From the time you were able to drive, your car has been a symbol of independence: being able to go where you want, when you wanted. If your first car was an older vehicle, it is possible you spent a lot of time looking for parts to fix it. Parts stores and local mechanics serve as a lifeline to what has become a necessary utility, and they might soon see a paradigm shift. The automotive aftermarket was $318.2 billion in

HOW WE LEVERAGE HEAT TREATMENT PROCESSES FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING Thermochemical treatment is widely used to improve the mechanical properties of conventionally manufactured metal parts, but what about additively manufactured parts? The GKN Powder Metallurgy R&D team transferred their extensive expertise in powder metallurgy to additive manufacturing (AM). Dr.-Ing. Markus Schneider and Dennis Wawoczny, both highly engaged in AM research, explain what special features should be taken into account for heat treatment of components made by an AM process. (more…)

In the thermal processing industry, a still conservative market, metal 3D printing is not yet considered as serious production process. Kueppers Solutions, an industrial burner technology specialist, is a pioneer in the adoption of metal additive manufacturing. The company has developed a mixing unit for industrial burners to reduce energy consumption and nitrogen oxide emissions. Due to its smart design, it can only be manufactured by metal 3D printing.
