Boston, MA 04\/30\/2014 (wallstreetpr) –\u00a03D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD)<\/b> has shipped more than two dozen of the company\u2019s ProX\u2122 Series Direct Metal printers to big vehicle tire makers.<\/p>\n
3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) has announced that it has delivered more than two dozen of printers to leading tire makers in a period of some months. 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) has led to important innovation in the manufacturing and development of very complicated tread molds. The ProX series allows complex tread designs to be printed as tools for production, for making tires that could create performance and safety benchmarks, with significant ease as compared to the usual processes.<\/p>\n
Advantages Over Traditional Processes<\/b><\/p>\n
Tire makers have traditionally relied on conventional metal castings that needed time lead and price to make even simple tread patterns or to develop new tread geometries for tires. However, 3D metal printers allow developing new designs for complicated tread segments with significant ease. In addition, testing and production of tread segments can be carried out rapidly with these printers. ProX 300 provides the possibility of an important design element, sipes, which tire manufacturers continuously try to balance so as to gain performance targets and result in a wide range of tread options and tire molds. The printers also help save time manifolds in high volume design.<\/p>\n
The ProX 3D printer series are designed to suit the most critical production applications which demand functional and highly dense metal parts with the productivity, precision and performance which could compete with CNC. 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) produce tire moulds having sharpest edges, thinnest walls and most complicated internal venting. It also offers details finished with a smooth outer surface finish that stands out from any conventional manufacturing processes as well as from rivals\u2019 offerings. The series also has choice supporting as many as 15 metals which include alumina, precious metals, non- ferrous alloys, super alloys, stainless steel and tool steel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
