Cheaper and better production of radar antennas

In a MADE demonstration project together with the Danish Technological Institute, the Danish machine manufacturer Newtec has tested metal 3D printing on two exciting applications: a nozzle in stainless steel and a sorting roller in titanium. For Newtec, the experience from the project was surprising – it turned out that metal 3D printing is both cheaper and further developed than they expected. The experience has already proved useful in other parts of Newtec.

Transforming BKI Foods’ production: QR-codes, reusable coffee bags and roasting data

Denmark’s largest producer of coffee, BKI Foods, has been on a 20-year long journey to digitize their manufacturing process and make it more environmentally friendly. Among the results are the invention of a reusable coffee bag, a new roasting process which reduces energy consumption by 20 pct. and a QR-system which eliminates failures in the packaging process by 95 pct.

Lack of knowledge is the biggest obstacle for a 3D-print breakthrough

Only one out of four manufacturing companies in Denmark uses 3D printing and AM. The biggest barrier to a breakthrough is lack of knowledge about the technology, a recent report from Danish AM Hub shows. MADE members Danfoss and Grundfos address this by upgrading the skills and training of employees to ensure world-class production.
