桌面金属’s subsidiaryEnvisionTec。
这former investor claims that the ExOne shareholder vote to approve the merger was “not fully-informed”, as the investigation was not disclosed until the eve of the Special Meeting when the vote took place, and by when reportedly the “vast majority” of voting shareholders had already submitted their votes by proxy. According to the plaintiff, ExOne’s shareholders have been “directly harmed” through the conversion of their ExOne stock into Desktop Metal stock, as the company’s share price dropped after the “compliance issues” were publicly disclosed and the then-CEO of EnvisionTEC resigned.
桌面金属和Exone尚未对该西装发表评论，而3D印刷行业将密切关注案件的发展。
Stratasys hosts dreidel design competition
In other news, industrial 3D printer manufacturer Stratasys has teamed up with the YouDaica Jewish art team to host a dreidel design competition in honor of Hanukkah. Stratasys workers and their families submitted their designs, with the winning three designs to be 3D printed by the company. The winning designs were based on the city of Jerusalem, Earth and ballet.
AR meets laser sintering for future education
围捕本周的新闻更新是对未来教材的一项新颖提议，该材料利用了增强现实（AR）和3D打印的新建议。这Zurich University of Arts(ZHdK) is developing immersive teaching materials based on the technologies to enable students to gain a deeper understanding about the working methods of archaeology, among other subjects.
作为项目的一部分，SLS 3D打印机制造商Sintratec已经提供了考古发现的3D印刷复制品，以帮助学生了解Rchain Divider的遗物，可追溯到公元前400年。根据ZHDK的小组知识可视化研究助理Jonas Christen的说法，Sintratec的3D打印技术被证明是唯一能够创建真实生活的方法。
他说：“ 3D打印的重建是学生体验发现维度的视觉对象，但也可以为考古学家提供有关其可能使用的新见解。”
