New software provides both GUI and Scriptable methods for printer preparation, and enables programmable automation for repeatable and traceable parts. CBAM 25 + Dyndrite delivers on next-generation speed of AM end-use part production.
Seattle, WA., April 24th, 2023. Dyndrite™, providers of the core Accelerated Computation Engine (ACE) and Application Development Kit (ADK) used to create next-generation digital manufacturing hardware and software today announced that Impossible Objects, a 3D printer and materials company pioneering advancement of composites in additive manufacturing, has chosen Dyndrite ADK software to power its new high-speed composite-based additive manufacturing (CBAM) 25 process.
The CBAM 25 process represents a breakthrough in AM end-use part production. It exceeds the durability needs of engineers seeking stronger, lighter parts, in replacement of aluminum and tooling, while doing so 15x faster than competitive AM processes. In addition, the process operates at room temperature, is easy to operate and simple to maintain. CBAM uses roll-fed inkjet technology providing a continuous printing rate of 25 feet per minute, or nearly 11,000 cm^3/hr of parts printed per hour.
“Impossible Objects pioneered the CBAM process, bringing an unprecedented level of part durability to additive manufacturing. Our new CBAM 25 process now operates fifteen times faster than the nearest competitor, while delivering the superior material properties required for industrial-grade end-use parts, said Robert Swartz Founder and Chairman of the Board at Impossible Objects. “For a speed comparison, this is the difference between the fastest human and a Formula 1 car in covering a mile. This achievement is not only a great feat for Impossible Objects, but for our industry - it moves 3D printing into a new category of volume manufacturing.”
Impossible Object’s “Rules-based Automated Masking Packing and Slicing” (on-RAMP) software, powered by Dyndrite, integrates the multi-threaded, GPU-accelerated, Python-based Accelerated Computation Engine from Dyndrite with Impossible Object’s proprietary software to drive its unique CBAM process. The CBAM software powered by Dyndrite delivers an easy to use GUI and automated CAD-to-print workflows. Benefits include faster processing of native CAD 3D data, reductions in tedious manual labor, automated labeling and nesting that optimizes build space and minimizes scrap, and customizable workflows that allow significantly faster time to a first part. With Dyndrite, Impossible Objects created an automated CAD-to-print workflow with a build time ten times faster than before, a 90% reduction in manual labor and improved build block use by 20%.
“Dyndrite was the perfect partner for supplying software to match our new high speed process," continued Robert Swartz. “Their team and software augmented our own internal team enabling us to focus on what differentiates us, and keep our IP internal while leveraging their powerful ADK toolsets. The result is a high performance hardware, software and materials solution that puts automated durable end-use AM part production in the hands of users worldwide.
“CBAM 25 and Dyndrite is an example of next generation solutions emerging that provide engineers new capabilities at speed,” said Harshil Goel, CEO and Founder, Dyndrite. “We’re delighted to continue our work with the fantastic Impossible Objects team, giving them superpowers to focus on what makes their machine special.”
Impossible Objects will be presenting the CBAM 25 at RAPID +TCT booth #4024 in Chicago May 2nd - 5th 2023. CBAM 25 machines will be available in early 2024. Customers can begin ordering parts immediately at https://www.impossible-objects.com/
Dyndrite software is compatible with all existing CBAM machines.
