Welcome to the 2024 TCT Buyers’ Guide. Hello, welcome to the 2024 TCT Buyers’ Guide. Whether it’s more lasers, bigger build volumes or new material capabilities, the 3D printing industry is a dizzying one to keep up with. As the editor of a 3D printing publication, I know this first-hand! Despite what you may have heard about plug and print machines or one-stop shops, additive manufacturing (AM), as 30-plus years of innovation have taught us, is not easy. To truly take advantage, it requires thoughtful design, materials expertise, repeatable parameters, operational skills, infrastructure, and a strong application. I hope I haven’t scared you away because if you’re holding this TCT Buyers’ Guide in your hands, the likelihood is you’re ready to invest in a new piece of AM technology. When buying into 3D printing, you’ll find your best chance of success by asking, ‘What do I want it to do?’ From there, you can ask more in-depth questions about desired properties, finishes, volumes, or whatever it is you want your part to achieve. Like any manufacturing process, there is no one size fits all, which is why our TCT Buyers’ Guide is a great tool to start your search. Each page provides you with a breakdown of material capabilities, build size and speeds from a broad range of machines. That doesn’t just mean printers, but also essential postprocessing equipment. As manufacturers around the world continue to wrestle with economic uncertainty, the ability to make effective purchasing decisions is vital. Whether you’re planning to take the plunge into AM, or augmenting your current workflow with something entirely new, I hope this year’s TCT Buyers’ Guide sets you on the right path.

Post Processing, redefined. Addiblast® product line by FerroECOBlast® Europe presents the most advanced postprocessing solutions for the additive manufacturing industry, combining 3 key post processing solutions within the same product line: de-powdering, powder recovery & conditioning and surface treatment of 3D-printed parts. Addiblast® line is compatible to post process all main brands of 3D printers existing on the market.

MARS provides top-of-the line automated and manual solutions to remove fine powder from complex geometries. Explosionproof designs make the machines suitable for titanium and aluminum treatment, while its features such as Wi-fi communication between stations provide an easy data exchange experience among operators. Additionally, it offers a build volume of up to 1000 mm x 1000 mm x 1000 mm, with weights reaching 1100 kg or even more if required by clients. Its compatibility with all main 3D printer brands makes MARS ideal for post processing prints under defined inert conditions at maximum safety levels. With BAM, you can effortlessly achieve a polished and pristine finish on your 3D-prints. Its ergonomic design enables the perfect surface treatment for tasks ranging from smoothing to roughening through to support structure removal or intricate powder extraction among other functions. Not only is it made with durable stainless steel but also matches all types of blasting media, making it an ideal solution regardless of circumstance – whether manual operation via small cabinets or automated part cleaning & surface treatment.

STAR is a “central station” that continuously and automatically controls the pneumatic transfer, recycling, and conditioning of powder from various sources. It provides a direct connection to the 3D printer, powder removal system (e.g. MARS03), and can also be used to purify the virgin powder before it is used in the 3D printer for the first time. Powder recovery and conditioning provide significant improvements and benefits for serial additive manufacturing production.

Apium Additive Technologies GmbH is a technology-based company located in Karlsruhe, Germany, that offers innovative products and solutions for processing high-performance polymers using additive manufacturing. Apium is the first company worldwide to market PEEK (polyetheretherketone) in filament form and develops 3D printers that are specifically tailored for the Material Extrusion (MEX) process with industrial high-performance polymers. TECHNOLOGY MEX (Material Extrusion also known as Fused Filament Fabrication or Fused Deposition Modelling) is a 3D printing technology which is used for processing thermoplastic materials of filament form into three dimensional objects. The filament is fed from a large coil, through a moving gear system (extruder) into a heated mechanically translating print head and then extruded through a nozzle onto a surface. Subsequent deposition/ extrusion of material onto the surface in a layer by layer approach results in the creation of the 3D object. The entire printing process is computer controlled ensuring that the necessary process control for high quality objects is realized. MEDICAL Life Saving Innovation. We offer the unique possibility to produce patient specific prostheses and implants at low costs and minimal lead times. The Apium M220 is the world’s first 3D printer designed specifically for the manufacturing of medical products and implants made out of PEEK without affecting PEEK`s biocompatibility and sterilization properties. The Apium solution makes possible a faster and more flexible reaction scenario at times of emergency. AWARDS

