April 17, 2024
Hyliion, a developer of sustainable electricity-producing technology headquartered in Austin, Texas, USA, has installed its first Additive Manufacturing machine. Hyliion selected GE Additive’s XLine AM machine to manufacture aluminium parts for the KARNO generator.
GE Additive’s XLine 2000R has a build volume of 160 litres and is used for producing large-scale components in the aerospace and automotive industries. The machine features separation of the process and handling station, which enables safe operation of the machine and easier handling. Additionally, the X Line 2000R has a rotating mechanism, allowing two build modules to be used reciprocally, guaranteeing constant production with minimal downtimes.
Hyliion has reported that more AM machines will be added soon as the company sets up Texas production.
