 DMX-SL 100 Rochester Hills, Mich. May 7, 2007– Auburn Engineering, Inc., a leading provider of rapid prototyping and production services, announces it is among the first rapid prototyping and production facility in the Midwest to offer the industry’s first stereo-lithography (SL) resin targeted for high durability applications and direct manufacturing. Auburn Engineering received an early release of this innovative resin from the manufacturer, DSM Somos (Elgin, Illinois) before it was officially released to the general market. The material, known as Somos DMX-SL®, is a significant new chemistry platform for direct manufacturing development. With the innovation, rapid prototyping users deliver custom-built parts that are durable, accurate and offer excellent detail—a development that brings stereo lithography one step closer to direct manufacturing "Offering our customers full direct manufacturing, which includes cost effective direct building of custom plastic parts without the need for tooling, is no longer limited by material properties,” notes Reid Scott, president, Auburn Engineering. “Based on this unique technology which produces resins with extremely high impact strength and resistance to breakage, Auburn Engineering is among the first to offer accurate and durable parts with superior surface finish over other RP technologies such as sintering.” |

 D4D Dental Equipment Rochester Hills, Mich. April 25, 2007– Auburn Engineering, Inc., a leading provider of rapid prototyping and production services, announces that it is a single source provider for both tooling and molding for the dental equipment manufacturer, D4D Technologies. Notes Reid Scott, president, Auburn Engineering, “Auburn Engineering completed these production tools for D4D Technologies shortly after the urethane prototypes proved out their designs. Having spent time making design improvements during the prototype phase of this project, the production tools provided high quality parts from day one.” “We selected Auburn because they could meet our high quality standards and rapid response requirements,” said Dennis Britt, vice president of operations with D4D. Auburn Engineering partnered with the dental equipment developer’s design team to build selective laser sintering (SLS) prototypes for the numerous components of the innovative D4D dental equipment for initial design review. The SLS glass-filled nylon prototypes offered were more durable than stereolithography (SLA) epoxy prototypes. D4D designers then looked to Auburn Engineering to produce silicone molds and cast urethane prototypes for the first functional plastic prototypes that were to be installed on working units. |
