Würth Additive Group’s Post

🍂 Autumn is the season of harvest, and it's time to share a couple of highlights from the busy summer season. First and foremost, I'm proud to have participated in a major industry exhibition with our large booth! A huge thank you to my marketing team for their hard work and seamless collaboration during the event’s organization—it was their first exhibition, and they did an amazing job. What stood out for me was the packed program, filled with expert panels on all things additive manufacturing. I had the privilege of speaking at one of these panels, where I emphasized the importance of taking a holistic approach when choosing software for additive manufacturing. 🌟 Here's a key takeaway: Buying a 3D printer with pre-installed software is just the beginning. Imagine trying to assemble a complex piece of machinery without the right tools—sure, you can try, but the result won’t be optimal. The same goes for additive manufacturing: to achieve perfect results, you need a complete system that not only helps you design parts tailored to the printing technology but also eliminates the side effects of the process. Having the right software ecosystem is what truly makes the difference between just printing and creating high-performance parts. I’m excited for what’s to come and grateful to everyone who made this event a success! 🙌 #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting #IndustryEvents #Teamwork #ManufacturingInnovation

🌲🔧 If you are in the bush and only have pliers, steel wire, some rope and duct tape, you don't have too many options to solve a problem/sticky situation! 🎲 On the other hand, you can have all the tools and resources at your disposal, and an abundance of choices available. This can make you feel overwhelmed by the array of options, leading to indecision and a lack of progress. So, is there a middle ground? Maybe. Great solutions to big problems are not always what they seem, and not always that obvious in the beginning. If you "tune" yourself to always be open and on the lookout for great solutions and or opportunities. It becomes easier to solve the problem you have and might be a new way of doing the same old thing! The success in 3D printing is not just the tool itself, it's a whole mind-shift on getting a solution for the problem you have. There are so many manufacturing techniques in today's world, not just basic blacksmithing like the Knights had. Don't get left behind in the bush with your pliers and duct tape! Equip yourself today with the right mindset (and tools) to find solutions to your and your customer's problems. I don't say you have to buy a #HYRAX metal 3D printer from Aditiv Solutions, but I am convinced it will set you up for greatness in the future! 💡 #ProblemSolving #Resourcefulness #Innovation #DecisionMaking #MiddleGround #OpenMindedness #Opportunities #MindShift #ManufacturingTechniques #Adaptability #SolutionFocused #CustomerSolutions #MindsetMatters #ToolsOfSuccess #FutureReady #Metal3DPrinting #AditivSolutions #HYRAX #GreatnessAhead

Small-Scale Prints by Printera: Adding Color to 3DCP 3D concrete printing (3DCP) isn’t just for building houses, and it doesn’t have to stick to plain grey or white designs. Printera is leading the way in showcasing the versatility of 3DCP with their vibrant, small-scale prints. These projects highlight the creative potential of concrete printing, expanding beyond traditional expectations of the technology. Printera has also launched a round of investment on StartEngine.

We don't think many of our followers play the banjo, but we do know that many of you: - are concerned about the cost of tooling. - want to know if AM can deliver the surface finish you need. - would like to launch a product into a niche market. - have a great idea/invention and want to make it a reality. Our latest episode of The Cool Parts Show features a 3D printed banjo capo. But, the episode also dives into why the company behind it opted for additive manufacturing over metal injection molding. Get the full story (and how it addresses those 4 points above) here: https://lnkd.in/ggSQ5BSH _____ Bryan Paige | Paige Musical Products #coolparts #TheCoolPartsShow

Great summary of the process

Key benefits that make Mars01 a favorite: ✅ Reach tight spaces and detailed structures with manual control. ✅ Large viewing window and LED lighting make it easy to monitor every detail. ✅ Manual rotary table, heavy-duty gloves, and blow-off gun give you total control for custom cleaning. ✅ Explosion-proof and equipped with dust extraction for a safe workspace. Catch Mars01 in action at Formnext, Hall 12.0 - C79 and discover how it can streamline your post-processing workflow and enhance the quality of your 3D printed parts. #mars01 #depowdering #additivemanufacturing #formnext #3dprinting #industrialsolutions #precisioncleaning #addiblast

Additive Manufacturing in Traditional Machine Shops: As a former Hollywood machinist, I was once tasked with machining a torch for the show America's Got Talent. While creating the design, I quickly realized that machining the intricate details would be extremely time-consuming and require numerous iterations. Drawing on my experience working with EOS and Stratasys machines, I suggested to the producers that we 3D print the design instead. They took a chance, and the results were impressive: a clean product with a fast turnaround time that was both cost and time efficient. This project was a powerful reminder that there is a time and place for every process. By leveraging additive manufacturing, we not only met the production schedule but also delivered a high-quality product. It's a prime example of how integrating new technologies can optimize efficiency and outcomes. #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting #Innovation #Manufacturing #Hollywood #Efficiency #TechInManufacturing

According to Mario Dimovski, collision repair "is at the cusp of a revolution," and one of the most exciting developments in the industry is #3Dprinting, which can help increase the volume, reduce the cost, and shorten the cycle time of repairs. But, the establishment of industry-wide standards for #3Dprinted parts and materials used in collision repair is critical.

Dad, my downhill helmet missing the sunshade, can you do something for it? Well....we have to precisely 3d scan it and then, by surface modelling we have to find the geometry which covers nicely your helmet, this needs some painful work, but of course I will do it. Then we have to align it with our plastic printer and then print with glass filled nylon..... Without #FLONO this would took weeks. The same applies for your spare parts which you may got several months of delivery time, so reach us in such case at [email protected] #3dprinting #3dmodelling #spareparts #CAD
