Off-Highway Construction Industry
Large-Scale 3D Metal Printing Opens Opportunities in Agricultural, Mining and Construction Industries
With larger machines and lower volume runs, ADDere’s large-scale additive manufacturing systems allow for manufacturing efficiencies in many areas. In the off-highway, construction, farming and mining markets, the laser wire additive manufacturing technology can offer a cost-effective alternative to the short-run casting of complex components. Additionally, the 3D metal printing system can reduce the time it takes to get those components in-house for final finishing. ADDere prints large-scale parts in a variety of metals, including most ferrous-based alloys and superalloys. ADDere opens the door to steel and nickel alloys that were previously out of reach with short-run casting and forging processes.
ADDere allows for component testing at scale and in the production-specified material. Moreover, the metal 3D printing system can greatly reduce the time necessary to prove component design feasibility – and before moving into more production-based processes. This gets products to market quicker as well as the opportunity to iterate faster.
Freedom in Design and Engineering
ADDere allows designers and engineers in the agricultural sector to develop highly efficient and functional structures. By building components layer-by-layer, ADDere enables the realization of geometries and structures that were previously impossible. Off-highway equipment manufacturers can optimize structural designs, reduce material waste and enhance safety during construction. The resulting components withstand tough conditions, including dirt, dust, heat and jolts.
ADDere’s metal additive manufacturing process is reshaping the construction and farming equipment industries by offering efficient, customized, and lightweight solutions. As technology advances, we can expect even greater adoption of additive systems in these sectors, leading to a more sustainable and innovative economy.
