January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
From 3D Systems Corporation (Rock Hill, SC) comes the iPro 8000 MP SLA Precision Center, a system for manufacturing small, precision custom parts that is designed for automated pushbutton data processing of hundreds of files at a time. Company materials say the resulting products rival the accuracy and detail of CNC milling.
Suitable for the rapid mass customization of medical parts, including orthodontics, implant drill guides, dental restorations, hearing aid shells and ear molds, the iPro 8000 MP SLA Precision Center is designed with an integrated materials’ management system for quick resin change, lot tracking and quality control. The system sports an integrated resin delivery module for building parts up to two inches (or 50 mm) high.
As the second mid-range, compact-footprint stereolithography system in the iPro family, the iPro 8000 MP SLA Precision Center is also based on 3D Systems’ patented SLA technology. Orders for this new system for fourth-quarter 2008 shipments will be taken immediately at 3D Systems.
