添加金属分层技术（AMLTECH），一个基于3D印刷金属零件制造商Adelaide, Australia, has received a share of $8.51 million (USD) in grants offered by the nation’s Entrepreneurs Accelerating Commercialisation program.
Specializing in a trademark Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAM) process, AMLTECH has been selected by the government to establish a large scale metal 3D printing service within the region.
Metal parts with 75% less waste
WAMat AMLTECH is a process based on traditional welding. It uses a metal wire feedstock that melts on contact with a heated electrical charge, know as the “arc”. CAD modeled objects are free-formed in the technique by a robotic arm, allowing the creation of large parts used in automotive, aerospace and other metalwork industries.

WAM以其在1800年代首次开发的方法中的基础，与许多材料兼容，包括钛，镍合金，不锈钢和铝。与传统的加工方法相比“wastage of material is reduced by up to 80%”in AMLTECH’s WAM process, and“制造时间减少了75％，”producing parts in days or even hours, rather than weeks.
Next-level welding
Andy Sales是AML Technologies的董事总经理兼创始人。Speaking to New Zealand’s Marlborough Express,Sales explains his motives for the company,
Performing welding techniques for 3D printing is a new and unique field, so this is what drives me, to do something different with welding than what is normally done or expected.
On receiving $376,200 (USD) from the government he says,
被授予赠款还可以极大地验证我们的业务计划，并对市场和少数投资者提供信心。
By scaling the robotic arms used to direct WAM metal, the aim is to“build something as big as a car”和bigger, as aerospace and maritime are other key areas for this technology.
