FastForm joins the 3rd National Skills Competition

To help students move towards a new future of metal 3D printing manufacturing

2024.12.21

In the near future, the third full-body skills competition in Shanghai selected martial artists, competition officers to select projects, and proposed projects, and the project competition came to a successful conclusion. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the competition, FASTFORM provided comprehensive technical and metal 3d printer equipment support for the whole competition. 

High-quality services and equipment are a solid support for the skills competition. Before the competition, FastForm dispatched a professional team to the competition venue with education-specific metal 3D printing equipment to provide professional equipment operation training and technical guidance to the contestants. This equipment not only meets the requirements of precision manufacturing, but also perfectly adapts to the needs of the education and scientific research fields, broadening the application boundaries of metal 3D printing. In addition, FastForm also showcased the company's successful cases in aerospace, automotive, medical, 3C and other fields, helping contestants broaden their horizons, inspire innovative inspiration, and add highlights to the competition works.

Technical competitions still require more watching, more practice, and more communication. This competition will be used as an opportunity to improve the standardization, scientificization, and professionalization of the city's vocational skills competitions. The organizing committee expressed appreciation for FastForm's one-stop full-process service concept and professional, responsible, and efficient team spirit, which laid a solid foundation for the continued cooperation between the two parties in the future. We look forward to further cooperation with FastForm and jointly contribute to the cultivation of 3D printing technical talents in my country.

FastForm has always adhered to the concept of "software, hardware and process integrated innovation leading a new round of industrial application revolution". In order to implement this goal, the company is not only committed to helping more industries use cutting-edge metal 3D printing technology to empower traditional production lines and achieve industrial transformation and upgrading, but also accelerates the pace of cultivating professional metal 3D printing application technology talents.

The first batch of domestic mass-produced full-stack software self-developed manufacturers

As the only high-tech enterprise in China that integrates software algorithms, control and material processes, each FastForm machine is equipped with the multi-threaded solution software Fastlayer to achieve one-click automatic printing.

⩥ One machine for multiple uses, supporting free switching of multiple powders

To meet the needs of diverse printing and personalized customization, Micron's full range of equipment supports switching printing of multiple metal powder materials, including stainless steel, titanium alloy, copper alloy, aluminum alloy, cobalt-chromium alloy, high-temperature alloy, mold steel, tungsten and other metal powder materials.

⩥ More than ten years of service life, safer, more efficient and convenient

The entire line of products is equipped with the "permanent filter element" of PTFE material with the longest service life on the market. At present, the filter element has achieved a working time of more than 30,000 hours, and the service life and filtration accuracy are both beyond the average level of common filter elements. Reduce users' maintenance costs and environmental burden.

⩥ Unattended operation can also achieve efficient production

Independently developed advanced control software fastfab. The software can monitor the operating status of the filter element in real time, and can monitor key parameters such as substrate temperature and cabin pressure during the printing process in real time, helping users achieve safe and efficient production operations.

⩥ Original LFPT light following technology, 50% efficiency improvement

FastForm's LFPT technology can accurately control the interaction between the light beam and the powder, achieving finer layer thickness control and higher printing accuracy, saving up to 15 seconds per layer, and increasing the overall model processing time by 50%. This technological innovation not only improves production efficiency, but also further stabilizes the printing quality, ensuring the consistency and reliability of the finished product. It has brought revolutionary improvements to the manufacturing of metal parts.

⩥ Open parameter library, factory application examples provide you with backup data support

The massive application examples accumulated by the factory provide you with data support, and the verified process parameters help you quickly optimize the printing process, significantly reduce the cost of trial and error, efficiently optimize the printing process, and improve product quality.

This time, we are honored to provide professional support for the competition throughout the whole process. Special thanks to Shanghai Hangchen Intelligent Manufacturing (a professional competition guidance and skills training company under China Aerospace) for its professional guidance in the aerospace field of this competition. Looking forward to the future, FastForm will continue to deepen its cooperation with the academic community, maintain a friendly strategic partnership with Hangchen Intelligent Manufacturing, increase its efforts to cultivate young additive technology talents, and work together to contribute to the innovation and widespread application of 3D printing technology. FastForm wishes the contestants great success in the next national and even world-class competitions! We look forward to seeing you again in the next competition!
