3PO

3PO features a MELD system with an integrated subtractive machine. It offers an immense cubic build space along with freedom in material choice. It boasts a 3-axis additive head with a loader capacity of 400 bars. The standard 3-axis subtractive head can be upgraded to an optional 5-axis head. 3PO eliminates the need for a second machine for the subtractive processing step.

Custom Machines

Unlike traditional processes, MELD is solid-state and yields fully-dense products with near-wrought properties, reduces distortion, and saves time and expense as compared to processes requiring secondary steps to achieve full density or improved properties. With high deposition rates, large parts can be fabricated rapidly for evaluation of new materials and new geometries.

MELD increases capability by allowing manufacture of functionally-graded multi-material parts or addition of material to non-weldable parts.

Machines can be customized to meet your size and geometry requirements.
