Indaver and INEOS Styrolution: project to demonstrate production of ABS plastic from recycled feedstock receives funding by the European Union

Indaver, a leader in sustainable waste management, and INEOS Styrolution, global leader in styrenics, are set to team up as technology partners in a project funded by the EU LIFE programme, the European Union’s funding instrument for the environment and resource efficiency. The project, which is planned for a duration of four years, will demonstrate the production of ABS[1] based on recycled feedstock.

SLM Solutions manufactures Porsche drive housing on the NXG XII 600

Has metal-based 3D printing arrived in the manufacturing industry and is SLM® technology ready for series production? What does it take to make the leap to industrialisation? With the most recently introduced SLM® machine NXG XII 600, SLM Solutions provides answers to these questions. The machine sets new milestones in terms of productivity, installation space, reliability and safety and paves the way for the future of additive manufacturing. Now SLM Solutions is presenting application examples manufactured on the NXG XII 600. These demonstrate not only the productivity and speed of the machine, but also the impressive reduction in cost per part.

Stratasys enhances digital anatomy 3D printer

3D printing leader Stratasys Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSYS) has enhanced its J750 Digital Anatomy™ 3D printer with advanced bone capabilities that don’t just look real but are actually biomechanically realistic, backed by clinical research. The software upgrade enables the systems to mimic porous bone structures, fibrotic tissue, and ligaments so medical professionals can create models that behave just like human bone.

Flame-resistant 3D printed plastics for applications in rail vehicles tested according to EN 45545

The use of plastics in rail vehicles has been state of the art for many years. Here too, 3D printing is becoming increasingly important for component production. 3D-printed plastic components are used for both the exterior and interior of rail vehicles. In addition to its use in new vehicles, additive manufacturing also plays its strengths in the production of spare parts. Here, components can be produced cost-effectively in small and medium quantities, and in some cases only 3D printing makes it possible to replace components.
