HIGH VISCOSITY INDUSTRIAL DIGITAL PRINTING

16 Jul

The ability to print high viscosity fluids extends the range of materials that can be printed with drop-on-demand inkjet technology. In particular, it makes it possible to print: formulations for extended / new functionalities, i.e. for higher filling with particles polymers of higher molecular weight, e.g. in adhesives, inks and photoresists Improved edge sharpness (less drop spread) New applications in …

2D SURFACE MANUFACTURING

23 Mai

INNOVATION FIELD «INDUSTRIAL POST PROCESSING OF COMPLEX 3D PRINTED PARTS»: The manufacturing industry uses 3D printing techniques more and more. Unfortunately these parts come often with granular surfaces with visible layer structures or insufficient chemical & physical surface properties, further processing steps become necessary. This opens up potential for improvement and innovation in terms of costs and production technology. For …
