Find out why additive manufacturing DED metal is changing everything

DED Solutions for Industry

Notre gamme de machines de fabrication additive DED Gicam laser-fil (WLAM) et laser-poudre (LMD) répond à toutes les situations.

The first system to combine wire laser (WLAM) and powder laser (LMD) technologies on a single platform, achieved simply by changing the head. Patented rotating nozzle, native dual-material capability, plug-and-play.
From compact workshop-sized parts to large industrial components.
Les Gicam sont des solutions de fabrication additive métallique (imprimantes 3D métal), conçues et fabriquées par Sotimeco, adaptées à une large gamme d'applications et d'industries, économes et immédiatement opérationnelles.
Fabrication de pièces à haute résistance mécanique, prototypage, réparation, conception ou rétro-conception de pièces.
The industry standard. High productivity, wide range of materials, processing of parts up to 2 m³. The ideal solution for manufacturing or repairing metal parts of all sizes, whether solid or thin-walled.
Established reputation in the industrial, aerospace, and defense sectors.
Compact, quick to set up, and versatile, it fits easily into any workshop. Equipped with the Sotimeco technologies found throughout the Gicam line, the Gicam 600 is ideal for production, repair, or prototyping, and is well-suited for design offices, R&D labs, and small and medium-sized businesses focused on rapid innovation.
Au-delà de la gamme standard, Sotimeco propose des machines pour des usages spécifiques, ou quand le besoin client dépasse le catalogue, une conception entièrement sur mesure. Technologie et savoir-faire Sotimeco. Dimensions, fonctionnalités et matériaux sur mesure. Pour l’industrie qui refuse les compromis.
The natural extension of your Gicam machines, designed to manage and ensure the safety of your daily production.
Beyond the machine itself, Sotimeco develops tools designed for production operations: monitoring and traceability of the manufacturing process, and secure management of raw materials.

Gicam technology addresses all your challenges

Our expertise covers all fields and their specific requirements

Sotimeco - DED Gicam Wire Laser (WLAM) and Powder Laser (LMD) Technology
Aeronautics and Space

Critical parts, zero tolerance. Strict aerospace standards, full traceability, MIL-SPEC. Gicam 2000S is aerospace-certified.

Defense & Naval

Duplex steels, NAB bronze, armor plating. Operational readiness, control over spare parts, corrosive environments.

Energy & Environment

Turbines, rotors, heat exchangers. Creep, thermal fatigue, costly downtime during plant outages.

Heavy Industry & Process

Rollers, pulleys, augers. Continuous abrasive wear; large components with long lead times for replacement.

Power Transmission

Shafts, pinions, gearboxes. Bearing contact areas, concentricity, fatigue life under cyclic loading.

Mobility & Infrastructure

Axles, tracks, cutting components. Repeated wear and tear in the field; cost of replacement versus repair.

Production & Tooling

Dies, punches, injection molds. Localized wear, production line downtime, time to resume operation.

Health

Implants, surgical instruments. Biocompatibility, regulatory traceability, one-of-a-kind per patient.

La technologie Sotimeco de fabrication additive métallique par DED (projet DED2LEARN) est cofinancée par l’Union européenne avec le Fonds Européen de Développement Régional (FEDER). La Région et l’Union Européenne soutiennent le projet Sotimeco dans le cadre du dispositif de relance de l’Union Européenne en réponse à la pandémie de COVID-19 du Programme Opérationnel FEDER/FSE (Aquitaine/Limousin/Poitou-Charentes) 2014-2020.
