Additive Manufacturing Media: 3D Printing and Coronavirus Check-In April 7, 2020April 9, 2020 | The Essentium Team Share In this conversation, Additive Manufacturing Media discusses 3D printing’s pivot to production; additive manufacturing as a bridge production measure for ventilator parts; personal protective equipment (PPE) for use by first responders and others outside hospitals; 3D printed testing swabs and more. A shift appears to be emerging in how 3D printing is being applied to fight coronavirus. We seem to be moving past independent, isolated efforts and toward greater organization and guidance, higher volume 3D printing, and in some cases a shift to more conventional production techniques for PPE, ventilators and more.

The Essentium Team February 18, 2021 3D Natives: Essentium Survey Shows That Investments in AM are Paying Off In early February, Essentium, Inc announced the results of the second in a series of findings from independent global research on the current and future use of industrial 3D printing. We previously covered the first survey published in 2019, which focused mainly on the slow adoption of additive manufacturing for mass-production. This new survey has shown significant advancements in that particular arena as well as significant benefits for users of industrial additive manufacturing while also highlighting remaining challenges to overcome, notably concerning the cost of 3D printing technologies and materials.
