IN(3D)USTRY Commits to Bringing 3D Printing to All Industrial Sectors
The second edition of IN(3D)USTRY From Needs to Solutions, which will be held from 3 to 5 October in Hall 3 at the Fira de Barcelona's Gran Via venue, will present the best success stories made possible thanks to the application of advanced and additive manufacturing in four industrial sectors (Automotive, Aeronautics, Retail and Health).
The second edition of IN(3D)USTRY From Needs to Solutions, which will be held from 3 to 5 October in Hall 3 at the Fira de Barcelona's Gran Via venue, will present the best success stories made possible thanks to the application of advanced and additive manufacturing in four industrial sectors (Automotive, Aeronautics, Retail and Health).
IN(3D)USTRY will feature the participation of companies such as Sony and Adidas (Retail), Seat (Automotive), Tractivus (Health) and Thales Alenia (Aeronautics) who will share their experiences and the results achieved through the application of advanced and additive manufacturing. They will also present their future challenges to the event's exhibitors, large manufacturers of such machinery and actors in the value chain of this emerging sector.
The show's director, Miquel Serrano said that "IN(3D)USTRY is aiming to be the meeting point for identifying the challenges posed by companies from the automotive, aeronautics, retail and health sectors and the solutions offered by all the players, from printer manufacturers to software developers and the creators of robots, for example." In addition, Fira de Barcelona's event and the Leitat Technological Center are the founding members of Hybrick, a business accelerator, launched in 2016 for projects that are based on this technology.
The event will feature the IN(3D)USTRY Arena, the show's large innovation area which was a great success at the previous edition. This will be the setting for the various talks and presentations provided, and will include an exhibition of all kinds of products from next-generation 3D printers to the manufacturers of machine tools, and all the companies that are part of the advanced and additive manufacturing value chain.
IN(3D)USTRY 2017 also features the prestigious Reshape awards, a competition that aims to promote the use of wearable technologies. The members of the jury will include the Dutch 3D textile designer, Cecilia Raspanti; the American artistic creator, Grace Jun, and the Scottish architect, Adrian Welch, who will participate also as speakers.
With the aim of bringing advanced and additive manufacturing to all industrial sectors, the 2017 edition will be held as part of Barcelona Industry Week, made up of Expoquimia, dedicated to the chemical industry, Eurosurfas, the surface treatment event, Equiplast, dedicated to the plastics industry and IoT Solutions World Congress, on the industrial Internet.
Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
