FFF printing with up to seven nozzles

Liqtra GmbH is creating a new way to increase the productivity of the FFF printing process without higher speeds or nozzle diameters with the introduction of its latest 3D printer with multi-nozzle technology.

Nine lasers for large metal parts

At Formnext 2022, Eplus3D will showcase its EP-M260 metal 3D printer, an industrial 3D printer with MPBF technology. Eplus3D also unveiled its EP-M1250 large-format multilaser machine for metal additive manufacturing on 1 November. The company says the new machine, which has a build envelope of 1258x1258x1350 mm3 and nine laser systems, will greatly facilitate the development of metal parts several metres in size.

LIS technology for the "Queen of Ceramics".

At Formnext, Lithoz GmbH presents concrete answers to how 3D printing will disruptively change the ceramic industry. Among other things, the Austrian company with around 125 employees is showing a bioresorbable ceramic material for patient-specific bone implants for the first time.

Fast and precise coating

The "Dynamic Material Deposition (DMD)" process developed by Ponticon can deposit metallic materials onto metallic or ceramic components. In contrast to traditional laser build-up welding, the metallic powder is already melted in a laser beam before it hits the surface of the substrate layer by layer.

Faster than PBF, more accurate than DED

With the GMP300, Grob is presenting its Liquid Metal Printing (LMP) for the production of near-net-shape components for the first time. According to the manufacturer, the machine offers reliable, efficient and cost-conscious system technology with maximum production flexibility for one-off and small batch production.
