3D4P (3D Printing by Precision Powder Pressing) - unique technological leap for Additive Manufacturing

The project supports energy and resource efficient production processes. A completely new technology for Additive Manufacturing enables reduced waste products, higher quality, reduced post processing, a better working environment and higher automation. It contributes to AM reaching its full potential.

The project is based on a new, patented technology based on research from Linköping University. Proof of concept has been conducted, ie we know that the technology works, a market research has been done to identify how the technology best meet needs and challenges.

In the project, performed together with LiU, a prototype will be constructed to test and evaluate the technology in two segments at industrial companies. The project lays the foundation for commercialization of the new technology and enables further research and studies.

The solution has potential to contribute to 80% less waste, shortened process time, lower energy consumption and costs as well as increased productivity
