NetworkNewsBreaks – Sigma Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: SGLB) Awarded Contract to Implement PrintRite3D Real-Time Melt Pool Analytics Technology at Northwestern University

Sigma Labs (NASDAQ: SGLB), a leading developer of quality assurance software for the commercial 3D printing industry, today announced that it has been awarded a contract to implement its PrintRite3D Real-Time Melt Pool Analytics technology at Northwestern University. According to the update, Sigma Labs will integrate the PrintRite3D system to a DMG Mori LASERTEC12 Selective Laser Melting machine in collaboration with two university research centers at Northwestern University – Northwestern Initiative on Manufacturing Science and Innovation (“NIMSI”) and Center for Hierarchical Materials Design (“CHiMaD”). NIMSI researchers have developed computer-integrated systems for innovative subtractive, deformation-based and additive manufacturing processes. Sigma Labs and Northwestern will collaborate to further validate Sigma’s technology performance and capabilities to identify real-time defect formations during the printing process. “We are honored to have the opportunity to work with Northwestern University,” Sigma Labs Executive Chairman Mark Ruport said in the news release. “This type of collaboration is critical if additive manufacturing is to realize its potential and reach full industrialization.”
