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...

It’s been true for a long time, but now it’s official… Jerry Gould is a BadAss Engineer. Valence Industrial, a contract manufacturer based in Ohio and Kentucky, has officially recognized EWI’s Senior Technology Leader for Resistance and Solid-state Welding for his lifelong achievements and contributions in a Valence profile series called #BadAssEngineers. Some people might...

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...
