MetalWorm’s primary goal is to produce computer-controlled, high-volume robotic additive manufacturing systems that uses MIG/MAG and TIG welding techniques. These systems use additive manufacturing, which offers significant benefits in terms of process, cost, and manufacturing technology.
The system library contains the process parameters for producing steel, stainless steel, and aluminum alloys. The WAAM process parameters and accompanying mechanical characteristics for producing additional alloys including titanium, Inconel, and armor steel will also be available soon.
The MetalWorm system development plan intends to shorten sector-based manufacturing times, particularly in the aerospace and many other industries. The system development roadmap includes a system design for the part manufacturer to achieve a compact solution to produce by uploading the CAD data of the component that will be produced into the system, and to reduce the intermediary processes.
With its own unique software, the MetalWorm system can generate alternative toolpath strategies and robot codes for various geometries depending on the material used.
The MetalWorm system is offered on the market in a variety of configurations with a range of monitoring and controlling options.
