Keselowski Advanced Manufacturing (KAM) says it is continuing to accelerate its integrated advanced manufacturing production capabilities by installing two more large-platform EOS M400-4 metal additive manufacturing (AM) printers for a total of 20 AM machines. With the additional EOS printers, KAM now offers five large-format EOS machines along with a full complement of midsize machines at its North Carolina facility.
“One of the biggest challenges to our industry is in building end-user confidence in the manufacturing supply chain,” says Brad Keselowski, KAM owner and founder. “The rapid growth in both volume and size of additively manufactured parts must be answered with a corresponding increase in machine bandwidth, material availability and finishing capability.”
This increase in large-format printers is said to parallel the recent industry demand surge for large metal hypersonic parts, heat exchangers, turbomachinery and monolithic components designed for space, aerospace and defense applications. In response, KAM says it is balancing a comprehensive fleet of 20 large and midsize additive machines alongside 12 multi-axis CNC machine tools for an integrated advanced manufacturing supply chain.
