The MTC will continue to drive the additive manufacturing revolution in the UK.
The Coventry-based centre has added the revolutionary new HP Jet Fusion 4200 to its extensive additive manufacturing armoury, which has been supplied by Europac 3D.
Recently crowned ‘Innovation of the Year’ at the inaugural 3D Printing Industry Awards in London, the printer will be housed in the MTC’s National Centre for Additive Manufacturing, which recently agreed a partnership to be the benchmarking centre for the European Space Agency.
HP’s new kit - ‘a digital furnace of the next industrial revolution’ - will transform 3D printing as it claims it can deliver components up to 10 times faster than current processes, improve print quality and do so at half the cost.
To showcase the speed, accuracy and quality of the HP Jet Fusion, the MTC and Europac 3D staged a successful industry open day on Thursday July 13, which attracted representatives from a number of high-profile organisations.
The machine will play a key role within the MTC and enable the innovation centre to further push the boundaries in this technology, as well as opening up new opportunities to promote its capability and usage across a range of industry sectors. The printer will be available to all companies interested in testing the technology and the capabilities of 3D printing.
