Siemens continued collaboration in AM space. Might we see a future announcement with SGLB?

PLANO, Texas, and MONTREAL, Feb. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Bombardier, the world's leading manufacturer of trains and aircraft, is working with Siemens to further explore and extend the Teamcenter® portfolio for product lifecycle management (PLM) to optimize its engineering processes to develop, produce and support its products.

Siemens helps global manufacturers facing today's challenge of delivering products that meet technical and performance requirements, at cost and on schedule. Supply chains are continually being transformed to optimize productivity while maintaining a highly dynamic and virtual workforce. Solutions from Siemens PLM Software take advantage of industry-leading practices to enable aerospace companies to manage entire product lifecycles.

Siemens continue advancing into the 3D printing industry via a partnership with 3D printer manufacturers, Trumpf. We take a closer look at the implications for the additive manufacturing world.

German company Trumpf specialize in 3D printing metal, with two different technologies ‘Laser Metal Fusion‘ (LMF) and ‘Laser Metal Deposition‘ (LMD). Their partnership with Siemens will integrate the metal powder-bed-based LMF technology with Siemens PLM’s NX software and is intended to streamline the process of 3D printing metal. Exhibiting at Formnext last year, the 3D printer manufacturer proudly displayed their LMF machines, the TruPrint 3000 and TruPrint 5000. The NX software provides an end-to-end solution for designing and preparing 3D printed metal parts.

Siemens and Materialise have integrated additive manufacturing (AM) technology from Materialise into Siemens’ NX™ software, streamlining the design to manufacturing process for the rapidly growing universe of products being produced using AM (a.k.a. 3D printing). The new solution leverages proven Materialise technology to enable NX computer-aided design, manufacturing and engineering (CAD/CAM/CAE) software to accurately and completely prepare CAD models for powder bed fusion and material jetting 3D printing processes. As a result, the time necessary to go from a completed product design to a fully 3D-printed part could be reduced by 30 percent or more. A partnership agreement between the two companies, announced by Materialise on January 6, 2017, enables Siemens’ product lifecycle management (PLM) software business to sell the integrated solution through its global sales channels.

Building on a longstanding partnership, HP Inc. and Siemens are accelerating 3D printing for industrial production through the creation of a new HP-certified Additive Manufacturing (AM) software module from Siemens. The new software module, Siemens NX AM for HP Multi Jet Fusion, is now available from Siemens PLM Software as an extension to Siemens’ end-to-end design-to-production solution for additive manufacturing. The NX™ software module will allow customers to develop and manage parts in a single software environment for their HP 3D Printing projects, avoid costly and time-consuming data conversions and third-party tools, and improve their overall design-to-finished-part workflow efficiency.
