Automotive, aviation, and other transportation will utilize this tech in so many ways. Not only does it allow for a more repeatable process but it pushes further towards automation going forward. Really impressive tech.
It is going to revolutionise the manufacturing processes ...and there is not no doubt about that...in my extensive research about additive manufacturing, it actually removes all the weaknesses of 3d printing combining with the advantages of composite strenghts ... an addition of one more domain will make their machine perfect..and that is adding a hybrid head (additive plus subtractive head)... that combination of additive 3d printing head (additive) along with a cnc router (subtractive) will make it virtually all in one machine that can undertake any kind of job ...the perfect machine
Completely feasible with this type of technology! Quality and time can be an issue with some 3D printed composites, but that should be overcome in due course.
Very impressive manufacturing technology. Question is has it reached maturity?! Are there patents to it! and What are the gaps in the technology or areas of improvement! . How can it be used to shift from printing composite components made of different material properties for example; silicon to aluminum, to steel or carbon etc. .
Carbon fiber materials made cheaply compared traditional methods. This could make mass produced carbon fiber cars a reality. Lighter weight means more abilities in electric cars as well! This is were I would like to see the new tech.
This is great BUT you're still working with 2D layers where you are only able to apply unidirektional fibers. This might be suitable for a few applications but isnt the BIG deal in my oppinion.
Thank you for your comment, Lars. The CF3D® process is not just 2D stacking. Our technology skins and orients fibers in the z-direction out of the x and y plane. We are also not limited to unidirectional; CF3D steers the fiber in the direction of the stresses and strains for optimized composite parts.
@@ContinuousComposites 6 axis cobot woven composite developments like at IITM could enable computationally optimized structural parts, which can be climbed on g code paths on the fly, like in the Silk Pavilion. Sure shows 2 axis lines and layers to be the rudiments they are.
How far can your robots go on their own? Feet because if you can program robots coordinations GPS etc. I can see a bunch of robots working together at the same time on large projects like building an aircraft or buildings etc. A program like the ones used to keep a group of drones from crashing into each other while flying.
The idea is great but it is still very costly because of cf3d printing machines and high energy consumption. Energy consumption of these processes is a problem from the beginning hopefully it will be reduced in this industrial revolution.

Very impressive. Can't wait to see what the future holds
This is some really cool technology. Imagine what we can do to benefit society.
Good talk! Exciting to see this technology come to market!

Excellent presentation! Exciting times ahead.
How about printing snap together houses or shelters? Print the individual walls, pre-insulated and wired. Allowing for affordable housing.

Great topic. Amazing technology!

Tyler congratulations, you are very good speaker....you know vey well the topic!.....tks to share it
Woohoo! Nice talk Tyler!

Great talk!
I would like to get connected to use in my industrial production.
Nice talk! How do they do that carbon fiber rolled up?

That is the 3D printer in the television series West World (not for children).
Amazing

Wow!
