Air Liquide and Additive Industries have announced plans to intensify their long term relationship and enter into a professional partnership. The move will see Air Liquide adding their solutions for supply and storage of shielding gasses used in Additive Industries MetalFAB1 systems during the Additive Manufacturing process.

It was stated that a dedicated infrastructure blueprint for the MetalFAB1 system will enable Additive Industries customers in demanding markets such as aerospace, automotive, medical and high tech equipment to increase both the quality and safety of the AM process as well as post processing.

“We are proud to team up with Additive Industries to provide the optimum solution at a customer site to create the perfect environment for their production processes”, said Diederick Luijten, Managing Director IM Benelux of Air Liquide.

“On our continuous quest to improve the performance of our systems while offering our users a fully integrated solution, we have identified the gas infrastructure for argon and nitrogen as an often overlooked but important piece of the puzzle. Because of our partnership with Air Liquide, we now can offer a blueprint to our customers to guarantee a reliable gas storage and supply as well as a higher level of safety, our number one priority,” added Daan Kersten, CEO of Additive Industries.
