EnvisionTEC, a manufacturer of professional-grade 3D printing solutions, has released the SLCOM 1 industrial composite 3D printer.
The system is capable of building objects with a scale of 24x30x24 in. It can print with woven glass fiber, woven carbon fiber, or other woven aramid fibers reinforced with a choice of Nylon 6, Nylon 11, Nylon 12, PEEK, PEKK, Polycarbonate and many others, the company states.
"We are proud to introduce the first disruptive industrial-scale, composites 3D printer.  This represents a paradigm shift for manufacturing, especially where demanding mechanical and environmental properties can only be delivered from woven composites," said Al Siblani, CEO of EnvisionTEC. "It is exciting to consider the extensive range of new applications that the SLCOM 3D printing technology will open up.  EnvisionTEC has long been a pioneer in 3D printing innovations and we believe that this entry into the composites space will propel industrial 3D printing to a host of new applications."
The company has also formed a partnership with Viridis3D, a supplier of additive manufacturing technology for making sand molds and cores for foundry applications. The collaboration will drive continued development of 3D printing for sand casting products for both ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.
