From Materialise two days ago"...over the years we’ve generated a lot of internal data and artificial intelligence (AI) to help us understand the full production workflow, which we then use to build better algorithms and better technology for the entire market. We call this our ‘internal kitchen,’ and it has proven to be a strong advantage when it comes to designing solutions for Industry 4.0. Notably, all this connectivity and data generation allows for parts to be qualified during production. If something goes wrong, we’re able to figure out exactly where the problem is and intervene – machines can be stopped, saving material, time, and money. But on the flip side, if nothing goes wrong, we also know that everything went well.

Today the real winners are the ones who are daring to jump – the ones who are willing to fully embrace 3D printing technology into their manufacturing environments. The software is mature enough for managers to see the real benefits from productivity and connectivity and we want to be there with you helping to evolve the Industry 4.0 ecosystem."

"Materialise is proud to announce a new partnership with Sigma Labs, Inc. to integrate Streamics with Sigma Labs PrintRite3D® products to improve services for metal-based Additive Manufacturing. Sigma Labs is a developer of advanced, real-time quality inspection systems for metal-based 3D Printing, working primarily with the North American aerospace industry. Growth in the area of high-performance, metal-based parts is currently limited by quality, geometry and productivity. This new agreement aims to improve these areas by capitalizing upon Streamics’ ability to optimize manufacturing efficiency and integrate costly post-production quality inspection stages into the initial manufacture.

Karel Brans, Strategic Partnership Manager of Materialise, notes, “With Streamics automation and control system, the platform supports the workflow in an AM environment, automating several steps along the way and assuring quality and traceability. Linking the Sigma Labs PrintRite3D® product to our software platform enables our mutual users to benefit from this valuable technology from within their trusted Materialise environment.”

Materialise and Sigma Labs, Inc. hope that this partnership will encourage users in the broader AM market to discover the advantages of metal-based 3D Printing and help them achieve their in-process quality inspection needs more quickly, reliably and affordably. We are pleased to work with Sigma Labs to help bring this quality inspection software technology to market"
