DyeMansion Takes 3D Printing Color Technology to AMUG, Looking Forward to Future Events & Business in the US http://ift.tt/2mWjEBj Last week, the Additive Manufacturing Users Group (AMUG) held its annual conference in Chicago, where companies working with 3D printing technologies gathered for a week to talk technology. Recently, we spoke with Munich-based company DyeMansion, which made its first official visit to North America to attend AMUG 2017. Pia Harlaß, Marketing Manager for the company, had nothing but positive things to say about their experience at the conference, which ran from March 19 to 23.
DyeMansion is known for its unique post-processing technology for SLS 3D printed parts, and particularly for its coloring process – the first of its kind for parts additively manufactured from powder. Philipp Kramer, co-founder and CTO, spoke to the conference attendees about the company’s technology and the current market.
DyeMansion currently offers three products:
The new DM60 Reservoir is set to address dyeing for black, the most popular shade requested, by not discharging the wastewater from the dye bath, but storing and recirculating it for a new color cycle. DyeMansion notes that benefits of the new system include a productivity increase, shortening cycle time and negating the need for manual exchange of color cartridges; cost reduction, including of the five-times reusable cartridge and of power and water resource use; sustainability; and reproducible results, ensuring consistent color quality through all five cycles. DyeMansion’s solutions are compatible with every powder-based 3D printing system on the market. At the AMUG booth they shared with EOS, the company demonstrated the versatility of their technology by showing off a wide range of parts that had been finished and colored, including eyewear from Powder & Heat, shin guards from Zweikampf, ortheses from Pohlig, and an industrial gripper from Formrise.
The conference featured presentations from major industry players including Stratasys, EOS, and Carbon, as well as Carl Deckard, the inventor of SLS technology. Other exhibitors included 3D Systems, HP, Renishaw and Somos. While AMUG may have been DyeMansion’s first trip to the US, it certainly isn’t going to be the last. The company will be back in May for the RAPID + TCT conference in Pittsburgh – 3DPrint.com will be there, too, and we’re looking forward to talking with DyeMansion again, after last seeing them in person on their home turf in Germany at formnext in November. The young company is full of plans for the near future, including expansion to the United States.
