2023-10-28 22:01:42

Good Sunday to all ! We are delighted to have you back for our new selection of the 5 best videos from the world of 3D printing. We begin with a touching Halloween initiative at a children’s hospital, where 3D printing brings a special touch to the holiday. Then, head to NASA’s Langley Research Center for an overview of advances in their additive manufacturing center. Afterwards, immerse yourself in the world of TRUMPF and its innovations in LMF and LMD 3D printing. Carbon then reveals the new features of its Print OS 1.40, promising advances in speed and efficiency. Finally, share a moment with Robert Murray-Smith for a steampunk exploration of gear-centric 3D printing. Prepare to be inspired. Good discovery !

Top 1: Dive into the Heart of NASA’s Additive Manufacturing Center: Embark on a journey behind the scenes of aerospace innovation. In this video, NASA provides an overview of Advanced Manufacturing Building 1232a at NASA Langley Research Center. Discover how, thanks to cutting-edge 3D technology, metal and composite parts are created for cutting-edge testing. Admire Isaac, the sophisticated robot, as he transforms spools of composite tape into strong, lightweight structures with incredible precision. And don’t miss the spectacle of the EBF-3, sculpting metal parts layer by layer with an electron beam. A total immersion in the future of aeronautical construction!

Top 2: Halloween in Westchester, 3D printing for sick children: In the halls of Westchester Children’s Hospital, the spirit of Halloween comes to life in an unexpected way. Thanks to the magic of 3D printing, these young patients experience moments of joy, even far from home. From perfectly carved pumpkins to ephemeral ghost races, discover how technology puts smiles and happiness at the service of children, giving them a Halloween party they will never forget.

Top 3: Discovery of TRUMPF printers: Immerse yourself in the innovative world of TRUMPF, a leader in additive manufacturing, focused on laser metal fusion and deposition. This video will introduce you to the company’s flagship machines, including the TruPrint 1000, 2000, 3000 series and the eco-friendly TruPrint 5000 – Green Edition. You’ll also get a glimpse of the impressive capabilities of the TruLaser Cell 3000 and 7040, designed specifically for high-speed RPDS production.

Top 4: Carbon unveils OS 1.40, the latest software development for its 3D printers: Explore Carbon’s Print OS 1.40 update, a watershed moment for the M3, M3 Max, and L1 3D printer models. This improvement, incorporating force feedback technology, increases the printing speed of rigid parts by 25% and that of elastomers by 50%. Some users will even see their speed multiplied by four. The goal: increased efficiency, predictability and profitability. Discover feedback and practical cases in this video.

Top 5: Robert Murray-Smith creates a pencil sharpener using 3D printing: In this new episode of “Thinking ‘n’ Tinkering”, Robert Murray-Smith takes us through the evolution and central role of gears throughout history. He then guides us into the world of 3D design with Tinker Cad to create perfectly sized gears. Combining the ingenious wisdom of the past with the cutting edge of 3D printing, this tutorial allows us to create a unique and functional pencil sharpener. An ideal project to make yourself or to give as a gift.
