Choosing a 3D Printing Material for its Temperature-Handling Capabilities

Our choices for 3D Printing materials used to be pretty limited when it came to handling higher temperatures. But now, we don't have to choose between chocolate and vanilla. We now have a wide range of polymers that better fit a broad spectrum of applications.

Check out Pam Waterman's latest blog post on the different options available across the full line of Stratasys Additive Manufacturing Systems.

How To Access Ansys Customer Websites

Ansys is obsessed with helping their customers get the most from their investment in simulation software, so they have a lot of different websites.

PADT's newest addition to our Ansys Support Team, Cortney Harris, created a blog post to sort out the options and provide a smile or two along the way.

3D-Printed GPS Antenna a Pathfinder for Future Satellites

Lockheed Martin has qualified its first complex 3D-printed piece of hardware for spaceflight. The hardware, an omnidirectional antenna for communication relay, has been integrated onto an a GPS III satellite. The form of the new 3D-printed omni antenna is similar to its predecessor, but it’s now one solid piece as opposed to being made up of multiple parts that would otherwise need to be hand-soldered together.
