| As the grand finale of this year's global TCT exhibition plan, the additive manufacturing event formnextpoweredbyTCT recently grand opening in Frankfurt, 470 companies gathered in Frankfurt, at the same time as EOS, SLMSolutions, Siemens, Tomokazan and other global leader in additive manufacturing 'home' The large exhibition space, colorful events and their latest products starting at formnext showcase Germany's strength as an Additive Manufacturing Development Center.  EOS nylon series P500 first EOS, the German industrial 3D printer manufacturer, pioneered the P500 laser sintering system - a new polymer additive manufacturing line that meets the needs of customers who want to add additive manufacturing to large-scale production of high-quality polymer parts . According to reports, P500 includes four modules, as well as an external station, in order to achieve the automatic transfer between jobs.Its internal modular design to be used in the machine for future innovation, including the addition of a third laser and larger build board. The new P500 achieves double the production yield compared to EOS's existing laser sintering system P396, while reducing the cost per component by 30%. To keep up with industry trends, the EOSP500 system will allow external partners and research institutes To develop high-performance polymers for their research and development focused on 3D printed materials at 300 degrees Celsius. BASF presents a full range of materials for additive manufacturing BASF, the world's leading chemical company, exhibited for the first time independent formnext, demonstrating its ambitions for additive manufacturing, from wire rod to powder and photosensitive resin, to BASF's product line that completely covers the plastic needs of the additive manufacturing industry. General Electric introduced the first additive manufacturing equipment On the first day of the show, Mohammad Ehteshami, GEAdditive's vice president, unveiled the first laser powder 3D printer (BETA model) as the ATLAS (Additive Technology Family Air System) series, developed jointly by GE Additive and ConceptLaser to provide large component manufacturers with more Expanded solutions and can be configured and customized for specific industry applications. ATLAS, GEAdditive's project to develop the next generation of large additive manufacturing equipment, was developed in just nine months and complements the company's existing product portfolio with a huge build of 1 cubic meter The volume (1.1x1.1x0.3m) enables the highly scalable and highly customizable geometry to suit the needs of customers with at least the same feature resolution and build speed as current laser powder 3D printers, and will be compatible with a range of different Materials, including non-reactive and reactive metals such as aluminum and titanium. 'The machine will 3D print aeronautical parts with a diameter of one meter, making it suitable for the construction of jet engine components and parts for single-aisle aircraft,' GE Additive explains. 'The machine can also be used in the automotive, power, oil and gas industries.' At present, the BETA model is being evaluated in the test, the finished product is estimated to be delivered in 2018. TCT Asia brings the successful experience and cutting-edge technologies of TCT Group to China. The exhibition area in 2017 increased 57% over the previous year, attracting 151 well-known enterprises and 12,641 domestic and overseas audiences. At the same time, TCT Asia Summit held 45 A famous guest speaker shared the theme and gathered 1177 delegates. |
