At RAPID + TCT, Impossible Objects unveiled its new generation 3D printer, the CBAM-2, capable of faster printing on a larger area with high-strength composites. The new machine has bulk ink cartridges and automatic powder filling, giving it greater autonomy between refills. “It’s a very significant improvement. It gets us closer to our goal of ‘set it and forget it’” says Bob Swartz.

In the grand tradition of refinement, designers continue to boil down the essence of flight beyond the fluid beauty of a set of feathered wings. Stripping back the essence even further to the point that aerodynamics don’t vaguely register as an afterthought. As impeccably bereft as these marks are of any semblance of flight, I like them for what they are, and I get that they’re wings. Canted forward in an aerodynamic crouch or swept back fighting the vagaries of gale force headwinds, these forms are equally as far and as near to reality as you can be at once.

It wasn’t just the sharp mind to instinctively deliver the ball into the path of the Belgian but also the assertiveness which put him in a position to do so in the first place.

The hard, non-metallic inclusions found in conventional steel can cause considerable wear of machine tools whereas the M-Steel treatment transforms them into softer, calcium containing inclusions. The main role of these inclusions is to aid machinability as they create a beneficial protective layer between the tool and the chip interface that very significantly reduces tool wear, with a consequent increase in tool life.

IRA FLATOW: That’s hotter than room temperature. That’s like almost 85, 90 degrees Fahrenheit, something like that. 

"This year’s Precision Machining Competition broke many barriers tonight," said TMA Chairman Rich Hoster. "We had a record setting 22 high schools compete and five women competitors placed in the top three in their respective competitions. The next generation of manufacturers continues to increase which means our industry of makers and doers will continue to thrive. These students have an incomparable opportunity to enter high-paying, high-performance jobs in high-tech manufacturing for decades to come."

On top, the polished steel slide is engraved with rear cocking serrations. The “T9” emblem is embossed in bold style, while the “Elite” designation, engraved in cursive, is quite subtle. The Elite model sports Novak tritium, three-dot night sights, with the rear one being windage-adjustable. The front sight dot appears rather large in daylight, with a light-colored ring around the tritium insert. In darkness, the glowing dots all appear to be the same size.

High schools that participated in this year’s competition included Cary-Grove, Elk Grove, Hampshire, Harvard, Homewood-Flossmoor, Jefferson (Rockford), John Hersey, Lake Park, Leyden East, Leyden West, Maine East, Maine West, McHenry East, McHenry West, Palatine, Rich East, Rolling Meadows, Schaumburg, South Elgin, Streamwood, Wheeling, and Woodstock.
