Latest 3D/AM news

AM Solutions signed an agreement with Shapeways Inc. to join its Beta Partner Program for AM Solutions’ C2 Liquid Color Smoothing technology. This represents a further strengthening of the relationship with Shapeways which invested in AM Solutions S1 and S2 technologies this past year after taking part in the Beta Program for the S2 post-processing solution.

Jules Witte, plant manager at Shapeways’ Eindhoven, Netherlands-based facility says, “Our interest in the C2 from AM Solutions is because it provides AM part post-processing results increasingly demanded by our customers.”

The C2 from AM Solutions improves the chemical smoothing of 3D printed parts. With its 2-in-1 Liquid Color Smoothing process, it can smooth and dye parts in a single pass. This streamlines the process chain with both functions performed by only one machine. It also reduces the total capital investment required and lowers the cost per finished part.

Tobias Schamberger, head of sales at AM Solutions says, “We’re proud to be working so closely with a company such as Shapeways which is such a prominent player in the additive manufacturing (AM) space. As two companies, we share similar objectives when it comes to AM, and that’s for us developing, and for Shapeways investing in and using, technologies in the AM process chain that produce the highest quality end-use parts in the most cost-effective way possible. Working with us on the C2 Beta Partner Program endorses that Shapeways and AM Solutions both recognize the pivotal value of this technology for the AM sector.”
