VVGT evening | 3D sand printing for foundries: latest developments and applications

Discover the latest advances in 3D sand printing for foundry applications. Experts from ExOne and Laempe explore binder jetting, hybrid core production, and opportunities for complex castings and small-series manufacturing.

Advances in 3D sand printing for foundries

3D printing of sand moulds and cores is transforming foundry production. Initially used mainly for prototypes and complex geometries, the technology is increasingly applied to small and medium production series and new products designed specifically for additive manufacturing.

During this technical evening, experts from ExOne and Laempe will present recent developments in industrial sand printing, including advances in binder jetting and hybrid core manufacturing. 
 

For whom?

  • Foundry managers and production engineers
  • Casting designers and product development engineers
  • R&D and manufacturing specialists
  • Professionals exploring additive manufacturing for sand moulds and cores
  • Industrial companies looking to optimise casting processes
     

Key takeaways

  • Explore the latest advances in binder jetting for industrial sand printing
  • Understand the potential of 3D-printed sand moulds and cores for complex geometries
  • Discover how conventional and 3D-printed sand cores can be combined in hybrid production
  • Identify opportunities for prototyping, small-series production, and new casting designs