INDUSTRIAL A New Level of Additive Manufacturing We achieve a completely crystallized component with simultaneously very good surface quality and good layer adhesion. No other method can meet these three goals simultaneously. Furthermore, our process is extremely agile and energy-saving due to the relatively small heated area. Energy is only introduced where it is needed - in the uppermost layers. We achieve this by installing a zone heater just above the printing surface. FILAMENTS High-Performance Filaments Apium enables the highest part quality in the additive production of high-performance polymers. High part quality starts with the material. Apium filaments are the best choice for industrial and medical applications. HIGHLIGHTS

OPEN UP NEW ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING APPLICATIONS The German family-owned company ARBURG is one of the world‘s leading manufacturers of plastic processing machines. ARBURGadditive was founded in 2021 in order to bundle together activities in the additive manufacturing area. The product portfolio comprises the freeformers from ARBURG and the 3D-printers from innovatiQ, an ARBURG family member. The freeformer using ARBURG Plastic Freeforming (APF) is an open system, which operates on the basis of standard granulates. The APF process opens up completely new applications. It enables the processing of three components to produce resilient and complex functional parts in a hard/soft combination. This is unique to date within the industry. A new addition to the range is the freeformer 750-3X, whose part carrier of 750 cm² is around 2.5 times larger than that of the freeformer 300-3X.

The APF process is suitable for the additive manufacturing of prototypes and industrial functional components in particular. With the

freeformer 200-3X for two components and the freeformer 300-3X and freeformer 750-3X for three components, ARBURG covers a wide range of applications. Custom-made plastic parts for consumer goods, medical implants and spare parts made from the original material are only three of the many areas for which the freeformer is predestined. The open system offers great geometric and material freedom. Users can apply their own original materials and optimise droplet size as well as process regulation. The ARBURG material database documents qualified standard granulates such as ABS (Terluran GP 35), PA10 (Grilamid TR XE 4010), PC (Makrolon 2805), TPE-U (Elastollan C78 A15), Ultem and PP (Braskem CP 393) as well as special plastics for

Why CBAM 25? Capable of print speeds 15x faster than the nearest competitor, the CBAM 25 has and will change the way things are made by bringing the power of 3D printing to volume manufacturing. Faster 3D Printing: The CBAM 25 prints 25 feet per minute and produces parts 15x faster than any other technology on the market. Better Dimensional Accuracy: Long-carbon fibers are combined with 50 micron layers enabling the CBAM 25 to achieve tolerances up to 100 microns. Higher Strength: As a true composite using high strength materials such as carbon fiber we achieve tensile strengths of 140 MPA which is 4x FDM and 3x MJF. High Performance Materials: Using high strength carbon fiber and high performance plastics like PEEK we obtain higher strength and better chemical resistance than conventional 3D printing materials. No Shrinkage or War-page: Because we use long fibers and consolidate under high pressure the is little to no shrinkage or warp-age in CBAM printed parts.

What is CBAM?

CBAM or Composite Based Additive Manufacturing uses high-speed printing methods to produce high-performance composite parts without tooling or messy resins. Long-fiber sheets of carbon fiber or fiberglass are combined with PEEK and other high-performance polymer powders. Once the excess polymer powder is vacuumed from each individual sheet, they are stacked in the shape of the CAD bitmap file.

Next, the stack of sheets are heated and compressed to the melting point of the polymer and finally, the un-bonded portions of sheet fibers are removed through manual or automated bead blasting processes. What is left is an advanced composite part with an excellent strength-to-weight ratio compared to aluminum.

