Advanced Automation (Page 12)

In the manufacturing world, robotic welding systems are making their way into directed energy deposition (DED) AM production. EWI recently converted, demonstrated, and validated an IPG Genesis robotic welding cell for DED AM use. The system is dimensionally accurate and ready to build large-scale AM parts. This project is described in IPG Genesis Robotic DED...

Wire DED as a large-scale additive manufacturing method is highly promising, but until now there has not been an effective robotic system for wire delivery. That has changed with the development of EWI’s coaxial laser wire DED solution which has demonstrated one of the highest build rates in AM. You can learn about this project...

The EWI Skillform Center is pleased to offer a range of robotics courses in September and October 2021. These practical courses are specially designed to help engineers with minimal experience in robotics gain the knowledge needed to bring automation into a production setting. This training series, directed by Senior Automation Engineer Mike Garman, is taught...
