Are you ready for perfectly made parts? Metal additive manufacturing is not the winning solution you think it is. It promised to “revolutionize” the production of metal parts and provide a viable path toward re-shoring and removing the strain of over saturated supply-chains The reality is that metal AM has fallen far short for scaling high-mix, low-lot manufacturing, and it would be a mistake for the DoD and others to bet more resources on its potential for rapid scalability. High CapEx costs, sluggish throughput, extensive qualification, and complex post processing simply does not scale. Current global conflicts are driving demand for more product diversity and shorter lead times - metal AM just can't support this. What can meet these demands? The answer lies in using AM to enhance cost-effective, proven production methods like Investment Casting. Digital Casting, which uses 3DP patterns instead of wax 1-of-1s produced with item-specific tooling, is the practical solution that can deliver metal parts at scale. We are witnessing a significant shift among our customers, who are moving away from metal AM and embracing this tool-less, scalable solution. Intrepid Automation is proving it. Digital Casting leverages all of AM’s advantages- complexity and ability to produce infinite complex geometries in a single run - without any of the qualification hurdles, cost burdens, or scalability issues. We do this 10x faster than our competitors with extreme accuracy, amazing surface finish and extreme repeatability on our cutting edge 760mm x 660mm x 560mm DLP production printer. Printed patterns eliminate the need for wax tooling, tool storage, wax material costs, and wax room labor - shaving months, if not years, off of production schedules. It’s also secure at scale: Intrepid's closed-loop AI monitoring ensures high-quality surface finish and repeatability print-to-print and printer-to-printer. Metal AM was touted as the ultimate solution for production scalability, but it has failed to deliver on its promises. It's becoming increasingly clear that it may not be able to do so. In contrast, Digital Casting is a viable alternative that can deliver on these promises. To learn more, please visit us at www.intrepidautomation.com
