Announced today, two 3D printing powerhouses are to join forces with a definitive agreement for Desktop Metal to acquire EnvisionTEC, a market leader in photopolymer printing with an incredible IP and product portfolio. The acquisition will add a large portfolio of photopolymer 3D printers for end-use parts, dental and orthodontic applications, bioprinting, and casting markets such as jewelry. Dynamism is an authorized reseller of both brands, discover their available 3D printing solutions here.

In the industrial additive manufacturing market, growth has been driven by a shift from purely prototyping to dedicated solutions for end-use applications, an area where EnvisionTEC excels. Founded in 2002, EnvisionTEC boasts a large portfolio of over 190 materials and seven current 3D printers, which come in a variety of industry-focused configurations. Of notable mention, a recent material addition, EnvisionTEC’s E-3955 Thermal Cure exceeds material properties of Ultem1010, the strongest material currently available for material extrusion 3D printers (FFF/FDM). In addition, the EnvisionTEC portfolio includes a massive, high-speed 3D printer powered by an 8k DLP light source, printers 100X faster than legacy thermoplastic printers, a bioprinter, and several industry leading solutions for dental, jewelry, and manufacturing applications.

Through the acquisition expect “business as usual” for both companies.  EnvisionTEC will continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary, maintaining the current organizational structure, with founder Al Siblani remaining as CEO, and the EnvisionTEC sales organization and channel program remaining in place.

September 3rd, 2020 marked 35 years since Super Mario Bros’ first launched. To celebrate, Nintendo announced an innovative new augmented reality version of the beloved Mario Kart series, Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit. Utilizing a camera-equipped Kart synced to a Nintendo Switch, the game puts you directly in the driver’s seat, navigating whatever course you can devise around the home. The innovative game format has given rise to some pretty insane courses. One of notable mention, a 3D printed recreation of the classic SNES Rainbow Road course, more information below.

Created by Additive Manufacturing Specialist, Antonio Aranzana and a fleet of BCN3D 3D Printers, the roughly 17′ by 18′ course is comprised of 4,434 PLA pieces. The course was completed in just three short days on BCN3D’s new Sigma D25. A feat hard to match with other 3D printers, made possible by their innovative Independent Dual Extruder (IDEX) technology. The IDEX system utilizes two, independent extruders to offer mirror and duplication printing modes, cutting the production time to half that of other single head 3D printers.

While creating a Mario Kart track may be fun and games, BCN3D’s IDEX system points to a growing trend as additive manufacturing transitions from simple prototyping to low-volume production, mass customization, and end-use parts. Click the button below to learn more about BCN3D’s 3D Printers.

One of the best professional 3D printer brands just got better and bigger! Released today, the new Ultimaker S5 boasts a large build volume, intuitive touch screen, and reliable dual extrusion system. Already relied upon by tens of thousands of businesses, the launch continues Ultimaker’s dominance in the professional desktop 3D printing market.

Ultimaker S5 New Features

The Ultimaker S5 is a large leap from its predecessors with major changes across the board, delivering an easier and more reliable 3D printing experience. Here’s what’s new:

Build Volume: One of the most obvious changes is the spacious 330 x 240 x 300 mm build volume. In addition, the print area is now behind a set of tinted glass doors. These help to regulate temperatures during the printing process, minimizing warping and cracking.

UI/UX: The S5 features a new 4.7-inch (11.9 cm) full color touchscreen. An intuitive user interface enables users, both new and tenured, to easily control the machine, load filaments, run calibration sequences, and monitor prints, no experience required. In addition to the new touchscreen, Ultimaker added new automated leveling sequences to ensure perfect first layers and bed adhesion.

Connectivity: In an increasingly network connected world, the new S5 is no different. Onboard wifi and a built-in webcam seamlessly integrates with Ultimaker’s Cura Slicer, allowing users to easily send prints to the 3D printer from the comfort of their desk.

Materials: Included print cores enable the Ultimaker S5 to print an impressive range of materials out of the box. Going even further, the S5 now has an optional CC Red 0.6mm print core upgrade, enabling users to 3D print abrasive, high-strength materials, such as carbon fiber-filled and glass filled nylons.
