Formnext is a leading global trade fair event for Additive Manufacturing (AM). Organized in Frankfurt yearly, with more than 600 exhibitors, 26000 visitors of which 49% are international visitors – formnext acts as a hub of information for the AM world. During the fair, the big AM players show evolution in AM field, latest trends, and their innovative solutions to complex problems. In addition to the industrial leaders, Formnext also gives an opportunity to several young, innovative startups to demonstrate their solution’s uniqueness by competing in Formnext’s Startup Challenge.

At the K2019 International Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber, the Munich-based chemical group WACKER is unveiling a newly developed version of its pioneering ACEO® 3D printing technology with silicone rubber – and is thereby setting new benchmarks. The new ACEO® Imagine Series K2 features numerous technical improvements and new software, allowing three-dimensional objects to be reproduced even more precisely and with extremely high dimensional accuracy. Moreover, the new printer can print up to four different silicone materials simultaneously, allowing objects to be printed in color and with silicones of different hardness. Visitors to this year’s K show can experience the fascinating potential of the new printing technology at the WACKER booth in Hall 6. K 2019 takes place in Düsseldorf, Germany, from October 16 to 23.

It is often difficult to achieve good results in rubber processing with 3D printers, the needs of this material may require special technical characteristics and many manufacturers of machines and compounds do not invest enough in research because the industrial rubber market is perceived as not rich enough.

The versatility of 3D printing subverts production and prototyping cycles and reduces time to market with an ever-higher quality of parts.

As evidenced by Unitekno (AKWA brand), an Italian company specializing in the development of products for home and personal care, which has chosen the 3Ntr 3D A2v2 3-engine printer to accelerate production thanks to the development of plastic prototypes high-performing.
