This allows components with smooth free-form surfaces and significantly enhanced mechanical properties to be produced, whilst simultaneously reducing material and energy consumption. By printing directly onto existing components, the gap between traditional mass production and 3D printing processes is bridged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/layerperformance\/\">Website<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Aachen-based start-up Layer Performance develops and markets intelligent slicing software for generating three-dimensional toolpaths for all material-extruding systems in the field of additive manufacturing.
