>>>Just general questions, if you announce an Airbus PR, why would you have to cut your offering price to .80 cents?
Does this mean JR knows this if a fluff PR and no sales to Airbus or anyone are soon?
We can't get any serious big investor interested in anything above .80?
Is sglb so desperate for money they had to do this?
Or is this par for the course to raise money?
Thanks to the board.
GLTA <<<
I believe we will know the reason soon and anyhow JR is fully responsible for that PPS disaster and if it was by intention (potential Buyer want to buy cheap shares) may be SEC will have some questions...
May be the new CFO (what was his name?) will be soon the next CEO?
>>>Sorry all, but this entire offering and ongoing events just reek of desperation. To undercut the current PPS so hard, just speaks volumes. They could not find anyone to buy their stock, and given they did not use Dawson, even they appear to no longer want to do business with Sigma and that say something as Dawson are pretty crooked themselves....the entire situation screams desperation...I hope they can get themselves straight... <<<
even you are confused about the recent developments...
The PR with Airbus is really great for Sigma...
I believe not to use Dawson any more is the influence of the new CFO and not more for what reason ever (people involved in decision making are mostly the reason for strange developments)…
I believe we will be back to normal soon!
Why the sticky with Airbus was removed and who the hell think it is not important any more?
Welcome back Z!
The management shake the tree to get rid of those shareholders always complaining everything...
I think the new CFO is doing a good job...
This time it is not a classical sell off
This time it is a doubtful action by a new CFO and authorized by a CEO
Both reported to SEC?
Thanks for that infos
>>>I think you might have a bloated idea of what a moderator's duties are. <<<
I had to check with translate your nice wording "bloated"
so what are the duties of Moderators?
>>>Well expressed!
All longs feel the same.
There is no room for debate as to what you stated. <<<
can you as a Moderator address this to JR?

The good thing on that push down is that everybody gets more relaxed...
The boiling frog is a fable describing a frog being slowly boiled alive. The premise is that if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it will jump out, but if the frog is put in tepid water which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death. The story is often used as a metaphor for the inability or unwillingness of people to react to or be aware of sinister threats that arise gradually rather than suddenly.

next week I will have a business trip to South Korea and someone told me some favorite food there is the alive boiled white dog as it should be more delicious...
0.8$ is better than expected...
The good thing on that push down is that everybody gets more relaxed...
I think a little action on this board would be nice...

>>>Will the shares be valued at this price when the market opens? <<<
the shares will be valued always with a price at openings...
I think Dentist Schwarz sold all his shares yesterday to rebuy double amount today...he might be a Genious...
>>> Great news re AIRBUS.<<<
this news makes AIRBUS even greater against Boeing…
with the help of little punished Sigma...
yes and Boeing do have more and more quality issues...

This partnership comes months after Sigma Labs joined the Fraunhofer IAPT Additive Alliance network, of which Airbus is also involved with.
>>>Yes, Airbus is a great name. IMHO, If they could follow it up with another EU RTE this week, things would get crazy. <<<
just imagine suddenly SLM, Trumpf and EOS agreed in a common approach to use Sigma Labs...
@Objective Observer: this would be great as we still have time until End of Aug...
>>> Also very interesting that Airbus allowed Sigma to use their name out front <<<
agreed, that is wonderful...
Remember: Airbus is using mainly EOS machines like Siemens do...
we are back at the German Connections...
Just relax it is Summer time with a nice Sigma rally...
Some are out who cares...
Nice volumn Premarket, just enjoy the nothingburger ride...
Will be not easy to return...
Fasten seat belts for take off!!!
>>>Thankfully, the industry will dictate the timing of sales and you won't. Once the industry appreciates the price vs ROI relationship for PR3D, sales will happen. Not before and not on your timeline. Relax. <<<
exactly!
>>>Before or after they run out of money? <<<
this is the wrong question...
one can only ask themselves do I want to be invested in that great company or not (believe in the story or not)...
The story just starts...

