Trumpf presents the updated TruPrint 2000 at Lab Day Chicago

German machine manufacturer Trumpf is presenting an improved version of its TruPrint 2000 3D printer in the United States at Lab Day Chicago.

The redesigned TruPrint 2000 features a square footprint and a 500-watt integrated fiber laser. The basic version included a 300-watt laser. By using a square build surface, dental technology companies can print up to 36% more removable partial dentures than on a comparable round build surface. This represents a significant advance in mass production that can benefit not only the dental industry, but other industries as well.

“The updated TruPrint 2000 is further optimized for mass production. Users from all industries benefit from the machine’s high productivity,” says Miguel Verdejo, additive manufacturing product and project manager at Trumpf’s Laser Technology Center in Michigan.

A special feature of the TruPrint 2000 is that each of the printer’s two lasers can process the entire build area simultaneously. This significantly increases the efficiency and speed of the printing process. The 3D printer is used in the medical sector in particular, for example to produce skull plates, spinal cages or knee joints made of titanium.

In addition to the technical upgrades, the TruPrint 2000 also has the process monitoring and calibration functions found in all TruPrint machines.

“In addition to the upgrades of the TruPrint 2000, the machine has the process monitoring and calibration features found in all TruPrint machines. Ensuring repeatable and high-quality parts is the top priority for Trumpf 3D printing, especially in critical areas such as medical and dental technology,” says Verdejo.

The launch of the improved TruPrint 2000 underlines Trumpf’s commitment to innovation and quality in additive manufacturing technology. The printer represents the continuous development and adaptation to the specific needs of various industries, especially in the field of precision medicine and dental technology.
