Almost at Pre-Pandemic Levels

The pathways to plastics can be many – even metalworking in the case of AIM3D. That is what first got this start-up up and running. Fast forward to now and the young Rostock company can cover both bases.

Versatile: the 3D printer developed by this young company can process virtually all fusible materials.

“Everything Is Aimed at  Series Production”

Arburg Plastic Freeforming is predestined for the additive manufacturing of medtech components. The associated Freeformer-type additive manufacturing systems process the same plastic pellets that are used in injection molding. That makes the open systems very economical to use.

In the AKF process, resorbable original materials such a plate-implants similar to bone, can be manufactured. They are gradually replaced by endogenous tissue

New Possibilities for Use  in the Human Body

3D printing is a fast-growing market, opening up completely new product and manufacturing options for customers and industry. The newly developed SEAM process significantly extends the options for the efficient manufacture of printed components. An impression of this is conveyed by the example of a fiber-reinforced clamping fixture.

KraussMaffei at Formnext for the First Time

We have something to add. With this slogan, KraussMaffei is presenting newly developed solutions for additive manufacturing on an industrial scale for the first time at formnext, the international industry trade show for additive production technologies.

KraussMaffei presented its new systems for additive manufacturing to the public for the first time at K 2022. For all those who were unable to attend in Düsseldorf, there will be another opportunity in November. The company will celebrate its premiere as an exhibitor at Formnext.

KraussMaffei is a worldwide leader in plastics processing as an innovative technology partner for injection molding, extrusion technology and reaction technology. „With additive manufacturing as the fourth technology, we create new opportunities both for established plastics processors and for companies that see their core competence in additive manufacturing and want to take a step towards industrial production of plastic parts,“ explains Rolf Mack, Head of Additive Manufacturing at KraussMaffei. With this fourth technology, KraussMaffei has another production process at its disposal so that it can offer its customers the best possible solution depending on their needs and requirements.

The new powerPrint and precisionPrint products combine innovative technologies with longtime expertise from injection molding and extrusion technology and thus open up new application fields in the industry. „At formnext, we will demonstrate how intelligent end-to-end system concepts make it possible for our customers to scale additive manufacturing,“ explains Mack.

powerPrint is an extruder-based system for processing thermoplastic granulate. It prints large-size components with volume up to 10 m3 to industrial standards. Optimal component properties are achieved at affordable material costs. In addition, short set-up times and the use of common software solutions for print preparation enable fast implementation from component design to print. High output capacity at fast print speeds ensures short throughput times of large components. PowerPrint benefits from KraussMaffei’s many years of expertise in plastic and extrusion to achieve the best possible printing results. This offers various industries new opportunities for efficient production of near net shape components. Typical application fields include moldmaking, prototype construction and manufacturing of elements in furniture construction as well as customized solutions for the water and supply infrastructure. In the foundry industry as well, fast, cost-effective manufacturing of molds with 3D printing models boosts productivity.

precisionPrint is a high-performance stereolithography solution. The highly automated system offers cost-effective production of components with the most stringent requirements for surface quality and detail resolution on an industrial scale. An innovative laser system and the sophisticated end-to-end system concept enable the series production of AM components at the lowest costs. The printer is ideal for short-run printing in the electrical and electronics industry, for example connectors or customized solutions with highest precision. The latter offer great added value among others in the medical industry, for example, for printing hearing aids, or in the sports and leisure area.
