AdamIQ™ algorithm cuts printing time of M300 Maraging Steel by 10%

Plotting the path to productivity. Productivity is the most significant issue in Additive Manufacturing. The machines are expensive and depreciation costs are the major factor in the cost of parts produced. Maximising the output of the equipment is the best way to drive down costs per part. As part costs come down, the range of applications addressable with Additive Manufacturing increases.

Addimen has previously beta-tested the AdamIQ™ algorithm to print parts in 316L. This time, the material used was M300. This Maraging Steel is typically used for conformal-cooling mould inserts for use in Plastic Injection Moulding, Hot Stamping, and High Pressure Die Casting.

The result confirms the effectiveness of the AdamIQ™ algorithm on a large, complex part that takes more than a week to print.
