French metal additive manufacturing companyAddUpand German aerospace company山航空航天已经扩展了他们在定向能源沉积（DED）技术方面的合作伙伴关系。该合作伙伴关系的扩展包括MT Aerospace收购第二台400机器。
雷电竞充值基于DED技术的增材制造系统，范围从激光金属沉积（LMD）也称为激光覆层，吹制粉末DED以及商标名称，例如激光工程网（Lens）。材料（无论是电线还是粉末形式）通过聚焦能量从固体变为液态，例如电子束，激光或在某些情况下是等离子体弧。
DED打印头安装在龙门上，就像FFF/FDM一样，并在整个室内移动以存放材料。除了能源和材料外，打印头还可以提供屏蔽气体，以保持熔体池周围的惰性气氛。
The extension of this partnership includes the acquisition of a second模块400机器by MT Aerospace. These two DED machines will enable MT Aerospace to multiply projects while shortening industrialization times, enabling the company to move more quickly toward series production of this technology.
For the past two years, AddUp has worked closely with MT Aerospace experts to qualify applications through the DED process. The Modulo 400 machine, which consists of a vibration powder dispenser for stability and reliability in the powder supply of the deposition nozzle, can produce parts with fine surface finishes and ideal mechanical properties. MT Aerospace says it has successfully tested it on a wide range of materials, thanks to an enclosure inerting device, which allows working with reactive powders such as titanium.
山航空航天and AddUp benefit their customers through their extended partnership
山航空航天is planning to build a comprehensive industrial platform based on DED technology in just two years, with design capabilities as well as production, post-processing, and part inspection capabilities. All of these activities, according to the company, will be later compatible with the specifications of theEN 9100 standardrelevant to the aerospace sector.
With the addition of a second Modulo 400 3D printer, MT Aerospace claims it has improved its understanding of the DED process. Consequently, the company will be capable of utilizing the doubled manufacturing capacity to work in multiple directions at the same time. Firstly, in partnership with theEuropean Space Agency，，，，the qualifying phases for satellite fuel tanks will be accelerated, as will the development of fresh applications for satellites and micro-launchers. Secondly, this second machine will provide a chance to expand services and thus address other industries such as automotive or energy.
山航空航天claims it has already “succeeded in convincing several principals of interest” in the DED process and is now counting on this new AddUp machine to complement the anticipated rise in production volumes in the years ahead. AddUp is assisting this growth by allowing its consumers from Germany and beyond to benefit significantly from MT Aerospace’s expertise in incorporating the DED process.
How industrialization is scaling additive manufacturing
Previously, Multinational automotive manufacturerBMWannounced the successful completion of its Digitalisation andIndustrialisation of Additive Manufacturingor ‘IDAM’ project. Since its inception four years ago, BMW and its partners have established two digitally enabled automotive 3D printing production lines. These manufacturing suites, one in Bonn at material developerGKN粉末冶金and the other in Munich, are capable of producing around 50,000 parts each year while functioning autonomously without the necessity for manual input.
此外，Siemens开设了夏洛特高级技术合作中心（CATCH) to help customers accelerate their plans for雷电竞充值增材制造工业化。该研究与开发设施位于北卡罗来纳州夏洛特，由Siemens Digital Industries，，，，Siemens Technology，，，，and西门子的能量。为了进一步工业化该地区的3D打印，该枢纽将与关键OEM，最终用户和美国国家实验室合作。
“We are excited to launch this new additive manufacturing hub and to begin inviting customers in to collaborate and find ways to accelerate the industrialization of this technology,” said Tim Bell, Additive Manufacturing Business Manager at Siemens Digital Industries. “The benefits of additive manufacturing are clear from faster time-to-market, to better design through digital prototypes, to localized manufacturing helping to reduce supply chain constraints.”
