Desktop Metal has expanded its relationship with CNC software innovator SolidCAM , creator of iMachining toolpath technology. SolidCAM, founded in 1984, has offered Desktop Metal products in Germany since 2021. Now, it will offer Desktop Metal solutions for direct printing of metal to customers in the United States, where SolidCAM has technology centers at its US headquarters in Newton, Pennsylvania, and Rancho Cucamonga, California, as well as the United Kingdom, Israel, and India. New CNC + AM Center of Excellence showrooms are being completed in Pennsylvania, Germany, and the UK to demonstrate how Desktop Metal’s AM 2.0 solutions complement traditional subtractive machining technology and workflows. Additional facilities are slated for completion in California, Israel, and India. “The Desktop Metal team is delighted to announce an expansion of our relationship with SolidCAM, a brand that is long trusted by machinists worldwide,” said Ric Fulop, founder and CEO of Desktop Metal. “This expanded partnership means that more CNC professionals will learn how easy it is to 3D print and sinter complex designs on our Studio System and Shop System metal AM offerings, freeing up capacity on CNC equipment, as well as machinist’s time. Additive manufacturing technology is truly complementary to machining, and we’re eager to deliver that message to the market in partnership with SolidCAM.” “Our Schramberg Technology Center has already added a Desktop Metal Studio System to its current CNC machines, and we’re in the process of adding more Studio System and Shop System printers to our facilities worldwide so we can demonstrate how this additive manufacturing technology is complementary to CNC machining equipment,” said Dr. Emil Somekh, founder and CEO of SolidCAM. “The growing impact of additive manufacturing has been well documented. During the COVID-19 epidemic, 3D printing played a critical role in repairing vulnerabilities in supply chains, especially in the medical sector, and we think it can help improve the throughput of supply chains that remain challenged today.” SolidCAM will be showcasing Desktop Metal equipment and solutions at IMTS 2022 (booth 134502). Desktop Metal will be showcasing its metal, polymer, and digital metal casting Additive Manufacturing 2.0 solutions at IMTS 2022 (booth 433103 and booth 432212) as well. About the presentation There are a multitude of considerations when choosing the right metrology system, such as an optical comparator or a multi-sensor vision system. Following some straight-forward guidelines for selecting a system will serve machinists and quality control (QC) inspectors well. It’ll also help avoid making costly procurement mistakes. Primary factors include examining budget, application requirements such as accuracy and speed, facility environment, QC data collection objectivity vs subjectivity, and user skill. It’s also important to review the capabilities of the metrology system's software suite and how its features complement the user's application requirements. Automation solutions should also be a consideration, as automation is increasingly being deployed to improve productivity and throughput, such as capturing discrete points on a part's profile to be built into the inspection process as programmable steps.

Carestream Health’s focus on delivering medical imaging solutions that address customer needs has earned the company an award from Frost & Sullivan , a global market intelligence firm. The CARESTREAM Lux 35 Detector, a lightweight, glass-free wireless detector ergonomically designed with the comfort of patients and radiographers in mind, earned the 2022 Frost & Sullivan Global New Product Innovation Award in the digital radiography detector industry. Frost & Sullivan noted the Lux 35 Detector “encompasses all of the attractive features of different digital radiography (DR) detectors in a single solution, making it the industry’s best DR detector.” “The Frost & Sullivan Award is another validation of our research and development team’s continued success at developing solutions that incorporate cutting-edge technology to improve radiology workflow and enhance patient care,” said Dharmendu Damany, chief technology officer at Carestream. “With our first cesium iodide, glass-free Lux 35 Detector for the medical space, we provide a solution that is lightweight and provides resolution and detail, and a reduced exposure as compared with gadolinium detectors.” Weighing about 5 lb (including the battery) the sleek 14” x 17” (35cm x 43cm) Lux 35 Detector with its glass-free sensor is Carestream’s lightest detector to date. The lighter weight makes it easier for radiographers to transport while making rounds and performing bedside exams. Also, the Lux 35 Detector has ergonomic features that reduce stress and fatigue for radiographers, allow easier positioning, and make the exam process more comfortable for patients. The Lux 35 Detector supports image-processing options to assist radiologists, including tube and line visualization, pneumothorax visualization, EVP plus, and bone suppression. It uses Carestream’s ImageView Software powered by Eclipse for high image quality and features the X-Factor, so the detector can be shared with other compatible DRX equipment. Additionally, the Lux 35 detector battery is backwards compatible in that it works with DRX Plus Detectors and uses the same battery charger. Carestream was the first to introduce a wireless cassette-sized detector and continues to lead the way in technology innovation by designing products and solutions that help alleviate customer pain points and make their radiology workflow easier. “Frost & Sullivan applauds Carestream’s commitment to customer prioritization that has successfully culminated in efficient product delivery,” said Ojaswi Rana, best practices research analyst at Frost & Sullivan, which applies a rigorous analytical process to evaluate each nominee for its awards. In its analysis, Frost & Sullivan also noted Carestream’s customer-centric philosophy permeates its daily practices. For example, Carestream’s eXceed Program ensures commitment from every employee to provide the best customer experience. The company works closely with clients, establishing long-term relationships by assessing their needs, developing solutions with roadmaps for seamless execution.
