High-strength, lightweight and conductivity are properties that set aluminum apart as the 2nd widely used metal in the world. Mechanical manufacturing techniques like CNC milling or die casting are industry standards for mass production of industrial parts. However, when it comes to additive manufacturing (AM) to increase the complexity of the parts there is no existing AM technology for serial runs or on-demand/spare parts at competitive speeds and costs. ValCUN fills the gap for complex aluminum parts to deliver the most economical, fastest and energy-efficient AM technology, ready for serial production. Molten Metal Deposition (MMD) is our unique single-step metal additive manufacturing technology, with initial focus on aluminum. Unlike powder- and laser-based AM techniques (DED, LPBF, FDM/MIM), we produce parts directly with liquid metal from aluminum wire feedstock as a paradigm-shift in metal AM to reduce production costs by 75% while being 10x faster and allowing high degree of automation for 1-10k serial batch production with minimal post-processing. ver más
