3D Systems to Showcase Industrial 3D Technology as Part of U.S. Business Delegation to 2016 Hannover Messe
April 20 2016 - 9:00AM
3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) announced today that it will take part in the
largest-ever U.S. delegation to Hannover Messe, the world’s
foremost trade fair for industrial technology, taking place April
25-29, in Hannover, Germany. For the first time in the fair’s
history, the United States will be the Partner Country, a status
that provides the more than 390 businesses and organizations in the
U.S. delegation an unprecedented opportunity to showcase their
capabilities and global reach during the event. President Obama
will also participate in this year’s event, themed “Integrated
Industry-Discover Solutions.”
3D Systems will exhibit in the USA Digital Factory Pavilion at
Hall 6, Stand K01.
In 1983, 3D Systems’ Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer,
Chuck Hull, invented Stereolithography (SLA), the first 3D printing
process. In the 30 years since, 3D printing has provided engineers,
designers and manufacturers with a digital production and
verification process capable of transforming workflows, optimizing
product design, and disrupting industries.
Hull will be present at the 2016 Hannover Messe, where he will
provide insights in a Regional Clusters seminar on Monday, April
25th. This seminar, “Clusters in the EU and USA: Opportunities for
Collaboration and Growth,” will discuss and explore new ways to
promote global innovation and commercialization in high-tech
industries. The panel will take place in Hall 2, 1st floor, Rooms
02.01.12 and 02.01.13, at 2:45 PM CEST.
3D Systems’ 3D technologies span the entire
concept-to-production workflow, enabling and encouraging innovation
in products and processes. Featured industrial 3D printing
solutions at Hall 6, Stand K01 will include:
- Production-grade SLA on the ProJet®
6000, offering fast, high quality SLA printing with
streamlined build optimization and exceptional surface quality.
Material capabilities on the ProJet 6000 match or exceed the
properties of traditional plastics, and allow for high temperature
resistance, tensile strength and impact strength as well as USP
Class VI capable materials for bio-compatible medical or dental
applications. The booth will also feature a video demonstration of
3D Systems’ ultra-fast Figure 4 technology, the latest innovation
in Stereolithography.
- Direct metal 3D printing on the ProX®
DMP 200 for fully dense metal parts with thin walls,
excellent surface finish and outstanding detail resolution. DMP
technology enables the production of geometries that are
unachievable through traditional means, helping manufacturers
unlock new performance capabilities in critical and demanding
applications such as aerospace, automotive, healthcare and
beyond.
“We are proud to have some of America’s most innovative and
forward thinking companies joining the U.S. delegation at this
year’s fair,” said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker. “The
U.S. business community and the Department of Commerce have a clear
message for the world: the United States is open for business. We
will demonstrate and deliver on that message at the 2016 Hannover
Messe.”
“It is an honor for us to be part of the U.S. delegation to
Hannover,” said Neal Orringer, Vice President, Alliances and
Partnerships, 3D Systems. “We are excited to showcase our ecosystem
of 3D technology alongside other world-class American businesses,
and to share our dedication to manufacturing excellence and
innovation with a global audience.”
Hannover Messe typically hosts more than 200,000 attendees from
more than 70 countries, including global investors, buyers,
distributors, resellers and government officials. More information
can be found on the Hannover Messe website.
