Siemens: Digitalisation enables the industrialisation of metal Additive Manufacturing at Finspång
As one of the world’s largest industrial companies, Siemens has experienced first hand the process of taking metal AM from the R&D laboratory to the series production of critical components for its power generation business.
Today, it is supporting the global industrialisation of the technology through its Siemens NX Additive Manufacturing software. In the following report, the company’s Aaron Frankel and Ashley Eckhoff explain their belief that, whilst the potential of AM is massive, digitalisation will play a critical role in enabling its transition from a prototyping tool to a serial production technology.
GKN Powder Metallurgy: Moving metal Additive Manufacturing towards mass production with HP
