At the IDTechEx Show! in Santa Clara, IDTechEx was delighted to present the 'Best Development in 3D Printing Award USA 2017' to Exovite for their work on 'Technological innovation in tools and medical procedures.'

On Dec 5 to 7 IDTechEx will host six half day business intelligence forums covering the latest innovations with sensors, flexible electronics, human machine interface technology and the Internet of Things.

TOYAL will produce the patented aluminium alloy Scalmalloy® on the company's know-how and is focussed on potential further developments in the composition of the alloy or in relation to an optimized production process.

Current industrial systems are designed to produce products in standard shapes and sizes. For example, a shoe can be purchased in size 10 or 11 inches, and in some cases at 10.5 inches, but an exact fit is often hard to achieve. Additive Manufacturing technology has shown an exciting potential for addressing the technical and economic viability of producing custom made products for all.

Emirates has used cutting-edge 3D printing technology to manufacture components for its aircraft cabins. The airline has reached a significant milestone in innovation by using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), a new and innovative 3D printing technique to produce video monitor shrouds. One of the other recent achievements has been the 3D printing, certification and installation of aircraft cabin air vent grills for onboard trials.

NPJ technology is poised to transform the metal and ceramic AM industries by its ability to print separate nanoparticle "inks" or fluids for the build and support material. This enables ceramic or metal parts to be produced with the ease and versatility that one associates with inkjet printing.

Researchers have pioneered a breakthrough method to rapidly 3D print fully functional electronic circuits.

A major drawback to 3-D printing - the slow pace of the work - could be alleviated through a software algorithm.

Engineers have developed new fractal-like, concentrating solar power receivers for small- to medium-scale use that are up to 20 percent more effective at absorbing sunlight than current technology.

A novel technology for the 3D printing of personalized food based on nano-cellulose, a natural, edible, calorie-free fiber.

Over 3,000 attendees, 250 exhibitors and 240 speakers will converge at the Santa Clara Convention Center on November 15-16 for the IDTechEx Show!

Smart 3D-printed braces that incorporate nontoxic batteries and lights could reduce the time and costs involved in realigning and straightening teeth.

Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in 3D printing one of the most common forms of marine grade stainless steel - a low-carbon type called 316L - that promises an unparalleled combination of high-strength and high-ductility properties for the ubiquitous alloy.

A major new Australian research project is set to transform the way physicians surgically treat tumours and bone cancer, and dramatically improve patient and healthcare outcomes.
