Reminds me of a quote by Daan Kersten of AI a while back
About this partnership, Kersten remarked, “We monitor the melt pool through a solution developed by our partner Sigma Labs, because they’re experts in that field. There’s no reason why we would reinvent the wheel if it’s already been invented by someone else.”
Sigma allows a part to be certified, that is encouraging for an OEM, proving parts on their machine are of certifiable quality is a bonus. Having an independent inspection tool verifying this doesn't have to be a negative for an OEM. NOT having it may prove detrimental when a large part of the market does use PR3D down the line however. We are understanding just how complex the making process is, and how every part is different and each build capable of distortion. A market wide part certification tool such as PR3D in the supply chain could be of INCREDIBLE value as the industry tries to move beyond machine inconsistencies and start actually producing. Allowing the entire supply chain to be on the same page regardless of the machine/the process/the material they are using.
