贾比尔to develop 3D printing materials, establishes AM Materials Innovation Center

贾比尔全球制造服务公司已在明尼苏达州建立了一个材料创新中心,以开发添加剂制造的聚合物丝和粉末。雷电竞充值这个50,000平方英尺的设施将生产Jabil工程材料,专门满足客户需求。

3D Printing Industry caught up with the Vice President of Digital Manufacturing at Jabil to learn more.

“One of the biggest hurdles of additive manufacturing adoption is materials,” said John Dulchinos,贾比尔的数字制造副总裁。

“贾比尔(Jabil)利用其在材料科学创新方面的丰富历史来推进整个增材制造市场,并在数周(几个月)内生产定制材料。”雷电竞充值

“我们将新工程材料整合到3D打印机和严格流程的生态系统中的能力将改变新一代的添加剂制造应用程序,包括用于严格管制的行业,例如航空航天,汽车和医疗保雷电竞app下载健。雷电竞充值

The Materials Innovation Center maintains over 20 industrial open source 3D printers as well as approximately 40 employees comprising of engineers, chemists, and materials scientists. As an ISO 9001 certified facility, the facility will evaluate, qualify and validate 3D printing materials with certified machines and processes for specific application requirements.

Within its characterization laboratory, Jabil Engineered Materials are altered to demonstrate characteristics such as flame retardancy, conductivity, lubrication, and Electrostatic Dissipativity (ESD).

Ultimately, Jabil intends to develop unique materials while reducing time-to-market and cost to produce the optimal parts. This approach will deliver custom materials in approximately two weeks as opposed to the previous six-month span. The材料在贾比尔外部设施中分别分别制造。

In addition, the newly established center offers services includingcompounding, extrusion and powder creation as well as complete system integration on standard, open source FFF and SLS platforms.

Richard D’Aveni, 这巴卡拉战略教授Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College评论了Jabil的材料创新中心和工程材料:

“As an emerging digital manufacturing powerhouse, Jabil is clearing the major obstacles to delivering robust, certifiable, traceable production solutions for additive manufacturing.”

“By smoothly interconnecting 3D printing machines, processes and materials across its global Additive Manufacturing Network, Jabil is poised to propel the entire additive manufacturing market forward with speed and agility.”
