ADDiTEC launches AMDROiD X for in-situ demanding manufacturing environments
ADDiTEC, headquartered in Palm City, Florida, USA, has launched its AMDROiD X, a self-contained and portable laser-based Directed Energy Deposition (DED) Additive Manufacturing machine. The turnkey solution is designed for rapid deployment in demanding environments.
The AMDROiD X, with either a 6 kW or 12 kW fibre laser, enables the in-situ production of large-scale metal components. The DED machine can process wire feedstock, including stainless steel, aluminium and copper, with high deposition rates.
The robotic architecture is housed in a portable 3.05 m modular container. It has four powerwalls which p provide 54 kWh of usable energy that can be recharged via the solar-panelled roof.
The AMDroid X also comes with software tools able to accommodate complex multi-axis geometries in an effort to make DED Additive Manufacturing technology more accessible to new users.
