The Royal Air Force (RAF) has introduced Wayland Additive's electron beam metal 3D printer, "Calibur3"!

Stable process using new "electron" beam technology. Free parameter open access. Capable of shaping diverse materials.

This is a metal 3D printer using electron beam powder bed technology that adopts neutral "electron" beam technology, enabling large-scale fabrication free of residual stress. It offers high-speed manufacturing, simplification of post-processing steps, and provides a more stable platform compared to other technologies. Thanks to its unique charge neutralization, it allows for stable fabrication processes without smoke generation, enabling the production of large parts without being affected by stress. It is capable of 3D printing with a variety of metals and alloys, including Ni alloys, Ti alloys, Cu alloys, CoCr alloys, pure copper, copper alloys, hard metals (Vibenite 280/290), and high melting point metal materials. With fewer necessary post-processing steps, it allows for short and energy-efficient manufacturing. Advanced in-process monitoring and control promote the development of a wide range of applications.

High hardness and high wear-resistant alloy powder for metal 3D printing.

VBN Components' Vibenite series is a powder material made of high hardness and high wear-resistant alloys that enable 3D printing with metal. There are five types of powder steel, allowing for the selection of powders with higher hardness, high-temperature hardness, corrosion resistance, and toughness according to specific applications. The Vibenite series contains a high amount of carbide but does not require the mixing, drying, pressing, and sintering processes typical of conventional carbide manufacturing. It is suitable for 3D printing with metal. Contract manufacturing is also available using the metal 3D printing equipment owned by VBN Components (maximum build size: approximately 230 x 230 x 350 mm). It can be used for applications such as power skiving cutters, large gear cutting hobs, pressure die casting tools, plastic and metal forming tools, cutting knives, and wear protection.

Can be manufactured with a metal 3D printer. Improved high-temperature hardness and wear resistance, enhancing high-speed steel (HSS) applications through complex shapes and lightweight design.

Vibenite 480 is a 3D printing alloy that significantly improves high-temperature hardness and wear resistance due to its high carbide content. Its metal structure remains stable under temperature changes, making it ideal for metal parts that require high-temperature durability. The 3D printing process allows for the creation of free and complex shapes, enabling the combination of multiple alloy components into a single part, lightweight design, and the internal design of various refrigerant flow paths. By shortening the manufacturing lead time for prototypes and initial production runs, it becomes possible to release new products in a timely manner. A major feature is that near-net-shape manufacturing eliminates the need for rough machining using machining centers, resulting in less grinding.

Martensitic stainless steel with significantly improved wear resistance that can be fabricated using metal 3D printers.

Vibenite 350 is a martensitic stainless powder metallurgy (PM) metal powder for 3D printing that achieves high hardness and excellent corrosion resistance through high chromium (Cr) addition. It also boasts excellent wear resistance due to its high carbide (carbon) metal content. Advantages: - Martensitic high-alloy that does not require heavy cutting - Excellent wear resistance - Corrosion resistance - High metal fatigue resistance - No porosity and uniform hardness - Uniform microstructure through the AM-HSS process - Capable of 3D printer layered manufacturing

High-speed tool steel, which is "world-class hard steel" that can be fabricated with a metal 3D printer.

It is high-speed tool steel, which is "world-class hard steel" that can be manufactured using metal 3D printers. It improves existing high-speed steel (HSS) applications that require higher high-temperature hardness or greater wear resistance. The 3D printed Vibenite 290 has a high carbide content, providing the best wear resistance and hardness. The additive manufacturing (AM) process allows for the design of complex shapes, the integration of multiple parts into one, the addition of cooling channels, weight reduction, and the incorporation of other features. The time required for sample prototyping and small-scale production is very fast, enabling rapid development of new products. Furthermore, near-net-shape manufacturing eliminates the need for rough machining and minimizes grinding.

High Strength, Low Cost: The Economic Advantages of Carbon Steel Frames Carbon steel is inherently strong, and this high structural strength ensures stable wind resistance while allowing for a simple support structure, reducing the need for extra components. This also lowers the wear rate during transportation, enabling further savings in material costs and installation expenses. Transportation and Construction: Streamlining the Entire Project The advantages of carbon steel frames are also evident in the transportation and construction phases. Standardized designs simplify on-site installation and shorten construction periods. For example, carbon steel frames can be packaged using a combination of wooden sticks and iron ties, improving unloading efficiency and increasing transport volume. This reduces construction time and labor costs, distributing the overall burden of the project across all stages. Technological Innovation: Breakthroughs in Corrosion Resistance With the evolution of material technology, the corrosion treatment of carbon steel frames has also significantly advanced. Grace Solar has adapted to the technological trends in process development, and all current carbon steel frames utilize AlMgZn coating. At the same time, to meet the special requirements of each project, our company offers custom options for hot-dip galvanizing.
