Optimising the transition from concept to full-scale model and beyond. How do modern businesses test their ideas out effectively? Here's how fast prototyping techniques power innovation.

With the use of network communication, new digital technologies combine physical manufacturing systems with virtual worlds of knowledge and 3D modelling.

A single continuous production step is only one of the capabilities of the 5-axis machine. Moduleworks also aims to prevent printing errors and more.

ETG Ireland ended on good note last year with the delivery of three machines in the last quarter of 2019.

Inovatool's Incocam portal allows its users access to a large selection of 3D models. The platform also features an interface with the Tools United database.

The new plugin allows direct access to millions of 3D CAD & BIM models from numerous manufacturers which can be used to construct and design.

The latest trends in clamping technology can be experienced in the VDMA Forum of Clamping Technology at Metav on 11 March 2020. Learn how clamping technology is becoming cyber-physical.

The optional module “Optimizer” for Hypermill from Open Mind aims to improve machining processes via digital twin, promising to calculate the most efficient movements for multi-axis machining.

Oen Mind Technologies was very pleased with the level of interest of the company's mould and tool making solutions received at the recently held Moulding Expo. Visitors at the trade fair who hadn’t yet heard about the optimisation options available with 5-axis tangent plane machining were able to learn more about this solution at its booth, where a large model of a conical barrel cutter was on exhibit.

The Additive Manufacturing with Metal Powders 2017 Report reveals that the primary market for metal additive manufacturing (AM), encompassing metal AM systems and metal powder materials, exceeded $950m in 2016, according to the latest edition of Smar-Tech Publishing’s industry-leading metal AM market research report.