>>>only German Co's are participating...

here is the story:
Unlike most company founders, not only does Langer not initially have a finished product, he doesn't even have a prototype. But what he does have is the burning conviction that his idea will be the solution to the challenges faced by key players in the manufacturing industry.
So BMW is the perfect first EOS customer. The Bavarian car manufacturer is desperately looking for a stereolithography machine (a type of resin-based 3D printer) that meets its specifications having failed to find what it needs on the American market. Wolfgang Reitzle, former development manager at BMW, has the foresight to believe in Langer's vision and provides the venture capital for the construction of a laser stereolithography machine designed exclusively to meet BMW's requirements – a machine that currently only exists on paper.
Once commissioned, it is soon evident that the Gräfelfing premises are far too small for the task in hand, so in the same year, the company relocates to nearby Planegg, to the premises of Langer's former employer General Scanning. In order to create more space for his development and systems, Langer also rents a garage.
Based on this philosophy, EOS establishes a cooperation with the machine manufacturer Trumpf GmbH & Co. KG, complete with patent cross-license – this enables Trumpf to distribute its own system for laser metal fusion.

>>>Curious? So do the metal printer manufacturers loan out their printers for $20k for 8-10 months to prove they work? M, post 8, D 1 <<<
I can not confirm that but what I heart is that leasing contracts are not that unusual...
e.g. EOS starts there business like this with BMW long time ago (I even can find that story but not now)
>>>Don’t know who said it “software is like a joke if you have to explain it, it isn’t an any good” <<<
Who said this was wrong or a fool. For new developing critical process applications software can only be successful if the process is completely understood, tested and optimized! Even if that happens process software needs to be fine tuned for each single process application...
>>>Happy hunting Kanya! Sooner enough Sigma will be rocking. Who knows when <<<
Yes and that will be may be already during Summer time...
I also did not expect that fast development...
>>>It doesn’t take 10-18 months to prove out a $100k a software/hardware implementation. The ROI isn’t there. What they don’t trust DARPA? M post 6, 1 d <<<

>>>Greetings, Kanya ..and happy Sunday to you in Thailand??? Germany???
I am in a cheerful and giving mood. I will go to the Western Union office and wire 10,000 U.S. dollars to you...IF...you can show me proof that SIGMA will be inside all GERMAN machines. No Kidding. I'll give you until August 31st for the proof.
Have a nice day.
GLTA <<<
I am working on it!
The Germans are now under pressure even during Summer to improve declining business...
I will remind you on your promise...
>>>Honeywell is still the major partner working with Sigma on Contour. I guess no updates mean the project was cancelled???
As far as RTE contracts go, from the beginning (ie, November 2018), I assumed it would take 12-18 months from initial test to role out over production lines. This timeline is similar to the one in the Dawson report, where they expect the first large unit sale to occur in 2H 2019. PrintRite is positioned as part of the value chain, so the timing makes sense based on where the industry is at. <<<
...Contour is not the major topic in the moment...
>>>You have to have the software installed on a machine making money to compare.
Right now I’d GE has a sun lamp. Sigma still trying light a match. M, post 4 <<<
Sigma installed software and hardware packages on various machines since 2015...
>>>Right now I’d GE has a sun lamp.<<< not so clear English? I teach my two sons as non native English speaker quite successful...
I think GE do use the most expensive lamp and do have to improve...
For my understanding with Sigma Labs software as CL is not working...
>>>Positive would be a sale. Every thing else is just smoke. IMHO, You do realize PR firms pay people to post positive spins, on stock boards, usually by number of posts. Oops, I don’t get paid, but, M, that was post 3 for the day... <<<
depressed that you not get paid?
May be your image is not yet depressed enough?

>>>ViperSteve, The company doesn’t have the brain power to “close the loop”, and it’s already been done.... check my previous posts. <<<
lets see who will show the brain power to close the loop in powder bed fusion technology (as I can see it is only little Sigma so far and working with leading software giant Materialise and others like Fraunhofer to reach that target)
