Carbon3D technology uses light and oxygen to grow objects from a pool of resin


3D printing breakthrough


A new approach to 3D printing promises to deliver commercial quality manufactured parts at a much faster rate. Silicon Valley-based Carbon3D’s Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP) technology harnesses light and oxygen to continuously grow objects from a pool of resin instead of printing them layer-by-layer. It says the technique is 25-100 times faster than conventional 3D printing, and can deliver commercial quality objects with consistent mechanical properties. A broad range of polymeric materials can be used to manufacture complex parts. The technique works by carefully balancing the interaction of UV light,

Hunter Douglas facades offer a wide range of shapes, joint options, materials, fi nishes and colours. Its Quadroclad range consists of honeycomb core panels with facings in coated or anodized aluminium, zinc and stainless steel. The panels are lightweight and offer a high level of fl atness, even on very large panels. Sizes can go up to 1,500mm width x 10m in extreme cases, with a sharp fi nish and clean lines. A variety of fi xing systems are available. MPF, or Multiple Panel Format, offers a plank style, single skin panel in the same range of metals as Quadroclad. It is a versatile panel with widths from 150mm to 600mm x 6m maximum length. Joints can be opened or closed and played to good architectural effect, according to Hunter Douglas.
