From the stars to the sea

Explore more possibilities for metal additive manufacturing

As a fundamental and strategic industry in China, the three aviation industry is a leader in cutting-edge technology and an intermediate force in national defense construction. With the arrival of a new wave of technological revolution, additive manufacturing, advanced materials, and other disruptive technologies are accelerating breakthroughs, bringing unprecedented development opportunities to the three aviation industry.

Focusing on new materials; Facing the three aviation industries, Avimetal has developed over a hundred specialized materials for additive manufacturing, especially in the aerospace field, which has basically achieved full coverage of additive manufacturing material grades. Powder materials such as titanium and titanium alloys, high-temperature alloys, and other specialized materials for 3D printing of aerospace equipment have taken the lead in completing domestically produced, independently controlled, and low-cost mass production; In the field of shipbuilding and marine industry, Avimetal has carried out a series of research projects and topics on rare and precious metal materials, continuously deepening the exploration of innovative applications and breakthroughs of new materials in the field of marine industry.

At the exhibition site, Avimetal’s high-temperature alloys such as GH3230 and GH4169, as well as titanium and titanium alloy powders such as TA15 and TC4, provide specialized high-end new materials and customized services for the three aviation industries.

Focus on high-end equipment; Over 10 years of industry technology accumulation, in September 2022, Avimetal strategically laid out the field of metal 3D printer equipment. Based on serving national scientific and technological strategic goals and major engineering construction, it customized and developed four high-end printing equipment for cutting-edge technology fields such as scientific research institutions, university institutions, aerospace, shipbuilding and marine engineering, with forming dimensions ranging from 250 × two hundred and fifty × 300mm~605 × six hundred and five × 650mm, meeting different printing needs such as scientific research and mass production, and assisting in the autonomous mass production of heavy equipment components such as missiles, arrows, satellites, aircraft, and ships in China.

At the exhibition site, the innovative 3D printer equipment of the MT280, MT330, MT450, and MT650 series has received multiple customer inquiries, focusing on high-end equipment, and providing equipment support for cutting-edge technology research, cost reduction, efficiency enhancement, and mass application for customers in the three aviation industries.

The above components are all printed using MT450, using Avimetal’s independent materials 316L and GH4169 to meet functional requirements, and delivered to civil aviation and aerospace customers.

MT450 forming size 400 × four hundred and fifty × 500mm, equipped with an independent pick-up compartment and an efficient and powerful wind farm structure design, the entire machine is developed to balance printing quality and efficiency. It is a batch production selection model for medium and large components in industries such as aerospace.

Focusing on overall industry solutions; For more than a few years, Avimetal has always provided innovative metal additive manufacturing services for specific application fields such as aerospace, marine industry, and biomedicine. With the rapid development of high-end equipment business and the steady leading development of new material research and development, the company has quickly established a one-stop service model for equipment, materials, and processes, providing customers with customized equipment research and development, material design, powder trial production, structural optimization, forming process, heat treatment We have accumulated rich cutting-edge technology cases and service experience in additive manufacturing through comprehensive solutions such as surface treatment and testing analysis.

For customers in the three aviation industry, Avimetal provides a one-stop high value-added service model of “equipment+materials+processes”, which has been highly recognized by on-site customers.

With the gradual deepening of additive manufacturing (3D printing) technology in various high-end application fields, additive manufacturing technology has entered a new stage of rapid growth; Taking this event as an opportunity, from the stars to the sea, Avimetal has learned more about the application needs of the segmented fields of the three aviation industry. New manufacturing empowers the three aviation industry and more industries. We look forward to working with more users to strengthen cooperation in scientific research, technology, and manufacturing, and jointly explore more breakthroughs and sustainable challenges in 3D printing development.
