3. Industrial composite 3D printing
EnvisionTEC introduced its SLCOM 1, an industrial composite 3D printer. It uses a patent pending process known as Selective Lamination Composite Object Manufacturing. It is targeted at applications with “demanding mechanical and environmental properties that can only be delivered from woven composites.” The SLCOM technology builds composite parts using layer-by-layer laminated thermoplastic composite fabric sheets from a roll. It can build parts to the following maximum dimensions: 24 in. x 30 in. with a 24 in. height.
