Massivit 3D outlines the relationship between Industry 4.0 and additive manufacturing, exploring how this technology is driving innovation and sustainability in the manufacturing sector. The company also discusses the role of academia-industry partnerships in advancing additive manufacturing, the impact of this technology on key industries, and the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Industry 4.0, […]
According Pieter Machtelinckx, writing for Massive 3D, issues such as manufacturing feasibility and storage do not provide the whole story. The full potential of additive manufacturing, also called 3D printing, only becomes apparent when companies consider its effects on the entire supply chain, and ultimately its total cost of ownership (TCO) and the potential benefits of […]
According to Pieter Machtelinckx, writing for Massivit 3D, with the advent of additive manufacturing (better known as Additive Manufacturing or AM), this technology already allows suppliers to produce parts on demand, close to where the parts are needed. Spare parts for your machine fleet: either you have too many of them or too few. And […]
Additive manufacturing (AM) has found its application in different sectors of the power industry, both in building prototypes and in mainstream production, leading to process simplification and operational efficiency. Contrasting to the prevalent manufacturing processes, additive manufacturing can produce components with complex geometries, consume fewer raw-materials, produce less waste, have reduced energy consumption and decreased […]
