One reason why we invested in Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) is because of its ability to significantly reduce lead times. Production timelines for large component parts can be cut by more than half compared to traditional methods like forging or casting.

We automate our operations and can run our facility 24/7, further increasing the speed of delivery and capacity we offer.

We manufacture large and ultra large-scale component parts using our 20 Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) systems and the supporting infrastructure around them. Single-arm production volume is up to 2.8 metres in diameter, 3.2 metres in height.

Multi-arm production volume, through the revolutionary HexBot, is up to 6.2 metres in diameter, 3.2 metres in height. Our capability is ideal for industries where there is demand to produce low volumes of large-scale metal component parts, including defence, maritime, offshore and other energy sectors.

We adhere to the highest industry standards and certifications. We work closely with DNV, one of the world’s leading classification societies, to put in place the highest levels of assurance in our output and procedures.

With our ISO:9001:2015 certified Quality Management System as our foundation, all of our procedures, materials, and facilities are approved to DNV standards. We undertake the material and product certification of the components we produce, rather than placing this burden on our clients. Taking an equivalency approach, we ensure we validate our outputs to the same, or higher, standards as a traditionally manufactured component.

We can produce complex design parts and we are able to tailor material, density and geometry to meet and exceed customer requirements.

From repair of in-service components to reverse engineering to optimisation of existing designs for DED-Arc manufacture, we are prepared to design and deliver a range of services for a variety of clients. Our engineer-to-engineer approach also allows us to deliver unique customised solutions at speed.

We offer bespoke material development for Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing, enabling alloys to be tailored for performance, large and/or complex parts, and application-specific requirements.

Our capability spans alloy selection and process–part–property correlation, underpinned by in-depth metallurgical characterisation and testing. By coupling controlled WAAM process development with microstructural, mechanical, and dimensional assessment, we accelerate the transition from material concept to qualified component. This service supports the development of both novel alloys and the optimisation of existing grades for structural, aerospace, marine, and industrial applications.
