Our Partner Materialise seems to have their hands all around the AM industry. And Sigma was invited to their Formnext booth to present to their current and prospective customer base? Sure hope this all means big news in the near future.

Below is from the TCT article, the last sentence mentions a software tool that will that will make the New Product Introduction much faster. Are they talking Sigma?

>>>Mass manufacturing continued to come up, as did the vision for future AM factories which, as Bart alluded to earlier, Materialise is seeing first-hand through its own AM facilities. So what kind of role will software play in those future developments? For one, on the materials side, advancements will require input from software so that machines are able to process new formulations correctly. Another is in the development of new products. Bart offers the example of major industries like medical, aerospace and automotive, where accuracy and reliability are crucial but lengthy new product introduction (NPI) processes can mean certain products take years to come to fruition.
“Making a prototype is not complicated but making sure that you can repeat the quality of the prototype over and over again, that is a big challenge," Bart added. "In order to do so, you need to understand very much how you have to set your parameters on the machine in order to have that properly set to get repeatability.”
Though little details have been shared so far, to that end, Materialise is working on a software tool that will make the NPI process much faster.<<<
