Formnext 2024: Expanded Technology Portfolio from Replique

Replique, the end-to-end platform for industrial sourcing, returns to Formnext 2024 to showcase its latest platform upgrades and innovative applications across diverse industries. Expanding beyond 3D-printing, Attendees can explore updates to Replique’s Material Hub, which now includes metal materials and a direct comparison feature for seamless material selection.

Expanding Production Network with Traditional Technologies

The ongoing expansion of the production network is a strategic response to the growing demand for decentralized manufacturing solutions beyond 3D-printing. To meet the diverse needs of customers, Replique is now incorporating traditional methods such as forging, casting and injection molding into its offerings. “With this expansion, we are responding to our customers’ desire to source all their manufacturing needs – from individual parts to serial production – centrally and using the most suitable technology for each application. [...],” says Dr. Max Siebert, CEO and Co-Founder of Replique.

Enhanced Material Hub for 3D Printing

Since its launch at Formnext 2023, Replique’s Material Hub has attracted over 400 active users. The hub now offers a more intuitive experience with a new comparison feature, allowing users to easily assess materials side-by-side and quickly choose the best option for their applications. With the addition of metal materials for additive manufacturing, customers can now qualify complex, high-strength parts with precision. Users can browse materials based on specific application requirements and access detailed property data to make informed decisions in a short period of time.

“The integration of metal materials and usability enhancements of our Material Hub represent another step toward democratizing additive manufacturing. We are excited to establish new partnerships with metal manufacturers at Formnext who want to make their materials available on our platform,” says Jan Weickel, Technical Sales Manager and Project Manager of the Replique Material Hub.
