https://cimquesttv.wistia.com/medias/p4uotsh9xe?embedType=async&videoFoam=true&videoWidth=640 Today we reverse engineer a broken BMW speaker frame through 3D scanning, and then print a new replacement part using our HP Jet Fusion 4200. The freeform shape of the frame proved to be a challenge but with the right tools, we were able to effectively reconstruct the part in CAD.
Additive Manufacturing of metals originated in the early 1990's through a process known as direct metal laser sintering. This process uses laser toolpaths to weld powdered metals into three dimensional parts. While effective, the technology has major barriers to entry due to the volatile nature of metal powders. These powders are reactive and can cause fires, requiring significant investments in infrastructure, including explosion proof rooms, respirators, and not to mention highly specialized operators. All of [...]

HP brings decades of experience in 2D printing and materials science to the 3D printing market. With the development and release of this platform, they seek to address the demands for increased speed, throughput, and productivity in additive manufacturing. The HP Jet Fusion 4200 is made up of the printer, build unit, and processing station. To begin, HP material cartridges are first inserted into the processing station. The station performs an automated mixing process, and [...]
Our 2017 Advanced Manufacturing Expo took place last week and it was a great two days. We had over 600 people (including vendors) attend from all different manufacturing sectors and some traveled from as far away as New Hampshire and Virginia. During the two-day event, attendees had the opportunity to talk to representatives from 30 different partner companies to learn about their latest and greatest products. They were able to choose from 26 presentations covering every aspect [...]