Making Metal 3D Printing Simple and Efficient with Metal Paste Deposition Rapidia, based in Vancouver, Canada, produces metal 3D printing systems for rapid prototyping and demanding end-use applications. Recognizing the limitations of existing metal AM systems - speed, price, part design constraints, operator safety - founder Dan Gelbart saw an opportunity to build on the significant recent advances in metal 3D printing technology with an entirely new process. The result was the development of Rapidia’s Conflux 1 Metal 3D Printing System. Conflux 1 is not your typical metal 3D printer; it’s a practical solution that’s set to change the world of metal part production. In contrast to the complexity of competing powderbased technologies, Conflux 1 takes a more straightforward approach. It is powered by Metal Paste Deposition (MPD) using a water-based metal paste, making the entire process easier and more cost-effective.

The heart of MPD lies in the composition of the metal paste feedstock. It’s a blend of metal particles securely bound in a mixture of water and binder. As printing proceeds, a drying lamp comes into play, evaporating the water component, leaving behind a green part composed mainly of metal particles with less than 1% binder. What sets MPD apart is its precision binding. As the liquid component evaporates, the binder remains precisely where it’s needed. Once all the water is gone, the binder takes over, performing a task that would typically require ten times more binder in traditional metal filaments and Metal Injection Molding (MIM) feedstocks. One of the most significant advantages of MPD is that it eliminates the need for the time-consuming debinding step, allowing you to transition directly from printing to sintering.

Rapidia’s furnace uses advanced materials to offers partial pressure vacuum sintering in an unrivaled small and affordable package. The system is able to achieve excellent metallurgy in an argon atmosphere with low gas consumption and short cycle times.

Experience the future with Conflux 1 and Rapidia.

Speed: Time is money, and Conflux 1 values your time. It accelerates production with fast printing and rapid sintering, with a streamlined path from Printer to Furnace. Most parts can be finished within a 12 hour sintering cycle, larger parts only take up to 24 hours. Design Freedom: With Rapidia’s feedstock, you have total design freedom. Print and sinter solid thick sections without worrying about honeycomb infill. You can easily bond ‘green’ (unsintered) parts using water for intricate assemblies without the need for extensive support. Plus, choose between evaporative support structures or removable metal supports for creating complex parts. Make it here. Make it now.

Sciaky, Inc.’s groundbreaking Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing, (EBAM®) technology is the most trusted industrial 3D solution in the world for large-scale metal parts, with approved applications in four dimensions: land, sea, air, and space.

EBAM is the most widely scalable metal AM solution in the industry (in terms of work envelope), with part production capabilities ranging from 203mm/8” to 6.0 m/20’ in length. EBAM is also one of the fastest deposition processes in the metal AM market, with deposition rates up to 18.14kg/40lbs of metal per hour. EBAM brings quality control together with IRISS® - the Interlayer Real-time Imaging and Sensing System, which is the only real-time adaptive control system in the metal 3D printing market that can sense and

digitally self-adjust metal deposition with precision repeatability. This innovative closed-loop control is the primary reason that Sciaky’s EBAM 3D printing process delivers consistent part geometry, mechanical properties, microstructure, and metal chemistry, from the first part to the last. Starting with a 3D model from a CAD program, Sciaky’s electron beam (EB) gun deposits metal, via wire feedstock, layer-by-layer, until the part reaches near-net shape and is ready for heat treatment and finish machining. Wire feedstock is significantly less expensive, easier to store, and is safer to handle than some highly flammable powder feedstocks. Overall, EBAM reduces material costs with significantly less waste, shortens lead times, and reduces machining times by as much as 80% compared to conventional manufacturing. Plus, with EBAM’s pure vacuum environment, the process does not require the use of argon or any inert gas for part shielding.

The best material candidates for EBAM applications are weldable metals that are available in wire feedstock. These include titanium and titanium alloys, Inconel, tantalum, tungsten, niobium, stainless steels, copper nickel, and nickel copper. Furthermore, with an EBAM dual-wirefeed system, you can combine two different metal alloys into a single melt pool, managed with independent program control, to create custom alloy parts or ingots. You also have the option to change the mixture ratio of the two materials, depending upon the features of the part that you are building, to create graded parts or structures. In addition, you can alternate between different wire gauges for finer deposition features (thin wire) and gross deposition features (thick wire).

