Höganäs installs 3D printer for CETIM

A 3D printer developed by Höganäs has successfully been installed at CETIM, the French industrial institute. The printer is part of a license agreement that was signed last year.

The printer, a Digital Metal® P2000 is equipped with an upgraded build box, upgraded ink supply system as well as upgraded powder handling system.

- It is a covered printer, reducing the noise level dramatically, says Hans Kimblad, technical sales manager at Höganäs. The required safety footprint is also smaller compared to the open printer concept.

CETIM is an industrial institute based in St Etienne, France, that is very active in promoting new technology to its member companies.
