The 3D Tech Brunch was a full house

Event theme: The rebirth of an industrial component

held on May 14, 2025 3D Tech Brunch at the VARINEX 3D Digital Factory attracted outstanding interest and was a sold-out event. The event focused on a real-life industrial project that demonstrated how 3D technologies and artificial intelligence can be applied to the rebirth of industrial components. The event was jointly organized by the world-renowned Henkel Adhesive Technologies, VARINEX Zrt, CAD-Terv Kft. and NEW technology magazine.

The project presented involved replacing an aging, hard-to-obtain part that would have caused a production line to shut down. The goal of the project was to demonstrate how AI and 3D technologies can be applied to the renewal of industrial parts.

We were particularly pleased that during the 3D Tech Brunch, the VARINEX team was joined by Henkel Adhesive Technologies from Germany. Alfred Kaltenbach, representing Henkel Loctite, gave an informative presentation, providing insight into Loctite's innovative materials used in additive manufacturing, thereby expanding the professional knowledge of the participants and inspiring the audience interested in new technological solutions.

The world-renowned Helkel Adhesive Technologies is at the forefront of adhesive technology, and their Loctite products are synonymous with reliability, durability and industrial performance worldwide. VARINEX is honored to partner with such a long-standing, respected and innovative company.

Event program

The following topics were presented during the event:

3D Scanning and What's Behind It - VARINEX Zrt.:Applications of high-precision 3D scanning were demonstrated with Shining3D's latest scanners. This is the perfect choice for those looking for a reliable metrology solution that can be easily integrated into their existing manufacturing processes.

Product Development with AI Support – CAD-Terv Ltd.:They presented how AI can support product development processes. CAD-Terv's strength in the field of artificial intelligence lies in the fact that it integrates advanced artificial intelligence-based design and modeling solutions into engineering processes, significantly increasing efficiency and accuracy.

Advanced Prototype – 3D Printing – VARINEX Zrt.:The benefits and applications of 3D printing were explained on the most reliable industrial equipment.

Possibilities of Topological Optimization – CAD-Terv Ltd.:The applications and benefits of topological optimization were presented.

Manufacturing Support – VARINEX Zrt.:The possibilities of supporting manufacturing processes with high-end additive manufacturing technologies were presented.

Introducing the VARINEX 3D Digital Factory

The event took place at VARINEX 3D Digital Factory , Hungary's largest brand-independent 3D technology provider. At the factory, participants were able to get up close and personal with the latest 3D scanners and industrial 3D printers, through expert consultations.

Successful sold-out event

The success of the event was demonstrated by the high participation rate and active professional discourses. Participants were enriched with valuable information and made new professional contacts in an informal manner. The event contributed to the popularization of the application of 3D scanners, 3D printing and AI in the industrial sector.

Next steps

Given the success of the event, the organizers plan to hold similar events in the future, which will further deepen the knowledge of the participants and promote industrial innovation. VARINEX Zrt. and its partners are committed to promoting the spread of 3D technology and AI applications in the industrial sector.

We welcome engineers, designers, developers, manufacturing and maintenance professionals to the VARINEX 3D Digital Factory. Participation is free, but registration is required.
