Business Wire
Only a few days after announcing the expansion of its
technological range of industrial machines for selective laser
sintering of polymers and related materials, Prodways Group
announces the launch of its Aerospace division. This division
offers a full range of additive manufacturing products dedicated
to the aerospace sector, covering:
- design of tooling and embedded
parts;
- manufacture of finished parts in
plastic and metal;
- development of machines and materials
for all 3D printing technologies.
The Prodways Group Aerospace division is backed up by the
industrial experience of:
- the Aerospace division of ECA group, a
subsidiary of Groupe Gorgé, with 30 years' experience in
production, control and maintenance tooling for the aerospace
sector;
- Initial, a Prodways Group subsidiary
with 20 years' experience in the production of plastic and metal
parts using additive manufacturing for the aerospace industry and
covering a wide range of technologies and certified plastic and
metal materials with an installed base of some thirty additive
manufacturing machines, including a dozen metal machines;
- Prodways, a leading global player in
the development of additive manufacturing machines and
materials.
This new division will be based at the ECA group's premises
within the European aeronautics hub in Toulouse. A showroom
dedicated to the aerospace sector will be inaugurated later today,
showcasing the knowledge and offering of Prodways Group's new
division. In particular, it will present certain tooling
applications already in use in industrial operations at
aeronautical manufacturing sites, and examples of embedded parts
developed on test equipment and which are entering mass
production.
The aerospace market is a priority for the Prodways Group, which
already counts more than ten major players in the sector as
clients. Additive manufacturing is a source of breakthrough
applications for this sector in terms of saving weight, improving
performance, reducing costs and speeding up the manufacturing time.
The Group's driving ambition for this sector could notably be
described as the deployment of dedicated production lines for both
plastic and metal applications.
The unique offering of the Prodways Group, encompassing
expertise in the development of machines, materials and
applications, will enable the Group to offer an extraordinary
collaboration to its customers, and achieve the exacting quality
and productivity standards required by this business.
