RAPID + TCT, the largest and most influential 3D printing event in North America, is returning to Detroit to showcase the growth of additive manufacturing in the heart of industrial America. The event, produced by SME and owner of The TCT Group, Rapid News Publications Ltd, takes place May 20-23, 2019, at Detroit's Cobo Center, and will gather the world's leading companies to demonstrate the most advanced innovations in additive manufacturing.

Additive manufacturing company XJet Ltd. unveils a new ceramic material, alumina, at formnext today. Following rigorous dialogue with the industry, alumina was chosen for development because of its wide use as a technical ceramic and evident market demand to see parts produced with the benefits of XJet NanoParticle Jetting™ (NPJ) production. Offering very good electrical insulation, extremely high mechanical strength, high compressive strength and high hardness, it differs from zirconia in that it has lower wear resistance, making it simple to machine and refine both before and after firing.
