The most significant contribution to speeding-up AM parts validations is probably that today Dyndrite can deliver. Salvation comes from a Software Company.
On the hardware side, the number of lasers per machine may grow more but the intrinsic properties of lasers show potential for faster printing: see what nLIGHT, Inc. has introduced in the recent months.
Both companies exhibited side-by-side at Formnext – Where ideas take shape – a subtle reminder that neither hardware nor software is a stand-alone solution.
One direction for the AM industry is to unlock the next orders of magnitude in throughput. These folks are surely among those who’ll take us there.

P.S.
We had to document the visit to our booth by Metallurgy-legend Joe Strauss: see him in good company with our Technology Manager, Dr. Ian McCarthy and our Materials and Process Manager, Dr. Dustin Hickman.
We did not talk cars.
(Thanks ExpoMedia for passing by our booth and taking these shots)!
