Platform for Machining and Additive Manufacturing

Compatible with nearly all CNC machines, this platform facilitates the simultaneous metal 3D printing and machining of intricate geometries within a single process step.

Hybrid Manufacturing


Produce intricate components with machining precision within a unified manufacturing process.

Retrofitting


Equip any CNC machine with enhanced capabilities by transforming it into a hybrid metal manufacturing system.

Repair


Affordable component repair, part enhancement, and additional feature integration.

Geometry Freedom


There are no inherent limitations when the operational space is solely determined by the dimensions of the motion system.

Printhead Information

Includes actuated mounting hardware where the deposition head is stored in a sealed enclosure when not in use and automatically deployed when needed.

Printhead Unretracted Size (WxDxH): 255 X 320 X 1045 mm
Printhead Retracted Size (WxDxH) 255 x 320 x 872 mm
Printhead Weight: 46.5 kg

Key Integration Requirements

Includes actuated mounting hardware where the deposition head is stored in a sealed enclosure when not in use and automatically deployed when needed.

Spindle motors can handle the additional weight. Ability to add a NO relays to the feed hold.
Deployment mechanism can be mounted without collitions. Possibility to add safety integration (depending on the integration).
5 – 8 digital input ports available. Laser safety windows can be mounted.
1 – 7 digital output ports available. Ability to add feed resume/start buttons.

*The integration will require laser safety windows, door safety interlocks and sheet metal protection for any penetrations in the roof or side walls of the machine. These hardware items are to be sourced by the integrator and depend on the CNC machine of choice.

Upgrades and Accessories

Dual Wire: This option allows to 3D print two wire materials sequentially with very quick wire switches.
Hot Wire: Programmable power supply that preheats the material to increase the deposition rate.
Laser Alignment System: It allows users to calibrate Meltio’s multi-laser deposition head accurately and effortlessly prior to every print.

Metal 3D Printing Experiences

” If we compare with other makers of laser, with Meltio >we’ve had the clearer deposition in thousands of parts, and that is nice to see. We can also make some parts that are impossible to make without Meltio’s technology.

We can produce one part with one configuration, then another one with a total different one. Without Meltio’s technology, we wouldn’t be able to do it because the costs would be too high. “
