We are currently living through the 4th Industrial Revolution, known as Industry 4.0, a concept that represents the integration of different technologies and disruptive methods, with the aim of promoting the digitalisation of activities and productive processes, improving and increasing their efficiency and productivity. One of the technologies within this revolution is Artificial Intelligence, which encompasses others such as machine learning, artificial neural networks, computer vision, intelligent robotics, autonomous vehicles, among others. ...

Additive manufacturing, popularly known as 3D printing, plays a crucial role in optimizing industrial processes, not only due to its ability to produce complex and independent parts but also because it significantly reduces the waste of raw materials compared to traditional methods like subtractive manufacturing. ...

It's common to see that 3D printed parts, once completed, reveal a type of texture based on the technology in which they were produced. Depending on the function, it is important that the part's surface has certain characteristics that eliminate the risk of compromising its functionality or that of the assembly it is part of. While various additive manufacturing technologies specialize in building a part with the accuracy and demands associated with quality requirements, surface treatment specializes in enhancing the part of prominent textures or retained waste, and RMN Additive offers the following surface treatment services for additive manufacturing parts. ...

RMN Additive presents a new technology in their 3D printing function panel, which production method sums it up to a sintering process on a polymeric powder through a laser beam, layer by layer. SLS technology (Selective Laser Sintering), primordially developed in the mid 1980’s, and recently innovated for more effective and sustainable needs, is the most preferred technology by industry professionals, due to its productivity and capacity in printing practical and resistant parts. ...

Engineers and product designers develop innovative solutions every day for various projects and applications. During the creation process, professionals focus on finding a limited number of solutions to the problem at hand. However, with the advancement of technology and artificial intelligence, new methods for creating products and solutions have emerged that allow for greater creative freedom and the achievement of complex geometries that were previously challenging to attain. One of these methods is known as Generative Design. ...

At the latest edition of EMAF, the International Trade Fair for Machinery, Equipment and Services for Industry, which took place from 1 to 4 December 2021 at the Exponor exhibition centre, we had the opportunity to talk to Óscar Teixeira, Manufacturing Engineer, Additive Manufacturing at Reiman. He introduced us to RMN Additive, one of Reiman's specialised services dedicated to Additive Manufacturing, better known as 3D Printing. ...

RMN ADDITIVE, REIMAN 3D printing service, has one more material in FDM technology, EON PEKK (PolyEtherKetoneKetone).  ...

Industrial Maintenance consists of a set of operational, technical, and administrative practices aimed at maintaining, replacing, or repairing parts or equipment that perform a function in industrial production processes. ...

The world and technologies are advancing at a galloping pace. Everything that ins’t technological ceases to be interesting and becomes obsolete. This is an evolution that has been reflected in all kinds of sectors, even the most unthinkable. ...

Additive Manufacturing is a 3D printing technology through which it is possible to obtain strong and resistant parts, prototypes, and models. 3D printing begins by designing the part in CAD software that then generates a .stl file. ...
