Share this Article

John Deere ordered 4000 stainless steel valve components produced by GKN made using HP binder jet. The valves are better for flow and have less mass. St. Luke's Hospital in Pennsylvania is using ActivArmor casts made with phone scans, made on FDM machines in ABS, finished with Dremel's and 3D printing pens and then vapor smoothed. St. Luke's now makes these casts in house and they're covered by Medicare and Medicaid. AddUp now has a FormUp 350 Evolution powder bed fusion metal 3D printer with a 350 by 350 by 1000mm build volume.
