Industrial injection molding is an advanced manufacturing process that delivers consistent and reliable results even in mass production. When it comes to glucose monitors, the shape, size and durability of every component must be perfect and this is possible thanks to industrial injection molding.
Learn how a Turkish manufacturer transformed its inspection workflow using our 3D scanning solutions—achieving sub-millimeter accuracy, real-time results, and full control over large composite part inspections.
A new type of tissue-engineered cardiac patch could not only seal defective areas of the heart, as has been the case up to now, but also heal them. An interdisciplinary team led by ETH Zurich has successfully implanted the patch in animals.
What is 3D printing? This article goes over the basics of 3D printing, otherwise known as additive manufacturing, covering its engineering principles and applications.

From Functional Prototypes to Complex, Low-Volume Parts.
Nylon parts are used widely, but when standard nylon is not tough enough, glass filled nylon is a good candidate. This polyamide engineering plastic offers higher strength, stiffness and heat resistance by adding powdered glass to nylon resin or compounding nylon with glass fibres.
MJF 3D printing is a polymer powder-bed fusion process engineered for high throughput and mechanical consistency. Unlike legacy methods, it delivers functional, end-use parts with near-isotropic properties, making it a highly viable alternative to injection molding for low-to-mid volume production.
When you are manufacturing components for mining, power stations, and heavy industry, getting the dimensions right is only part of the job. The bigger question is whether a new component will actually fit where it needs to go.
