Global additive manufacturing company SPEE3D is set to unveil its large-format metal 3D printer, TitanSPEE3D, at the Large Scale Additive Action Team Meeting (LSAAT) held at the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts.
TitanSPEE3D is poised to revolutionise metal component production by offering high design freedom and rapid production capabilities, reducing the production timeline from months to days, the company said in a media release.
The TitanSPEE3D utilises SPEE3D’s proprietary Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) technology, enabling rapid and cost-effective metal printing.
This printer boasts a build volume of 2.4 meters in diameter by 1 meter in height and can produce parts weighing up to 2000 kilograms.
Designed to accommodate a variety of metals, including 6061 Aluminium, Aluminium Bronze, and 316 Stainless Steel, the TitanSPEE3D is poised to meet diverse industry needs.
The printer has a 4.3 x 4.3-meter footprint and stands 3.3 meters tall, weighing approximately 5 metric tons.
Paul Maloney, chief revenue officer at SPEE3D, highlighted the transformative potential of the new printer: “SPEE3D revolutionized large-scale metal 3D printing when we launched our first printer utilizing our unique Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) technology and have elevated this success through continual expansion of our 3D printing technologies.”
“The TitanSPEE3D will be a game changer for industries that rely on casting for very large parts, including defence, heavy industry, and others, to have the ability to print quickly, sustainably, and at a competitive cost. We’re thrilled to preview this technology at LSAAT.”
The TitanSPEE3D will be available to a select number of beta customers in 2024, with a commercial release planned for 2025.
