Speaker line-up announced for TCT Show 2016
TCT Show, a specialist event dedicated to 3D manufacturing tech, has announced the speaker line-up for the 21st TCT Show Conference and details of the comprehensive exhibitor list.
First the part is 3D printed, layer by layer, to slightly larger than the final size, then it is trimmed to its exact final size and shape using a CNC router. The process operates in free space and does not require molds or tooling.
LSAM is targeted for the production of tooling, masters, molds, fixtures, patterns and plugs for a variety of industries including aerospace, automotive, boating, foundry and thermoforming. In addition, Thermwood believes it will find additional applications as various industries become aware of the benefits of large part additive manufacturing. For tooling, the primary benefits of this approach are a substantially lower cost and a dramatically shorter build cycle.
