Additive Manufacturing (1/2)

Reasons of our choice • Technical reasons

Mechanical characteristics of Titanium Designed for weight optimization Integration of functions

• Marketing reasons

High technology product Specific design for customers

• Economic reasons

Cheaper solution than traditional machined parts.

Additive Manufacturing (2/2)

Specific Adaptation • Design

The parts should be designed according to the Additive Manufacturing process

Performance optimization according to EBM process

• Industrialization Design should integrate the production efficiency

• Manufacturing

Maximize the number of parts per batch in the EBM machine Specific training for machining

It’s why our project requires the SIRRIS expertise

Conclusions

Based on our experience, Titanium Additive Manufacturing is a very efficient technology. • High mechanical performance • Design to very low weight • Attractive cost.

But which requires a specific organization

(design and manufacturing) to get the highest benifits.
