The software manufacturer CoreTechnologie (CT) presents its new 4D_Additive Manufacturing Software Suite. The German-French company has introduced a software suite to prepare CAD models for all major 3D printing methods. With 4D_Additive CAD data of all current systems such as Catia, NX, Solidworks, Creo, STEP or JT is read by precise native interfaces and processed as exact B-Rep geometry including all contained product manufacturing information (PMI). This enables ability to analyze, repair and prepare the 3D models with highest precision and according to CAD engineering standard. With conventional 3D printing software, CAD models are usually triangulated, i.e., converted to STL…

Dear DE Reader: Additive manufacturing (AM) has turned a corner. The long-sought goal of printing production parts in volume is becoming a reality. For metal AM specifically, the inability to analyze part structure during the manufacturing process has been a key factor limiting mainstream adoption. Thanks to a significant update, Sigma Labs now offers an independent solution for real-time structure analysis during metal AM part production; it’s why PrintRite3D Version 5.0 is our Editor’s Pick of the Week. PrintRite3D is an in-process quality control platform for metal additive manufacturing. It combines inspection, feedback, data collection and critical analysis. The platform…
