Our solutions make it possible to quickly produce parts with high mechanical strength or to add a layer with a high degree of wear resistance by combining different materials
Although less common than powder bed fusion for mesh structures, DED is well-suited for thick-walled cages or those with machined bases: Sotimeco can adjust the porosity in these applications.
Multi-material combustion chambers and nozzles (copper-nickel, superalloys): Sotimeco can manufacture and repair them using DED Laser technology, including for rocket engines.
Porous on the bone side, dense and hard on the joint side: Sotimeco can combine two opposing functions in a single knee implant, with a transition controlled by DED Laser.
Adding functional material to an already forged rudder blade—whether for civilian or military use—without starting from scratch: Sotimeco can do this using DED Laser technology.
A porous structure deposited directly onto the anchorage area of a titanium femoral stem: Sotimeco can manufacture it using DED laser technology to promote osseointegration.
Bosses, flanges, and reinforcements: Sotimeco can add them using DED Laser technology directly to an already forged landing gear component, without having to start from scratch.
