Replique to showcase updated sourcing platform now including metal Additive Manufacturing
November 11, 2024
Replique, based in Mannheim, Germany, has announced it will showcase the latest upgrades to its end-to-end production sourcing platform and Material Hub at this year’s Formnext exhibition. These include the addition of metal Additive Manufacturing options, as well as including access to traditional manufacturing technologies such as forging, metal casting and injection molding.
Since its launch in 2023, the company’s Material Hub is reported to have attracted over 400 active users. The hub now offers a new comparison feature, allowing users to assess materials side-by-side and choose the best option for their applications. Users can browse materials based on specific application requirements and access detailed property data to make informed decisions in a short period of time.
“The integration of metal materials and usability enhancements of our Material Hub represents another step toward democratising Additive Manufacturing. We are excited to establish new partnerships with metal manufacturers at Formnext who want to make their materials available on our platform,” stated Jan Weickel, Technical Sales Manager and Project Manager of the Replique Material Hub.
The updated platform gives customers access to over 250 production partners, enabling them to meet their sourcing needs with even greater flexibility.
Max Siebert, CEO and co-founder of Replique, added, “With this expansion, we are responding to our customers’ desire to source all their manufacturing needs – from individual parts to serial production – centrally and using the most suitable technology for each application. This enables companies to quickly adapt to any customer requirements in a complex procurement environment.”
