Sigma Labs has been selected by Airbus to Deploy Sigma Labs' PrintRite3D® Rapid Test and Evaluation Program
July 30 2019 - 8:00AM
Sigma Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: SGLB) (“Sigma Labs” or the “Company”), a
provider of quality assurance software under the PrintRite3D®
brand, announced today that it will work with Airbus (NASDAQ:
EADSY) to complete a Test and Evaluation Program of Sigma Labs' new
PrintRite3D® version 5.0 hardware and software followed by a
validation phase on a powderbed fusion printer.
Under the Test and Evaluation program, Sigma Labs
will provide comprehensive PrintRite3D In-Process Quality Assurance
(IPQA®) system and services—hardware, software, training,
engineering and metallurgical consulting and support services—to
demonstrate their ability to monitor and characterize material,
machine process and production consistency and repeatability of
additive manufacturing operations.
John Rice, Chairman and CEO of Sigma Labs, said, “We are honored
and indeed feel very privileged to have our
In-Process-Quality-Assurance tools as well as engineering staff
engaged with Airbus, a leading aircraft manufacturer. PrintRite3D
INSPECT® 5.0 provides the market with a user-friendly experience to
rapidly qualify an AM metal machine for serial production, and
then, in the course of continuous production runs, to be able to
warn process engineers of ‘signature’ precursors of process
discontinuities and thus enable them to extract actionable data to
restore the process. Our industry appears to be accelerating in its
sophisticated quality requirements including highly accurate and
economic third-party quality assurance. We at Sigma have committed
ourselves to meet that need.”
The Test and Evaluation program will demonstrate the power of
Sigma Labs’ new PrintRite3D INSPECT® 5.0 and reveal the value-add
of implementing IPQA® to ensure process quality by identifying
process defect thermal signatures.
The application and growth of additive manufacturing in the
aircraft industry continues to advance. Process qualification is
critical to increasing and assuring quality, reducing waste, and
raising quality yields. PrintRite3D® provides process knowledge and
understanding about melt pool dynamics that can lead to improved
process consistency and a broader scope of applications for
additive manufacturing.
