First live e-xperience with several thousand participants
True passion, real innovation, virtual experience – this was the message which ENGEL put out for the first edition of the ENGEL live e-xperience in mid-October 2020 – and ENGEL was true to its word. Several thousand customers, partners and interested parties from 90 countries took part in the virtual trade fair and online conference. The keynotes, expert talks, one-on-one meetings and machine exhibits in the virtual showroom were very well attended throughout all four live days. All presentations are still available from the media library.
COVID-19 Era - Solutions for medical companies to win the protracted battle
In early 2020, the COVID-19 virus was confirmed as a pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO) due to the significant spread around the Globe.

The three companies are cooperating in order to make silicones and their processing more widely available.

We're not inviting interested parties to Friedrichshafen, but to Montecassiano, 800 km further south on the Adriatic coast." The FAKUMA exhibits were already built and in operation.
Medical customers across the globe adopt Stratasys J750 Digital Anatomy 3D printer
The J750 Digital Anatomy 3D printer produces anatomical models that mimic the actual feel, responsiveness, and biomechanics of human anatomy. Models can be punctured, sutured, cut, and physically manipulated like actual human tissue. This capability minimizes the use of animals and cadavers for clinical trials and surgical training. Hospitals, healthcare institutions and medical schools can use these lifelike 3D models to improve clinical evaluation for a wide range of pathologies, as well as bring new medical devices to market faster.
