Reimagining Additive Manufacturing with Reactive Polymer Systems
ThomasNet | September 19, 2019
Magnum Venus Products, a leading manufacturer of composites application equipment, collaborated with Polynt and the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory to deploy the first large-scale reactive polymer additive manufacturing system commercially available to industry. MVP's Reactive Additive Manufacturing machine, first announced in March, and Polynt's Reactive Additive Deposition material together are reimagining additive manufacturing to enable fabrication of thermoset materials at large-scale. To showcase the new additive technology, Polynt and MVP co-hosted a launch event on September 17 for industry leaders and partners to experience the system at DOE's Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at ORNL. The event offered live demonstrations and discussions with the research team behind the RAM machine and PRD1520 material.
