New on the
MARKET
Product of the Month
Infinite Material Solutions, Prescott, WI, launched Caverna™ PP, an extrudable thermoplastic 3D printing filament
that allows users to create lightweight foam parts resembling a sponge. Specifically designed for use in Fused Filament
Fabrication (FFF) systems, the material's co-continuous distribution of tiny pores (1 to 4 μ) could allow for consistent
airflow, eliminating the need to drill holes and maximizing material distribution. The material is the first in a line of
Caverna build materials. Each one will be a blend of two polymers: a soluble material to be removed through dissolution
and an insoluble build material (in this case, polypropylene) to remain. After dissolution, the water-soluble phase leaves
behind a cave-like network of microporous interconnected channels inside the build material, making it light, soft, and porous. Users can
simply print the part, leave it to dissolve, and come back to find a complete build with a microporous structure.

Temperature Logger
Measurement Computing Corp., Norton, MA, introduced
the WebDAQ 316 standalone temperature logger
for remote monitoring and control. It provides 16
isolated thermocouple inputs and four isolated digital
bits that can be used as trigger inputs or alarm outputs.
Using the embedded Web server, users can configure applications, log
temperature data, update digital outputs and/or send notifications based
on alarm conditions, and view real-time data from any location and any
device with a Web browser.
