BigRep Product Designer Marco Mattia Cristofori wanted to develop an object to show the benefit of 3D printing for industrial use,  the BigRep wheel rim. An alternative to CNC-machining a prototype, he wanted to design the wheel rim prototype for large-scale 3D printing. Customisation of vehicle features is very popular. However, prototyping these custom parts is often expensive and time-consuming. With 3D printing it becomes a much easier process to design automotive prototypes for form checks and molding. (more…)

The Manufacturing And Engineering Community Returns In Style

The long awaited MACH exhibition saw thousands attend to experience the very latest in manufacturing technologies and advanced engineering. "The feeling that optimism is growing in the manufacturing and engineering sectors was certainly not misplaced on the final day of MACH, as bumper levels of business have been transacted during the show." MACH It was a great opportunity for Emvio to show off the capabilities of both the SYIL X7 and BigRep ONE machines. We were lucky enough to have 'The UK Machinist' swing by for a demo of the SYIL X7, as well as seeing past, current and future customers! (more…)
