MELD to showcase its AM technology at Farnborough International Air Show
July 6, 2022
MELD Manufacturing Corporation, Christiansburg, Virginia, USA, will be exhibiting at the Farnborough International Airshow, scheduled to take place in Farnborough, UK, July 18-22, 2022.
MELD uses a patented Additive Manufacturing technology based on a process similar to friction welding, and can be used for the building and repair of metal components using off-the-shelf solid-state materials or powder. The process is capable of additively manufacturing large metal parts due to the fact that the it is an open-atmosphere process and not sensitive to the operating environment or material surface condition.
The MELD process can utilise various materials, such as aluminium, titanium, steel and nickel-based superalloys.
One of the world’s largest aerospace events, Farnborough International Airshow is expected to host 1,500 exhibitors from forty-eight countries. Registration for the event is available through its website.