YOUR TRUSTED PARTNER FOR DEPOWDERING Since 2015 Solukon is the pioneer and technical leader of automated depowdering in additive manufacturing. The company, located in Augsburg, Germany, has extensive experience in the development of AM systems and related peripheral equipment and offers a full range of industrial postprocessing systems. Solukon has installed depowdering systems in 27 countries and is the supplier of choice of the leading rocket manufacturers. The systems are approved for safe and reliable processing of powder materials, including tough-to-handle and reactive metal powders. Solukon provides four different systems, each of them optimized for your part size and application. The powder removal systems fit for every laser powder bed fusion manufacturing system on the market.

MARKET LEADER THROUGH INTELLIGENT AND DIGITAL FEATURES Solukon not only manufactures the best depowdering equipment on the market, but also considers the digital integration of the equipment. For digital depowdering Solukon is the first manufacturer in the world to offer various unique tools. SPR-Pathfinder® Software The SPR Pathfinder® uses the build job’s CAD file to calculate the ideal motion sequence in the Solukon system. Digital-Factory-Tool (DFT) The DFT sets new standards for quality monitoring, depowdering automation and digital integration. It records all relevant depowdering process data and summarizes the values in a protocol file. New: it also tracks the carbon footprint of depowdering.

NEW: SFM-AT350-E with piezoelectric excitation Since the piezoelectric excitation of the SFM-AT350-E originates directly at the rotary table of the Solukon system, the part can be shifted to the optimal vibration range with high precision. The ultra high frequencies of the electronic excitation are considerably higher than the harmful natural frequency of the part. As the ultrasonic frequency constantly controls and regulates itself the risk of exciting the resonance frequency and damaging sensitive structures is avoided.

Consequently, the SFM-AT350-E is the ideal depowdering system for delicate structures made from materials that are difficult to depowder, like copper. Another major advantage of the new form of excitation is its low levels of noise emission. As a result, the SFM-AT350-E is a perfect fit for the naturally quiet 3D printer environment

MAKE METAL PARTS ANYWHERE. Manufacturing in metal is traditionally very complex, expensive, and inflexible and this contributes to supply chain issues when sourcing metal parts. These supply chain issues have been exacerbated globally by recent events. The world, now more than ever, needs elegant, simple, clean, flexible & reliable metal manufacturing solutions.

SPEE3D are here to help solve these issues with metal printers that enable the most affordable additive manufacturing process in the world. SPEE3D’s 3D metal printers make metal parts

the fastest way possible, leveraging cold spray technology for the production of industrial quality metal parts in just minutes, rather than days or weeks, at production costs. Rather than using heat to melt metal powders, SPEE3D developed ‘Supersonic 3D Deposition’. This is the name given to the patented process in which a rocket nozzle accelerates air up to three times the speed of sound, into which metal powder is injected then deposited onto a substrate maneuvered by a six-axis robotic arm. In this process the sheer kinetic energy of the particles hitting each other causes the powders to bind together to form a high density part with metallurgical properties superior to casting. SPEE3D technology suits the production of parts otherwise produced using sand or die casting with the added benefits of flexibility and the ability to produce parts on-demand at the point of need.

SPEE3D produces expeditionary metal manufacturing equipment, which has been field tested and proven to be robust enough to be deployed by the Australian Army, who have used SPEE3D technology in several world-leading metal 3D printing field trials since 2020. SPEE3D technology has also been trialled by other defence forces including the Royal Australian Navy, and the US Navy. Most recently, during REPTX as part of ANTX-Coastal Trident 2022, SPEE3D’s WarpSPEE3D was the first in the world to successfully metal 3D print military maritime parts, in several different materials, on a US Navy ship. Headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, SPEE3D is committed to helping manufacturers print their parts, their way, when they need them.
