Second Annual 3D Printed Ornament Challenge
This holiday season marks our second annual 3D printed ornament challenge. We had so much fun running this competition last year that we couldn’t resist doing it again. So once again, we will be hosting a fun competition to get your creative juices flowing. We challenge you to design your own 3D printable ornament for a chance to win some great prizes. Tis the season to give your friends, family and loved ones a meaningful gift and what could be better than a gift that you designed? This is your chance to create something unique and, if you win, you will get your special ornament printed and delivered right to your door for free. In addition to receiving their unique 3D-printed ornament, the grand prize winner will also get a Bose SoundLink® Mini Bluetooth® speaker! The first runner-up will receive a $100 Amazon Gift Card and the 2nd & 3rd place winners will receive $50 Amazon Gift Cards. All you need to do is get designing. Get creative. Use your favorite tradition as inspiration and create an ornament that is fun, festive, and unique to you! Cimquest will use an internal vote to narrow the field down to 5 ornaments. The top 5 [...]
Airbus Standardizes on Stratasys
Stratasys has announced that leading aircraft manufacturer Airbus is standardizing on ULTEM™ 9085 3D printing material for the production of flight parts for its A350 XWB aircraft. Stratasys’ ULTEM™ 9085 resin is certified to an Airbus material specification and is used in Stratasys’ FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) -based additive manufacturing solutions. By combining a high strength-to-weight ratio with FST (flame, smoke, and toxicity) compliance for aircraft flight parts, ULTEM 9085 enables the production of strong, lighter weight parts while substantially lowering manufacturing costs and production time. “In 2014, Airbus produced a significant amount of parts on its Stratasys FDM-based 3D Printers for use in new A350 XWB aircraft, enabling Airbus to meet delivery commitments on-time. We are pleased to support Airbus as they industrialize the inclusion of Stratasys 3D printed parts in the A350 XWB production supply chain, ensuring that suppliers will be able to support continued scheduled aircraft deliveries,” said Andy Middleton, President, Stratasys EMEA.

Students Build Lighter, Faster Formula SAE Competition Cars
What’s in your toolbox? For Cyclone Racing, an automotive racing team from Iowa State University (ISU), it’s 3D printing. These students are discovering the benefits of additive manufacturing while having fun competing in the famous Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) International Formula car competition. In the Formula SAE competition, students are instructed to design, build and then test their open-wheel racecar, which will then be raced against other collegiate teams. Students 3D printed the intake assembly with the throttle cable directly on top of it. ISU student competitors are pushing the limits of collegiate racing by making the manufacturing process a whole lot simpler. This year it means that the Iowa team created their best Cyclone yet – the CR-21 – using design for 3D printing. A Stratasys Fortus 450mc 3D Printer with ULTEM1010 3D printing material was chosen; ULTEM1010 especially for its thermal and chemical properties and superior strength. So, what did students consider before 3D printing? What will the complexity of the car be? What will the optimal weight be? What types of force will act upon it? With these criteria taken into consideration, the students decided to 3D print three components for the Cyclone racer: the intake, the [...]
