News

Matsuura Machinery will be exhibiting two UK firsts at this year’s TCT show, which takes place on 24-26 September at the Birmingham NEC. From stand C110, the company will be performing live 3D colour printing on the HP 580 and HP 5200 Multi-Jet Fusion 3D printers, both of which are making their debut appearance. Matsuura will also be showcasing a variety of parts produced on HP 540, HP 580, HP 4200 and HP 5200 models, as well as Matsuura’s Lumex hybrid 3D metal printing and CNC milling machines.

HP Multi-Jet Fusion 3D printers are designed for prototyping, short-run and full production needs, with high productivity to meet same-day demands.

Recently, Matsuura officially opened its new showroom and dedicated Additive Manufacturing Facility (AMF), following a substantial investment. Visitors to the showroom can see live printing demonstrations on the HP 540, HP 4200 and 5200 Multi-Jet Fusion 3D printers, alongside a DyeMansion finishing system for de-powdering, surfacing and colouring of 3D printed parts.

Joseph Bellis, additive manufacturing technical specialist at Matsuura Machinery, says: “Even more so with the recent addition of the HP 5200 3D printer, Matsuura continues to make substantial investments in 3D printing technologies. TCT will be a great opportunity to demonstrate our technical applications knowledge, our understanding of 3D printing and show UK companies the future of manufacturing.”
