HP, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) and the National Research Foundation Singapore (NRF) today announced the new HP-NTU Digital Manufacturing Corporate Lab. via Tumblr HP, NTU Singapore and NRF announce $84 million HP-NTU Digital Manufacturing Corporate Lab CU Boulder engineers have developed a 3D printing technique that can recreate the complex geometry of blood vessels, and could one day be used to produce artificial arteries and organ tissue. via Tumblr Novel 3D bioprinting tech could create artificial blood vessels, organ tissue The launch of the new AccuFab-D1 DLP 3D printer took place on October 11th in Hangzhou, China, in front of a large crowd attending SHINING 3D’s 3rd Global Reseller & Partner Meeting. via Tumblr SHINING 3D Launches AccuFab-D1 DLP 3D printer at Global Reseller & Partner Meeting 2018 Australian metal additive manufacturing Company Titomic today announces that it has signed an agreement with TAUV Proprietary Limited to commence an up to $1.8 million exclusive defence program to manufacture unmanned aerial vehicles, solider systems and solider sensors for TAUV. via Tumblr Titomic signs $1.8M Defence MoU with TAUV to 3D print next-generation soldier systems Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems (IKTS) have found a way to make much harder 3D prints in metal using Fused Filament Fabrication, which originates from the plastics processing industry. via Tumblr Fraunhofer IKTS researchers use FFF 3D printing to make harder 3D metal prints Stephen Lawrence Prize-winning architects Anna Liu and Mike Tonkin of London-based Tonkin Liu have developed an innovative medical device called the Shell Lace Stent for use in patients’ windpipes. via Tumblr Tonkin Liu develops trachea stent prototype using architectural Shell Lace Structure Lithium-ion batteries power everything from smartphones and tablets to e-cigarettes and electric cars. Until now, manufacturers have had to design their devices around standard battery sizes, and it limits the design options and capacities of consumer devices. via Tumblr New method developed to 3D print lithium-ion batteries in nearly any shape What’s Fueling Inkjet Growth?Production inkjet printing is well positioned to meet today’s print-related communication and business transformation strategies. Why? What’s fueling inkjet growth? Several things. Inkjet is ideal for a range of applications and opens the door to new ones. Inkjet delivers results that traditional digital Xerographic and offset technologies can’t by producing high volumes of variable content at lower cost. Only inkjet can answer some needs profitably by:
These advantages make inkjet an essential element when it comes to transforming print operations in a big way. Why Your Balance Sheet Will Love InkjetMany print providers see production inkjet as a way to re-evaluate their businesses and optimize operations to drive out cost. For example, using blank rolls of paper for white paper-in printing saves money versus creating and warehousing offset preprinted shells for overprinting. In addition, inkjet has lower per-page costs compared with Xerography. Other ways production inkjet transforms print operations by reducing overall costs include:
How Inkjet Grows RevenueAnother bottom line benefit of inkjet is revenue growth. Achieving this goal often requires re-engineering your offset jobs to inkjet to leverage variable data, thus adding relevance and value for your customers and theirs. Production inkjet transforms applications to create new revenue sources through:
The inkjet transformation opens the doors to new work and new growth, in other words, rocket fuel for your bottom line. Production Inkjet Meets Marketers’ Needs
