Oak Ridge National Laboratory to Advance Liquid Metal Additive Manufacturing with Xerox® ElemX™ 3D printer

On the heels of Vertex Manufacturing, the next research institute that will explore the capabilities of Xerox® ElemX™ 3D metal printer is the Department of Energy's Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).    As...

Xerox sells Elem Additive Solutions business to ADDiTEC

Just like we saw Local Motors rise in a certain way from its ashes, Xerox 3D printing business resurrects through an acquisition of ADDiTEC. While the financial terms around this transaction are undisclosed, the...

A lot happened since AMUG closed the doors of its 2023 edition

AMUG may have closed the doors of its 2023 edition in March, but the organizing team is working hard throughout the year to deliver an event that is worth of the AM industry. Since March,...

An OpeN-AM experimental platform enables to study the microscopic behavior of additive metal welds as they’re being created

The experimental platform system is called OpeN-AM, with OpeN being short for operando neutrons, a term for using neutrons to study something while it’s operating, and AM for additive manufacturing. Researchers at the Department of...

GKN Aerospace and Northrop Grumman achieve their largest Titanium 3D Printed Aerostructure Component

Imagine a component that measures 8 feet (2.5 meters) and processed from approximately 100 pounds (45 kg) of titanium. This is exactly the type of additive manufacturing production I would like to see by...

New 3D Printed Nuclear Component is in Operation. Installed by Framatome at Forsmark Nuclear Power Plant

Designer and supplier of nuclear equipment Framatome first appeared on our radar two years ago. It had just 3D printed uranium-molybdenum and uranium-silicon objects. Fast forward to today: the company announces the successful installation...

AM Materials: IperionX produces low-carbon spherical titanium from Tennessee minerals

Materials producer IperionX Limited is on a mission to scaling Titanium production for additive manufacturing with 100% recycled titanium metal as feedstock. For the US-based manufacturer, one way to achieve that is to rely...

polySpectra and Fortify receive a funding of $3 Million to Advance 3D Printed Tooling

With a focus on automotive, the proposed work will address the critical need to develop improved methods for commercial vehicle part production. The project also features significant efforts to amplify underrepresented groups in the...

How Orbital Composites’ technology solution could deliver on 3D printing promise for robotic automation

Even though there is currently a broader use of composite materials in sectors like the automotive due to the desirable combination of low weight and high strength properties, those materials have long been used...

ORNL equips TVA Browns Ferry nuclear plant with 3D printed nuclear reactor components

“This project provides the foundation for designing and manufacturing a variety of 3D-printed parts that will contribute to creating a clean energy future”, John Strumpell, manager of North America Fuel R&D at Framatome. As far...
