A new partnership between Comau and Roboze aims to transform advanced manufacturing by combining automation and 3D printing for more agile, efficient, and sustainable production.

Faster, more precise, more versatile: Speedpart is expanding its 3D printing portfolio with the Multi Jet Fusion process and setting new standards in additive manufacturing.

A breakthrough in personalised cycling has earned Fizik top honours at the 2025 Eurobike Awards. The company’s One-to-One custom saddle program, developed with Gebiomized and powered by Carbon’s 3D printing technology, won Gold in the Components category for its innovative approach to rider-specific comfort and performance.

Lego’s new Holiday Express Train hides a historic innovation: the first-ever 3D-printed element in a retail Lego set — a tiny blue locomotive that signals a new era in brick design.

With HCL CAM Works 2025, HCL Software extends its CAM portfolio into the 3D Experience Solidworks environment. The new release connects CAM programming, data management and collaboration in the cloud, while enhanced machine-aware functions bring CNC simulation directly into the programming workflow.

With its AM Europe Manifesto, Cecimo presents a strategic vision to position Europe as a global leader in additive manufacturing. The document calls for a coordinated EU strategy, stronger public-private partnerships, and targeted investment in skills, innovation, and industrial resilience to unlock the full potential of 3D printing technologies.

3D-printed, conformally cooled tool inserts significantly reduce cycle times and boost component quality. Speedpart demonstrates how additive and hybrid manufacturing open up new design freedom in toolmaking — from individual inserts to complete mould construction.

BMW is expanding its use of 3D printing in production, deploying lightweight, custom robot grippers and sand casting moulds to boost efficiency, cut emissions, and enable more flexible, automated manufacturing across its global plants.

The ability to accept orders flexibly is what makes Millcraft 3D competitive. To achieve this, the model and mould maker relies on F. Zimmermann. The latest addition to its machine park is an FZU32 gantry milling machine, whose precision goes far beyond the market standard.

As it embarks on its busiest exhibition programme to date, Carfulan Group will use Southern Manufacturing to showcase a broad portfolio of advanced production and metrology technologies. The highlight is the first public showing of OGP UK’s smart scope M7, alongside live demonstrations spanning additive manufacturing, optical measurement, tool presetting and data-driven production workflows.
