Carbon

The midsole is printed using Carbon’s Digital Light Synthesis technology and includes 20,000 struts that can be individually tuned to address different types of running needs.

BMW is leveraging 3D printing to allow vehicle owners to customize a BMW MINI using printed inlays to augment their side scuttles, interior trim, LED door sills and LED door projectors.

The FEA simulation uses a moving domain analysis to model Carbon’s Digital Light Synthesis (DLS) technology down to the micron level throughout the build process, then predicts potential warping and/or cracking.

Cloud-based FEA simulates 3D print forces.

Carbon works at the intersection of hardware, software, and molecular science. Our vision is a future fabricated with light, where traceable, final-quality parts are produced at scale with CLIP technology. CLIP Continuous Liquid Interface Production makes this vision possible by...

One of the picks will be chosen as DE’s Editor’s Pick of the Week.

Designers in the world of 3D printing/additive manufacturing (AM) will find a number of highly useful features among the hundreds announced in SOLIDWORKS 2018.

Both Markforged and Desktop Metal have announced metal 3D printing systems that avoid the concerns posed by working with classic powdered-metal materials.

Accuracy, repeatability, durability and surface quality were all important factors, but so was cost.

It was designed from the ground up for manufacturing applications and has two configurations: Design SpeedCell and Production SpeedCell.

The latest firsts in 3D printing are emerging out of R&D labs and being made by big businesses.

In what could eventually be the largest-scale roll out of 3D printing for manufacturing consumer products, California-based 3D print company Carbon has partnered with Adidas to develop both new materials and designs for athletic shoe midsoles.

SpeedCell available in configurations for designers and industrial manufacturing.
