Sandvik part-subsidiary BEAMIT Group invests in GE Additive’s M Line system, to meet the demand from aerospace and defense for large metal additive parts – and assistance in industrializing additive production.

Sandvik is once again joining forces with part subsidiary BEAMIT Group as the two co-exhibit at Rapid + TCT 2022, May 17-19, in Detroit, USA. The Sandvik-BEAMIT booth will be filled with industrial additive customer cases in a wide range of materials, to showcase the duo’s leading expertise and offering along the additive value chain.

Sandvik continues to expand their additive offering through introducing 3D printed cemented carbide – with superior wear-resistant properties. This is enabled by a unique powder, crafted through a patented process developed by the company’s leading experts along the additive value chain.

AMUG is fast approaching, and Sandvik Additive Manufacturing is one of this year’s platinum sponsors. For five days, engineers, designers, and educators share expertise, challenges, and developments in the field of additive manufacturing (AM) – and we are excited to take part.

These guidelines facilitates safe implementation of 3D printed stainless-steels components in industries operating in demanding environments – for instance the offshore and marine segments, where Sandvik’s flagship alloy Osprey® 2507 is widely used.

Whether it’s binder jetting, laser powder bed fusion or stereolithography, additive manufacturing (AM) is all about building, layer upon layer. Sandvik have spent 160 years doing something similar: building knowledge about materials and manufacturing processes – upon expertise, upon experience.

Another year is coming to an end, and it’s high time to summarize the highlights. Let’s have a closer look at some of the key events for Sandvik Additive Manufacturing and our growing additive family throughout the year!
