📌 3D Printing News Briefs, April 8, 2026: LiDAR Scanning, Vapor Smoothing, FDM Optimization, & More
The world of additive manufacturing never stands still. This week’s roundup brings exciting developments from the show floor to the software suite, highlighting trends that could shape your next project. From capturing massive environments to perfecting the final finish, here’s what’s new.
增材制造的世界从未停止前进。本周的综述带来了从展会现场到软件套件的激动人心的发展,重点介绍了可能塑造您下一个项目的趋势。从捕捉大型环境到完善最终表面处理,以下是新动态。
At Manufacturing World Nagoya, Artec 3D launched a game-changer for large-scale digitization: the Artec Jet. This isn’t your average handheld scanner. It’s a survey-grade, SLAM-powered LiDAR system designed for autonomous, precise 3D data capture at an impressive scale.
在名古屋制造世界展上,Artec 3D推出了一款改变游戏规则的大规模数字化设备:Artec Jet。这不是您常见的手持式扫描仪。它是一个测量级、基于SLAM技术的激光雷达系统,专为自主、精确的大规模3D数据采集而设计。
Weighing just 1.57 kg, the Artec Jet boasts a 360° x 290° field of view and IP65 protection. Its standout feature is full autonomy. The scanner can operate on a drone, independently mapping flight paths, maintaining positioning, and avoiding obstacles without human input, perfect for GPS-denied environments. Paired with new software, it aims to create accurate digital twins of any size, from industrial facilities to infrastructure. This technology could revolutionize how we scan and replicate large objects for custom fixtures or architectural models.
Artec Jet仅重1.57公斤,拥有360° x 290°的视场角和IP65防护等级。其突出特点是完全自主性。该扫描仪可在无人机上操作,独立规划飞行路径、保持定位并避开障碍物,无需人工干预,非常适合GPS信号受限的环境。结合新软件,它旨在为任何规模的物体(从工业设施到基础设施)创建精确的数字孪生。这项技术可能彻底改变我们为定制夹具或建筑模型扫描和复制大型物体的方式。
In significant news for advancing the industry, America Makes and the NCDMM announced two new Project Calls totaling $14.5 million in funding.
在推动行业发展的重大新闻中,America Makes和NCDMM宣布了两个新的项目征集,总计提供1450万美元的资金。
These initiatives highlight the ongoing push to make 3D printing more reliable and expand the material palette for professional use.
这些举措突显了持续推动3D打印更可靠并扩展专业应用材料库的努力。
Moving from print to perfect finish is getting easier. Raise3D and Additive Manufacturing Technologies (AMT) have announced a partnership to integrate automated post-processing solutions directly into the Raise3D ecosystem. A key offering will be AMT’s vapor smoothing technology, which can transform the surface finish of FDM parts from layered to smooth.
从打印到完美表面处理正变得更容易。Raise3D和增材制造技术公司(AMT)宣布建立合作伙伴关系,将自动化后处理解决方案直接集成到Raise3D生态系统中。一个关键产品将是AMT的蒸汽平滑技术,该技术可以将FDM部件的表面处理从分层状态转变为光滑状态。
This collaboration signals a growing focus on complete, automated workflow solutions. For creators and engineers, it means less manual labor finishing parts and more consistent, professional results—essential when preparing models for final use or presentation.
此次合作标志着对完整、自动化工作流程解决方案的关注日益增长。对于创作者和工程师来说,这意味着更少的手工部件精加工劳动,以及更一致、更专业的结果——这在为最终使用或展示准备模型时至关重要。
Finally, a new software tool is applying artificial intelligence to help users optimize their FDM 3D prints. The platform generates detailed reports that analyze print parameters, suggest improvements for strength, accuracy, and material usage, and can potentially identify common failure points before they happen.
最后,一款新的软件工具正在应用人工智能来帮助用户优化他们的FDM 3D打印。该平台生成详细报告,分析打印参数,为强度、精度和材料使用提供改进建议,并有可能在常见故障点发生之前识别它们。
This kind of AI assistance is becoming invaluable, especially for users running print farms or those seeking to maximize the quality of their premium STL files. It democratizes expert-level analysis, helping everyone from hobbyists to professionals achieve better, more reliable prints with their existing hardware.
这种AI辅助正变得不可或缺,特别是对于运行打印农场或寻求最大化其优质STL文件质量的用户。它普及了专家级分析,帮助从爱好者到专业人士的每个人,利用现有硬件实现更好、更可靠的打印。
