Meltio
Meltio (Linares, Spain) launched the Meltio Robot Cell, a turn key metal additive manufacturing solution to boost the performance of a industrial robotic arm in a safer, more reliable and highly accurate way by controlling the entire process including its recently launched slicing software Meltio Space.
This new system allows standard metal 3D printing starting from a build plate in a factory as well as part repair or feature addition.
Meltio Robot Cell features:
- Compatible with open hardware platform that allows Meltio to integrate metal 3D head into any brand of robotic arm
- Robot and positioner installed on self-supporting platform, laser safe enclosure together with Meltio Engine, Meltio Space and accessories
- Designed as plug & play system with single electrical power supply and single inert gas supply
- Must be in controlled environment
- Certified and tested to operate with ABB robotic arm as standard configuration
- Evolution of Meltio Engine Robot Integration as base production model to enable industries to incorporate 3D printed parts manufacturing with Meltio head integrated into robot into their production systems
- Lead time no longer than 4 to 6 weeks in 2023
