Raises productivity in wide range of applications, including part manufacturing and build-up repair

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that it has developed a unique dot forming technology that realizes high-precision shaping by combining laser, computer numerical control (CNC) and computer aided manufacturing CAM technologies in 3D printers. The technology produces high-quality three-dimensional (3D) parts with few voids at high speed, employing a laser wire directed-energy deposition (DED) method, which is an additive-manufacturing process that uses focused thermal energy to fuse materials as they are deposited. Mitsubishi Electric believes that its new technology will raise productivity in a wide range of applications, such as the "near-net" (near-final) shaping of aircraft and automobile parts and build-up repairs.

And if innovation is its DNA from its establishment, Weerg - new platform that offers online CNC manufacturing and 3D printing - confirms the trend of exponential growth by announcing the imminent relocation to a new facility that triples the area dedicated to production. Faithful to its Venetian origins, the company will move to its new headquarters in Gardigiano around the turn of October and November.

This month’s TCT Show (25th-27th September, NEC Birmingham) attendees, will see Stratasys highlight its ongoing commitment to advancing additive manufacturing solutions for composites, delivering an insightful keynote session on the TCT Show Introducing Stage, while valued Stratasys partner, Siemens Digital Factory Division, will present a high-level, main stage keynote as part of the TCT Show Conference agenda. Stratasys will also showcase its affordable Fortus 380 Carbon Fiber Edition in its stand for the first time in Europe, with live demos for delegates, as well as displaying a diverse range of additive manufacturing solutions to help customers large and small to verify designs, achieve time-to-market goals and utilise greater design freedom.
