Hitachi Metals Equips Innovation Center for 3D Printing of Large Metal Parts
EBAM at Hitachi Metals GRIT
Hitachi Metals, a major manufacturer of magnetic alloys and
related products, has equipped its innovation center in Japan
with an advanced electron beam additive manufacturing system
capable of producing large metal parts by three-dimensional
printing. The company is using the system to launch a new capability in 3D printing of large metal parts, among other ventures
being developed at the facility.
ent wire gauges to employ thin wire for finer deposition features
or thick wire for gross deposition features to meet unique part
specifications.
The EBAM system, made by Sciaky, was installed at the Global
Research & Innovative Technology (GRIT) facility of Hitachi
Metals in Kumagaya in April 2018, making it the first Asia-Pacific
installation for Sciaky. The company has since placed more its
units at other metals manufacturing facilities, particularly ones
serving the aerospace industry.
"Hitachi Metals is pleased to launch its new metal wire additive manufacturing technology with the procurement of Sciaky's
EBAM 110 metal 3D printing system at our GRIT facility," said
Yasuhiko Ohtsubo, 3D additive manufacturing development
manager of GRIT at Hitachi Metals, Ltd. "We look forward to
developing new materials and applications with this highly
innovative process." The company focuses on four business segments including specialty steel products; magnetic materials and
applications; functional components and equipment; as well as
wires, cables and related products.
High entropy alloy at GRIT
Its new EBAM 110 system includes a dual wirefeed configuration
for combining two different metal alloys into a single melt pool,
managed with independent program control, to create custom alloy parts or ingots. The system can also alternate between differ-
