This week the additive manufacturing industry gathers in Frankfurt, Germany for the annual Formnext tradeshow. In addition to the large and established enterprises are the winners of the2018 FormNext启动挑战。3D打印行业赶上了这些公司，以了解更多信息。
3D打印行业: When was your company founded and where are operations based?
爱德华·莫恩斯·德·哈斯, CEO of Aerosint:这项研究始于2015年1月，作为比利时创业工作室Meak.it的一部分。气吸收was founded in September 2016 and operations are based in Liège, Belgium. Today Aerosint employs 7 engineers (2 phd’s) with complementary skills.
3D打印行业：贵公司做什么？
Matthias Hick, CTO of Aerosint:我们为粉末床融合打印过程开发了另一种重新调子。刀片（坚硬和软）或滚筒等传统的涂涂器只能散布单层层。我们的Recoater可以创建多物质粉末层。Aerosint Recoater依靠粉末素体素的高清晰度沉积。有点像2D打印机正精确地沉积墨水液滴，我们的Recoater做同样的功能，但使用干粉素体素。我们的Recoater与聚合物，金属和陶瓷一起工作。因此，这种重新调子的申请是夸张的。
A multi-material recoater like this, combined with the right multi-material sintering strategy, makes multi-material powder fusion 3D printing at reach. At Aerosint we strongly believe that multimaterial additive manufacturing is the logical evolution of a technology that has been around, with very little innovation, for over 30 years.
是时候制作粉末床融合多物质了！
3D打印行业: How does your company fit into the additive manufacturing ecosystem?
爱德华·莫恩斯·德·哈斯, CEO of Aerosint:We are focussing on the recoating technology and the multi-material applications. We position ourselves as the experts of multimaterial additive manufacturing. Today we can integrate our recoater in existing SLS / SLM systems of companies having an interest in multimaterial applications and looking for the supporting technology to do R&D.
3D印刷行业：您希望从2018年Formnext展览中获得什么收益？
爱德华·莫恩斯·德·哈斯, CEO of Aerosint:我们希望获得我们技术的可见性，并与具有有趣的多材料应用的机器制造商和工业最终用户建立合作伙伴关系。
We basically want everybody to know Aerosint exists and can support multimaterial developments.
3D印刷行业：您如何描述未来几年的企业的路线图？
Matthias Hick, CTO of Aerosint:Today we integrate our recoater in existing SLS / SLM printers for value demonstration. We do this for industrial end-users, R&D centers or Universities having a strong desire to develop multimaterial applications.
As the technology further develops we will address even more opportunities in the multimaterial landscape but also in other industries.
3D打印行业: Is there anything else you would like our readers to know about?
爱德华·莫恩斯·德·哈斯, CEO of Aerosint:有了Aerosint Recoater，多材料不再是一厢情愿的想法。多材料将允许零件优化和功能化，就像其他制造技术无法使用一样。只需考虑将电导率整合到零件或打印材料梯度将刚性与软材料结合或能够局部增强零件的潜力。这些只是像我们这样的多物质技术可以实现的几个示例。
