What happens in 3D printing is that in the future there will be not only “4D printing” , which can change 3D-printed objects with time. Soon, it will also be possible to use erasable ink for 3D printing. Deleteable ink in 3D printing The talk is of the 3D printing process by “direct laser writing”. […]

The delivery of parcels with drones was only science fiction a few years ago. But it seems to become more and more concrete. Gradually all possible problems are solved, but some still exist here and there. Example: The sending of the packet directly at the receiver. The risk of collision with other objects or even persons is too […]

It was clear that even the 3D printing would someday be an “old hat”. A process developed by researchers at ETH Zurich now allows 4D printing – “printing in four dimensions”. The point is that the 3D-printed objects can change in time depending on their shape. For example, they fold from a flat kit to […]

The right set-up seminars are offered about set-up time optimization. Here, specialists and executives from production, production planning, production control and logistics methods are to become acquainted with employee qualification and strategies for set-up time minimization. De facto, however, the set-up time always depends on the design of the machine. Because when the machine must be manually […]
