Morf3D Inc., a subsidiary of Nikon Corporation and a leader in metal additive manufacturing (AM), has partnered with Siemens Advanta, the IoT consultancy and solutions integration arm of the global technology company.
The two entities have committed to an ongoing technology development partnership as Morf3D continues to build its Applied Digital Manufacturing Center (ADMC) in Long Beach, California. Morf3D’s ADMC is a 90,000-ft2 facility designed to harnesses applied research, advanced engineering and application development, serial production and industry partnerships with global leaders to drive the industrialization of digital manufacturing in high-growth markets. At peak, the center will be home to 150 multidiscipline engineers, research staff and technical teams.
“Siemens Advanta is proud to contribute to the forward-thinking innovation that is transforming the additive manufacturing industry,” says Rani Shea, CEO of Siemens Advanta, North America. “In working with Morf3D and its new ADMC, we look forward to helping optimize additive manufacturing capabilities for the aerospace industry.”
As part of Siemens Advanta’s inaugural project, it will use design and simulation software from Siemens Digital Industries to develop a scale-up plan and bottleneck analysis, as well as explore novel manufacturing and logistic concepts. Material flow and space demand will be validated based on a digital twin of production.
Siemens Advanta’s work at the ADMC will transition into additional ongoing software innovations and on-site personnel support. “We are constantly thinking about how to further our industry and this partnership with Siemens Advanta gives us a great sense of optimism for the future,” says Ivan Madera, CEO for Morf3D Inc. “Morf3D is experiencing growth at a rapid rate. We wanted to make sure that our factory was flexible and that we had a team able to understand the challenges that we might face, not just today, but in the future too.”
