Desktop Metal is holding a webinar at 11 am EST on the 4th about “Manufacturing Preparation Software for Successful Sintering of Binder Jet 3D-Printed Metal Parts.” Its Live Sinter software helps customers successfully produce binder jet powder metal sintered parts. During the webinar, attendees will learn about the causes of sintering distortion, explore models of sintering behavior that simulate shrinkage and generate negative offset geometries to print parts with tight tolerances, review a scan adjustment workflow that complements predictive scanning to help manufacturers achieve consistent parts that match required specifications, and more from speakers Andy Roberts, Desktop Metal Technical Fellow; Soniya Patel, Desktop Metal Technical Marketing Manager, and Neil Glazebrook, ABCorp‘s VP of 3D Solutions.
“Sintering is a key step in the metal binder jet 3D printing workflow. However, many parts experience warpage in the furnace that can lead to unsatisfactory final results. Rather than fight the effects of gravity, friction, shrinkage, and distortion, Desktop Metal Live Sinter software embraces the natural forces at work during sintering and provides advanced simulation to predict and correct for errors when sintering printed parts using binder jetting systems.”

It’s more important than ever to keep fighting climate change, and carbon negative infrastructure is what’s needed. Direct Air Capture (DAC), which enables the separation of CO2 from air to create necessary products for the economy, is one of the most scalable, efficient, and effective methods to lower emissions, and the design optimization capability of 3D printing can increase the efficiency even more. Scott Green, 3D Systems’ Principal Solutions Leader, will discuss AM applications within DAC equipment, how to successfully integrate AM, and more.
“Removing carbon from the atmosphere requires filters, heat exchangers, condensers, gas separators, and compressors. Many of these complex parts require geometries that are well-suited to production with additive manufacturing, which can be done more efficiently and cost-effectively than using traditional fabrication methods. Additive manufacturing enables freedom of design to express the novel architecture required to efficiently capture and process carbon from the atmosphere and do something useful with it. The design optimization capability of additive manufacturing toward these carbon capture and utilization systems can dramatically boost the efficiency of these technologies.”
