Nexa3D and Henkel launch new ABS resin for SLA 3D printing

Nexa3D,总部位于加利福尼亚的SLA 3D打印机制造商,宣布它正在与领先的全球化学公司合作Henkel为了开发一系列共同品牌的光聚合物SLA树脂,该树脂将通过Nexa3D的全球渠道分布。

Through the newly established partnership, Nexa3D has now joined Henkel’s open platform of material partners. Both companies aim to leverage their respective expertise in SLA 3D printing technology and performance resins to create functional parts using Henkel’s materials on the NXE400 3D printer. Their first material, optimized for the NXE400, is an ABS 3D printing resin developed with Henkel’s Loctite material technology.

“Partnering with a great global powerhouse of the caliber of Henkel represents orders of magnitude of progress in our collective abilities to deliver additive manufacturing solutions that push the boundaries of what’s possible with 3D printing for manufacturing,” comments Avi Reichental, Co-founder and CEO of Nexa3D.

“我们非常期待与Henkel建立长期而繁荣的关系,使工业规模的3D印刷为世界各地的制造商成为现实。”

Henkel的3D印刷行业合作伙伴关系

Henkel成立于1876年,已成长为活跃于消费者和工业部门的跨国化学公司。它负责开发诸如Sellotape和Loctite之类的全球粘合剂品牌,2016年,该公司进入了3D打印材料市场。此后,该公司还在爱尔兰开设了700平方米的数百万欧元设施,以开发新的高级添加剂材料。

Since then, Henkel has continued to expand its partnerships and foothold within the 3D printing industry. This includes its partnership with Californian 3D printing startup起源签署2019年2月;此后,这些公司开发了一个新的fire-resistant photopolymer兼容的with the原点一个3D打印机。

Additionally, Henkel has also launched its open materials platform for manufacturers of 3D printers, allowing companies to qualify Henkel’s materials with their different additive manufacturing technologies.

Nexa 3D sought to partner with Henkel due to its track record of developing a variety of materials that overcome the hurdles of conventional photopolymer resins used in 3D printing. As such, Nexa3D is now providing a new 3843-xABS Black material based on Henkel’s Loctite line of materials. 3843-xABS Black is designed to have high flexural and tensile physical properties, alongside high green strength and heat deflection temperature.

该材料旨在用于多种应用,包括用于机器人和自动化机械的机械组件,支架,杠杆和武器,用于制造站,以及运输车辆的零件和组件。

Additionally, the two firms are planning to optimize Henkel’s portfolio of 3D printing resins to Nexa3D’s NXE4003D printer, in order to enable the creation of functional parts across a wider range of applications.

“We are pleased to partner with Nexa3D as our Loctite Industrial Product portfolio of PhotoPlastic and PhotoElastic materials are well suited for the high throughput of the NXE400 system,” explains Simon Mawson, Ph.D. Head of Additive Manufacturing at Henkel. “The Nexa 3D team has a proven track record of delivering robust solutions and I am confident our combined partnership will deliver the production tools, materials, and flexibility the industry demands.”

NEXA3D的全球经销商网络

Nexa3D’sNXE400 SLA 3D printer被引入Rapid + TCT 2019。Describing the system, Reichental, who was appointed permanentNexa3d的首席执行官in August 2019, stated that “This technology completely blows off the doors for what’s possible in terms of speed and size, and will unleash whole new levels of productivity and optionality for end-users.”

International Dental Show(IDS) 2019 in Cologne, Nexa3D also unveiled another new SLA system, theVarseo XL,专门为牙科行业开发。该公司与德国牙科设备制造商一起工作贝戈to make the system compatible with BEGO’s full range of dental resins.

Additionally, Nexa3D has recently been expanding its global reseller network. Towards the end of 2019, it partnered withTWeatherford Inc。(TWI), an additive manufacturing solutions provider headquartered in Indiana, to sell its中西部的系统。This was preceded by partnerships with resellers in the UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Russia as part of its欧洲扩张, and withBruléin Japan.
