Prototyping: Mix & Match

As part designs become increasingly complex, there is a corresponding growing desire to emulate that complexity in the prototyping stage. A novel technology developed by Objet Geometries, Rehovot, Israel, makes that possible to an unprecedented degree. The company’s PolyJet Matrix technology, first employed in its Connex500 system, can simultaneously jet two different materials with different mechanical properties, permitting the prototyping of co-injected or overmolded parts. In addition, the system can blend those two materials in different proportions on the fly, enabling the fabrication of a multiple-material model in a single build.

Boost ACR Energy Efficiency with Copper MicroGroove Tubes

Today's market is challenging manufacturers of air conditioning and refrigeration equipment to increase energy efficiency, use less materials and reduce impact on the environment. The superior heat transfer of smaller-diameter copper tubes with inner grooves is helping manufacturers meet these demands with high-performance compact coils that reduce energy requirements, transfer heat more efficiently and lower costs by using less material while using familiar manufacturing techniques.
