西门子和Roboze联队加速了3D印刷的工业化

工业制造公司Siemensand industrial-grade 3D printer manufacturer机器人have entered into a partnership to develop complete workflows for the industrialization of 3D printing.

The partnership will see the two firms combine their respective expertise to increase the production opportunities for companies operating within the energy, mobility, and aerospace sectors through a raft of digitalization and automation projects.

西门子添加剂制造业经理蒂姆·贝尔(Tim Bell)表示:“我们已经走上了一条途径,使我们在机器人方面带领我们领先,以提高全球制造公司的生产能力。”“我们已经经历了Roboze的3D印刷的潜力,以至于我们选择将其Argo 500实施到我们的流程中。

“我很高兴能成为该项目的一部分,因为我看到了制造业未来的足够战略机会。”

机器人’s ARGO 500 and super-polymers

Launched at Formnext in 2017, 这Argo 500是Roboze的高性能FFF机器,专门针对工业,航空和汽车行业的高端成品3D打印零件的生产。

The machine’s high precision and reliability, even when fabricating parts made of super-polymers and composite materials, has seen it be deployed by numerous partners for a wide range of applications. For instance, the printer has been used by theUniversity of Delawareto facilitateresearch of high-temperature composite 3D printingin partnership with the US Army.

Roboze还开发了自己的一系列超刚性热塑性塑料,称为超级聚合物,其中最新的是2月推出的名称Helios PEEK 2005。陶瓷纤维增强的灯丝加入了公司现有的范围Carbon PEEK,,,,Carbon PA,,,,PEEK,,,,andULTEM AM9085Fmaterials which continue to find new use cases.

例如,Roboze的超级聚合物已被利用用于要求的最终用途应用,例如充满碳纤维的PEEK航空航天零件by Italian defense contractorLeonardo, 这University of Colorado Boulder’snew超耐用立方体,并优化了杜卡迪LenovoMotoGPteam’sDesmosedici GP motorbike

Industrializing additive manufacturing

西门子数字工业长期以来一直处于铺平工业制造业中自动化和数字化的道路的最前沿,与3D印刷公司建立了许多合作伙伴关系,以帮助他们提高生产率和灵活性。2020年,该公司开设了高级制造转型中心(AMTC)在新加坡,该地区的客户过渡到工业3D打印和行业4.0。

在其他地方,后处理专家染色整合了公司的自动化技术into its Powerfuse S vapor polishing system, while German car manufacturerVolkswagen有entered into a software partnership with Siemens toincrease the productivity of its binder jet manufacturing process。SLA 3D打印机制造商Nexa3D有also previously配备了量子激光烧结(QLS)系统with Siemens’ suite of enhanced automation software.

In its latest partnership, Siemens is combining its digitalization expertise with Roboze’s industrial 3D printing hardware and super-polymers offering to create complete workflows for industrial 3D printing. The workflows will be designed to increase the productivity, competitiveness and efficiency of manufacturing customers within the energy, mobility and aerospace sectors.

The two companies will embark upon multiple digitalization and automation projects to address current challenges to industrial additive manufacturing, and will also seek out new opportunities to generate success for customers in their pursuit of scalable digital manufacturing.

As part of the agreement, Siemens has installed a Roboxe ARGO 500 industrial 3D printer at its Charlotte Advanced Technology Collaboration Hub (CATCH) that it says will help to further industrialize additive manufacturing in the US.

“我们很高兴宣布与西门子建立新的合作伙伴关系,这实际上代表了我们战略的又一步,即更接近我们多年来服务的行业,例如能源,流动性和航空航天,”商业副总裁Francesco Pantaleone说。在Roboze开发。

“For us, Siemens is an ideal partner to be even more present in these innovative sectors that want to start strategic digital transformation paths.”
