Sciaky, Inc., Chicago, USA, a subsidiary of Phillips Service Industries, Inc. (PSI), has received an order for multiple Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing (EBAM®) systems for US defence and power generation programs. Details of the project are confidential.
Sciaky’s EBAM systems can produce parts ranging from 8 in. (203 mm) to 19 ft (5.79 m) in length, with gross deposition rates ranging from seven to 25 lbs. (3.18 to 11.34 kg) of metal per hour. The company’s Interlayer Real-time Imaging and Sensing System (IRISS®) offers real-time adaptive control and can, states Sciaky, sense and digitally self-adjust metal deposition with precision and repeatability.
“This innovative closed-loop control is the primary reason that Sciaky’s EBAM 3D printing process delivers consistent part geometry, mechanical properties, microstructure, and metal chemistry, from the first part to the last,” stated the company.
