Product releases at TCT 2019
Approximately 35 product releases are anticipated at TCT 2019. Among them is a new material release from desktop 3D printer manufacturer and Stratasys subsidiary, MakerBot. The company will enact the UK premiere of its specialty material PETG. MakerBot PETG boasts supreme part durability, chemical resistance, and higher heat deflection, ideal for functional prototypes, jigs and fixtures, and end-use parts. The company can be located in Hall 3, Stand E100.
Moreover, Stratasys’ customers Angel Trains, a British rolling stock operating company, and DB ESG, part of Deutsche Bahn, will present their first in-service 3D printed parts on the UK’s railways at Stand C50. This includes an armrest, grab handle, and seat back table enabled by the engineering-grade Antero 800NA, a PEKK-based wear-resistant plastic, compatible with the Fortus 450mc. The recently-launched F120 3D Printer will also make its UK debut.
SYS Systems, the UK-based reseller, has announced that it will be bringing a novel 3D printed filling assembly, used for testing and measuring the vertical strength and capacity of plastic bottles, to TCT. This was developed in collaboration with bespoke metrology specialists Torus Group, and will be on display at stand B70.
Also in materials, Oxford University spin-off, OxMet Technologies, is set to introduce its range of high-performance nickel, titanium and aluminium alloys for additive manufacturing. The metallurgy company develops materials for aerospace, automotive and medical applications using its proprietary software, Alloys By Design (ABD). OxMet Technologies will be on Stand F62.
