Using 3D printing for architecture
“High throughput, high temperature, a wide variety of materials, 24/7 production possibilities, and relatively low weight make it an ideal extruder for us.” Joris Burger, PhD Researcher, Gramazio Kohler Research at ETH Zurich.
3D printed molds with Polypropylene 30% short glass fibers
"We are now 3D printing molds using 30% short glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene and cutting our labor time by 50%." György Juhász, owner of Rapid Prototyping
Large-scale 3D printed bridge
"Fiber-reinforced polymer bridges are already well known for having a longer lifetime expectancy with lower life cycle costs compared to steel bridges. What’s new here is the use of a new 3D printing technology, enabling us to print large-scale fiber reinforced thermoplastic part." Maurice Kardas, Business Development Manager at Royal HaskoningDHV
More sustainable production with new CEAD 3D printer
"We certainly consider CEAD as a partner. As a composite-company we have less experience with thermoplastics. We discovered CEAD has done much more research on the material than us, and that is one of the reasons why we will keep working together." Michiel de Bruijcker, Director at Poly Products
3D printing molds and tooling for aviation and aerospace applications
"The CEAD printer extends our capabilities towards larger parts, higher fiber contents and a wider range of polymers. The CEAD system was delivered very quickly — from order to installation was only 6 months." Patrick Consul, LCC researcher at TUM
