…3D manufacturing. The printing system counts BASF, Materialise and Siemens as strategic partners, creating what HP calls “a new global community of proven large-scale 3D printed parts providers.” The printer is the latest refinement of HP’s work in Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) printing technology, which prints on a line-by-line basis. HP says the method is inspired by its long history of 2D wide format printing, but relies on a variety of innovations for 3D. HP says MJF allows for faster cooling and increased automation of post-processing compared to selective laser sintering (SLS). MJF allows almost 90% of recovered powder to…

…stable, efficient, lifting, and storage solutions. Combilift collaborated with Siemens Gamesa to design the Combi-LC at its headquarters and manufacturing plant in Ireland. The system enables users to move massive wind turbine blades and towers – some as long as 115 m (377.2 ft.) and weighing in at around 70 tons. Combi-LC can move them through production stages and on to storage locations, which can sometimes be as far as 5 km (3.1 mi.) apart, Combilift noted. The concept of bespoke Load Carriers (with a patent pending design) is based on two fully customizable remote-control units with low-level chassis beds…
