As you know, in the SAMANTHA project we are about to publish an innovative training programme that will address the lack of high-tech T-shaped skills for the correct deployment of Additive Manufacturing in the value chains of the Toolmaking and Habitat related products manufacturing industry. Along the same line, another project, CRAFT4.0, also aims to facilitate the access to Additive Manufacturing technology, but in this case, in traditional manufacturing sectors (furniture, interior design, textiles, etc.). The purpose is to improve… Read More »CRAFT4.0: an excellent Additive Manufacturing training complementary to SAMANTHA one

After more than two years, the consortium of SAMANTHA project partners met in Palermo on 8th October for the fifth transnational meeting of the project. This time, the CEIPES hosted them and gave them a warm welcome in the city of Palermo. SAMANTHA aims to develop a new training programme that includes high-tech T-shaped skills for a successful implementation of additive manufacturing (AM) within the curricula of highly qualified staff and is a project funded by the Erasmus+ programme, Key… Read More »SAMANTHA PROJECT PARTNERS MEET IN PALERMO AFTER MORE THAN TWO YEARS OF ONLINE MEETINGS

The subject-specific learning modules deal with: Introduction to AM AM Printing Technologies design & modelling software production process & machines for… Read More »Get ready for the SAMANTHA Training Course!

Specifically designed on the VX1000 for investment casting shells and cores In a joint tailoring project, Japanese ceramics expert AGC Ceramics Co., Ltd (AGCC) and voxeljet AG have qualified the high-performance ceramic material Brightorb for 3D printing. In addition to potential applications in the production of structural components and works of art, the material is particularly suitable for 3D printing of highly complex molds and cores for metal casting. Brightorb was developed on a VX1000 with a build volume of… Read More »AGC Ceramics and voxeljet develop new Brightorb ceramics for 3D printing

A USB hub is a device that expands a single Universal Serial Bus (USB) port into several in order to have more ports available to connect devices to a host system. USB hubs are often built into equipment such as computer cases, monitors, keyboards or any other similar device. If such a device has many USB ports it usually stems from one or two internal USB hubs because in other case each port would need its own independent USB circuitry.… Read More »TECOS DESIGNS NEW HOUSING FOR USB HUB’s
