Metal Additive Manufacturing - The main advantage of metal additive manufacturing in the aeronautics and aerospace sectors is the reduction in weight, making aircraft safer, lighter, more efficient and capable of carrying higher loads. The reduction in the number of components achieved with this technology also proves to be a factor of great interest, reducing the complexity and defects typically associated with joining zones in more demanding situations of vibrations and thermal amplitudes. Other applications of this technology in these sectors: - Turbine blades; - Complex titanium parts that are difficult to machine; - Combustion process components with cooling channels; - Heat exchangers; - Optimised structural supports; - Instrumentation housings; - UAV fuselage; - Replacement parts; - Prototypes without tooling costs; - Jigs and Gabaris. Materials most commonly used in Aerospace and Aeronautics: - Titanium; - Aluminium; - Cobalt chrome; - Inconel; - Stainless steel. At Hypermetal we also offer solutions for stress relieving and hardening heat treatment.
