Daishin Seiki Corporation is a leading provider of prototypes to the motorsport industry and specializes in technologically sophisticated parts and 5-axis manufacturing.


5 Axis Robot Carves Metal Like Butter
"Industrial robots are getting precise enough that they’re less like dumb machines and more like automated sculptors producing artwork. Case in point: Daishin’s Seki 5-axis mill. The Japanese company celebrated its 50th anniversary last year by using this machine to carve out a full scale motorcycle helmet out of one piece of aluminum..." Aaron Saenz

3D Printer Creates Fully Articulate Metal Robot Figures 
"I knew it was only a matter of time before someone used stainless steel 3D printing to make an awesome looking robot. Little did I realize that robot would be art, not automaton. Mani Zamani, an Algerian artist working in Europe, has taken his amazing looking digital designs and printed them using Shapeways’ stainless steel printing..." article by Aaron Saenz  singularityhub.com


 This is an original creation by Mani Zamani called RetroroBo.

Stainless Steel Printing from Shapeways
"As if 3D printing wasn’t cool enough, you can now “print” objects in stainless steel. That’s right, dust off your old Transformers designs, make room in the Monopoly box for a new piece, and get ready for the model budget at your office to sky-rocket..."

Shapeways




"This is a metal 3D printed stainless steel moebius strip. 
The design was made by Andre Bois, a Shapeways community member. 
I ordered it for myself and now I have a moebius strip, 3D printed out in Stainless Steel! You can see how the moebius strip works by looking at the position of the ants."


Turn your 3D model into a metal object! Shapeways 3D metal printing service makes it possible. This video shows the production process. Also check out inspiring samples of models that can be 3D printed in metal.
 
This video shows the 3D Printing process of 'White Detail', an Acrylic-based photopolymer. 
You can use it to create highly detailed objects that don't require much temperature resistance. The machine used is an Objet Connex500 machine.

The Lamborghini of 3D Color Printing and Scanning
"The Hub likes to highlight those groups that do things open source and cheap, but sometimes it’s good to look at the people who at the high end of the price bracket. MakerBot can put a 3D printer on your desktop, Shapeways can make you a neat object in stainless steel, but it takes a juggernaut like Z Corporation to bring you 3D printing with 450 DPI resolution in full color..."
