DM3D Technology is a leading innovator in DED metal additive manufacturing solutions, empowering engineers across the USA and beyond to unlock the full potential of this transformative technology. With over 25 years of experience in building and repairing metal parts with DED, and over 25 DM3D systems deployed across 4 continents, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of DED solutions designed to meet the most demanding engineering challenges.
High-Throughput DED Solutions for Demanding Applications
Our cutting-edge, powder-based multi-nozzle, multi-material DED systems provide engineers with unmatched efficiency and material versatility. These advanced systems offer :
- High Deposition Rates: Achieve deposition rates exceeding several pounds per hour, significantly accelerating prototyping and production.
- Multi-Material Printing: Print with up to 4 different metal powders within a single build, enabling the creation of complex, functionally graded components.
- Large-Scale Printing: Fabricate intricate parts with dimensions as large as 10 feet x 10 feet x 10 feet, pushing the boundaries of DED additive manufacturing of critical components.
Advanced DED for Unparalleled Design Freedom
DM3D Technology’s DED Solution empowers engineers to push the boundaries of design by enabling the creation of:
- Complex Parts: Effortlessly create parts with complex shapes for enhanced performance.
- Large-Scale Components: Print parts as large as 10 feet x 10 feet x 10 feet, ideal for applications in aerospace, defense, and heavy industry.
- Five-Axis Material Deposition: Achieve exceptional detail and control with our 5-axis material deposition system featuring a coaxial nozzle for homogeneous powder distribution, independent of laser deposition direction.
Reimagine Manufacturing with DED
DM3D’s DED solutions offer engineers a powerful toolset for optimizing their manufacturing processes:
- Part Consolidation: Consolidate multiple traditionally manufactured components into a single, optimized DED-printed part, minimizing assembly complexity and enhancing performance.
- Additive Repair and Enhancement: Print directly onto existing parts to add features, repair defects, or improve performance.
- Single and Multi-Material Printing: Achieve the optimal balance of properties and functionality by printing with single or multiple materials within the same part.
Ideal Applications
DM3D’s DED solutions are ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including:
- Low-Volume, High-Mix Production: Cost-effectively manufacture complex, custom components in small or medium production runs. Ideal replacement for traditional processes like low-volume, high-mix castings and forgings, offering greater design freedom and reduced lead times.
- Prototyping and Development: Rapidly prototype and iterate on new designs with high fidelity, accelerating your product development cycle.
- Large critical components: Produce high-performance large components for critical applications.
