News additive ippt manufacturing RAPID + TCTMore than 400 of the additive manufacturing industry’s leading companies will come together in Detroit at Huntington Place to share the latest processes, materials and technologies in additive manufacturing at RAPID + TCT, May 17-19.
As North America’s largest and most influential additive manufacturing event, RAPID + TCT gives attendees exclusive access to see the most innovative products in additive manufacturing firsthand, learn from the industry’s most respected experts and network with thousands of industry peers, according to SME Executive Director and CEO Robert “Bob” Willig.
“As the preeminent AM event in North America, RAPID + TCT is the place to be to show off and experience the technologies that continue to shape modern manufacturing,” said Willig. “Each year, exhibiting companies push the limits of what’s possible through interactive demonstrations, large-scale models and an immersive experience you cannot find anywhere else. With over 400 exhibiting companies and 30 OEMs scheduled for this year, attendees will be blown away by the level of innovation at the event.”
The exhibitor lineup includes some of the most innovative names in additive manufacturing, from startups to established, worldwide brands on the cutting edge of 3D-printing hardware, software and services.
The following is just one of a few highlights from this year’s event floor:
The Desktop Metal Production System P-1 will make its first public debut at RAPID + TCT following its launch in late 2020 during the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had closed most public venues. The Production System P-1 is being used by a growing number of customers today, including Ford Motor Co., FreeFORM Technologies, Indo-MIM, Formula 3D Corp. and Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
The P-1 is used for serial production of small and high-precision parts as well as materials, process and application validation that can be transferred directly to the Production System P-50 to scale for mass production. This easy-to-use system features a manageable build volume, an inert build chamber and Desktop Metal’s patent-pending, high-speed, Single Pass Jetting print technology.
Both the P-1 and the P-50 support a wide range of materials, including stainless steels, low-alloy steels, tool steels, nickel alloys, precious metals and more — delivering excellent part quality and final part densities up to or exceeding 99 per cent.
