3D MakerJet Inc. is preparing to introduce a wire-feed powderless metal 3D printer to the market later this year, 3D MakerJet Inc. is exploring the product’s industrial applications.
Powderless metal 3D printing allows for components to be made rapidly and affordably with strength and durability. As many prolific industrial sectors are becoming early adopters, 3D MakerJet is working to craft unique solutions for each of them.
“Cutting costs and lead times is a driving force behind our product’s industrial uses,” said 3D MakerJet President John Crippen. “Portable wire-feed metal printers will prove to be an indispensable tool on the job—as in mining, where downtime can be extremely costly. The ability to mount a metal printer on a truck could transform multiple industries, such as electrical repairs and construction.”
Powderless metal printing can resolve issues like equipment failure quickly and inexpensively. Operations could have access to a digital parts library featuring any piece required for production—storing spares digitally, decreasing inventory costs and eliminating the lengthy and expensive process of transporting parts.
Similar to other additive manufacturing techniques, powderless metal printing is created by digital data from computer-aided design (CAD) software. Compared to powder-feed methods, the powderless process, using fused filament fabrications (FFF) behaves much like traditional welding and allows for better efficiency of material usage.
