CNC Engineering Inc. will now play a key role in the distribution, integration and support of the Meltio metal 3D additive manufacturing (AM) solutions for FANUC CNC and robotic systems in the U.S. market.
According to CNC Engineering Inc., it specializes in the integration and support of FANUC CNC machine tool retrofits, Renishaw probe and laser systems, rotary tables and additional axes, FANUC Robots and now Meltio solutions.
Meltio is said to take metal AM to the next level by developing high-performance, affordable and easy-to-use metal AM solutions using wire laser metal deposition (LMD) technology, which the company says is the safest, cleanest and most affordable metal feedstock in the market.
CNC Engineering and Meltio say they have collaborated to design a solution that combines the power and reliability of FANUC CNC with cutting edge AM technology. This hybrid additive and subtractive manufacturing solution is said to have several advantages, including offering one of the most affordable hybrid manufacturing solutions. It is also said to provide production savings as it offers nearly 100% material utilization. It can also generate complex geometries in a single process and combine different materials into a single part. Users can also utilize AM in their shops by taking advantage of existing machines, thereby saving floor space.
