10/01/2018
The year 2018 is off to a good start for Prodways Technologies with the success of the ProMaker LD-10 early-adopter programme and its first sales in the "compact" dental segment, together with the announcement of the sale of a Selective Laser Sintering 3D printer, the ProMaker P4500 HT, in the aeronautics sector.
In the wake of its partnership with Safran and the recent launch by Renaissance Services, an integrated US company supporting aerospace and defence companies, of a new entity specialised in additive manufacturing using its technology, Prodways Technologies confirms its expertise in the aeronautics sector with the sale of a Selective Laser Sintering 3D printer from the Powered by Farsoon range, the ProMaker P4500 HT, to a top aircraft manufacturer.
This industrial 3D printer is characterised by its high-temperature capability (up to 220°C), unique in its segment, and by a very large production platform (400mm x 400mm x 600mm) that opens up new development possibilities for the aerospace sector. The ProMaker 4500 HT 3D printer will be used by its R&D centre to develop new applications and design parts with complex geometries and aerodynamic properties that are difficult to manufacture with standard methods for parts used in engines, turbines, aeroplane wings or cabin interiors.
3D printing for the aeronautic and space sector is a priority market for Prodways Group, which already boasts more than ten major industry players among its clients.
These announcements once again confirm the unique positioning of Prodways Group, which has expanded across the entire additive manufacturing value chain to meet the requirements of industrial sectors with high added value, such as the aeronautics and medical sectors.
