6K Additive’s Nickel 625 powder is being qualified for use in Agile’s A2200 engine to leverage additive manufacturing for engine lightweighting while also delivering tremendous power.
Formnext 2024: The system offers a build speed of up to 150 layers per hour and layer thickness of 20–200 µm.
Brooks Crownhill Limited has used Voxeljet’s sand 3D printers to rapidly prototype automobile part molds, with the increased design flexibility enabling lightweighting while strengthening individual components.
Generative design creates stiff, lightweight brackets for EXCITE mission monitoring planets orbiting other stars. The Cool Parts Show visits Goddard Space Flight Center.
The company says an innovative design and manufacturing of shorter, lighter turbine rear structure can contribute to lower carbon emissions.
The Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS) is a fully integrated software and hardware solution, creating a complete modular digital factory that combines AI-optimized generative design software, additive manufacturing and automated assembly to build lightweight automotive parts and frames.
NASA’s RAMFIRE project has additively manufactured a 36-inch diameter aerospike nozzle with complex integral coolant channels for a more efficient way to propel rockets to outer space. NASA engineers will use this as a proof of concept to inform future component designs.
The BMW Group is manufacturing many work aids and tools for its own production system using various 3D printing processes, with items such as tailor-made orthoses for employees, teaching and production aids, and large, weight-optimized robot grippers, which are used for such things as carbon fiber-reinforced polymer roofs and entire floor assemblies.
