Construction & Design reconsider - new ways and possibilities with 3D printing / additive manufacturing process various processes and tools are needed to reach the goal | I want to help you

Metal3D SA Has been established in order to become a key player on the fast developing market of the 3D metal printing. Metal3D SA is a valuable partner for any company wishes to benefit from this innovative technology, by offering engineering and manufacturing services. We are aware that obtaining a state-of-the-art technology doesn’t end with equipment delivery. In itself, equipment doesn’t generate new competences. The real challenge is to develop the skills and knowledge to fit this innovative process into the current market needs. Not only to target in engineering, aiming on “how a metal part should be printed”, but to optimally combine 3D printing with the traditional manufacturing technologies to generate the maximum benefit. Metal 3D Printing Equipment We had carefully analyzed the currently available technologies in this field and we had chosen to invest in this very first step in the Studio System+ from Desktop Metal Inc. and the Bound Metal Deposition (BMD®) technology. BMD is the newest, but also the most mature technology in this field. BMD substantially relies on MIM (Metal Injection Molding), a mature and proven production technology for metal parts. MIM produces metal components in three steps. Initially a mixture of metal powder with a thermoplastic binder is injected in a mold in a process similar to injection molding. From this stage we get the so called “green body” of the part. In a subsequent step, the binder is removed from the “green body”, leading to a brittle part known as “brown body”. Finally the “brown body” is sintered and the final sound metal part is produced. BMD follows also these three stages with only a major difference on the first stage. The “green body”, instead of being molded, it is built by a 3D printer, which is similar to the FDM plastic 3D printers. Raw material has not the form of filament, but of rods made of a thermoplastic binder with a high concentration of metal. Metal3D SA Services We provide a complete range of services in the field of custom metal 3d printing. To do so, we assist our customers in the first and most important question: “Will it be of any benefit to 3D print a metal part compared to the traditional manufacturing operations?” In detail, we offer: 1. 3D printing of metal components as a service, including engineering consultancy for the adaptation of the part design on the specific requirements of this new production method 2. A wide range of post printing operations, i.e. high precision CNC machining, surface treatments, thermal treatments etc. 3. Metal 3D printing of cavity inserts for the construction of low volume injection molds and production of the plastic moldings. 4. Functional assemblies comprised by metal (3D printed or/and machined) components, plastics (molded or 3D printed) and standard items. 3D Printing Metals We currently have experience with two materials: • 17-4PH (EN 1.4542). A versatile stainless steel featuring substantial mechanical properties (ultimate tensile strength 1042MPa) and hardness (HRC 37). 17-4PH can be furthermore hardened (up to 48HRC) and also plasma nitriding. 17-4PH meets a 98% density after sintering • 316L. Characterized by its corrosion resistance and performance at both high and low temperatures, 316L is a fully austenitic stainless steel. It is used often in applications involving chemical processing, salt water environments, and household or industrial fixtures. Before the end of 2019 we will start using also H13, as soon as it is released from Desktop Metal. H13 is a chromium hot-work steel, which is widely used in hot and cold work tooling applications. Due to its excellent combination of high toughness and fatigue resistance. H13 is used more than any other tool steel in tooling applications. Desktop Metal plans to release also the following materials: Alloy 625, AISI 4140, and Copper.

We mainly produce fiber composite components using the manufacturing processes vacuum infusion, RTM and autoclave technology. we have various 5-axis milling capacities for this.

In the almost 300-year history of the company, our ancestors have experienced many ups and downs. Today we produce high-precision tools for die casting and injection moulds, measuring and testing gauges, but also small and medium series of compinents, which have partcular and challenging details. We are constantly working to keep our company fit for the future through innovation and further development at both the process and employee levels. That is why we work with an automated cell to which two HSC milling machines and a measuring and an EDM machine are connected. We also have various other technologies in-house, such as 5-axis machining centers, wire erosion machines and grinding machines.

In tool and plant engineering, employees form the central element of our comprehensive quality strategy, which involves all departments, in addition to state-of-the-art equipment. All employees have qualified vocational training and usually have many years of experience. Our strategy is supplemented by a specific KVP process, an in-house suggestion system and a certified management system in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001. Our definition of quality includes not only functionality and precision, but also reliability and durability. As a result, our products guarantee maximum added value in our customers' production. Meissner tools and equipment are a worthwhile investment. Our portfolio includes tools for the automotive and non-automotive sectors, including casting tools for engine blocks, cylinder heads and castings, blow molds for fuel tanks and filler pipes, as well as tools for the production of vehicle lining parts from various materials. We also offer accompanying systems, devices, automation solutions and comprehensive services for all products “manufacturer-independent”. We also support our customers in developing new technologies and manufacturing methods. Meissner offers more than standard. Our large machine park with boring machines and 5-axis milling machines enables the processing of components in excess of standard dimensions. For eroding and brushing, we offer machines with a head load of up to three tons so that even large tools can be processed safely and reliably. The CNC turning and milling center offers complete processing in one step.
