Formnext 2022: SamyStudio adapted to WAAM

· 1 min read · Samylabs

From 15 to 18 November 2022 we were at Messe Frankfurt for Formnext, the unmissable meeting point for additive manufacturing. We did not go as exhibitors: we were there thanks to two companies we work with.

On Addilan's stand, hall 12.0, stand C11, our SamyStudio software could be seen adapted to WAAM technology for the first time. That year Addilan presented 3DLAN on its machines, software specific to WAAM, which carries all of their WAAM experience and is built on SamyStudio, the software we develop for our LPBF printers.

On Nippon Gases' stand there was a selection of cases and parts made with the ALBA 300.

Another manufacturer building their software on top of yours says something concrete about that software. It is the kind of validation you do not ask for: it either happens or it does not.
