GF Machining Solutions has launched a new version of a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software, Laser CAM, part of the Laser Suite 360 software package.

At the Moulding Expo, Sigma Engineering presents the simulation-based design of tempering systems using Sigmasoft. In collaboration with /H&B/ Electronic, conventional cooling is compared with conformal cooling. Additionally, optimised cooling channels made from metal 3D printing are presented, which can offer significant advantages.

Swedish manufacturer VBN Components is known for its extremely wear-resistant materials, especially the world's hardest steel, Vibenite 290, and the world's first 3d-printed cemented carbide, Vibenite 480. A new machine now allows the company to produce pore-free materials and to develop the alloys further.

The provider of automated and portable 3D measurement solutions and engineering services Creaform will be presenting its portable 3D scanners at Gifa 2023. The scanners are used in the casting industry, particularly in product development and quality assurance. Visitors will also be able to find out more about automated 3D scanning solutions.

With news from the field of rapid tooling and additive manufacturing technologies, as well as an exciting special show, Cirp from Heimsheim, Germany, will once again be present at the Innonet joint stand no. 1D21 at Moulding Expo 2023. One of many highlights at the fair is a brightly coloured helmet.

From 13 to 16 June, Messe Stuttgart will once again be staging the Moulding Expo. With almost 400 exhibitors, the international trade fair offers the top manufacturers all about innovative processes and services in the field of tool, model and mould making. Speedpart from Hasloch/Main will also be there and will be presenting its innovative mould making process complemented by 3D printing.

Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, allows Seco Tools to create products that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to manufacture. The advantages include shorter lead times, improved tool life and increased sustainability.

Industrial 3D printing expert Titomic has further expanded into Europe by entering into a reseller agreement with Multistation, located in Paris, France.

Mapping a 3D printing process as a continuous digital process chain from the component design to the production and post-processing is the logical consequence of a digital Additive Manufacturing strategy. This objective that Aim3D has set itself has been taken up by the Naddcon research and development centre in Lichtenfels (Germany), which specialises in Additive Manufacturing.

Mapping a 3D printing process as a continuous digital process chain from design to manufacturing and post-processing is the logical consequence of a digital-additive manufacturing strategy. On behalf of AIM3D, the development service provider Naddcon has now integrated the ExAM 255 3D printer into the Siemens NX environment.
