Italian additive manufacturing service Addivate has acquired an ARGO 1000 HYPERMELT to expand its fleet of ROBOZE polymer 3D printers.
The company is already running four ROBOZE ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED systems, but sees the ARGO 1000 HYPERMELT as a way of expanding the range of applications it can address with additive manufacturing. Printing larger components is considered a key area of interest for Addivate.
By operating four ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED systems at full capacity, Addivate is said to have built a 'scalable manufacturing environment' capable of supporting 'demanding applications' across industries including motorsport, aerospace and advanced manufacturing.
“At Addivate, our goal is to transform additive manufacturing into a true production technology. Reaching full capacity with our four ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED systems confirmed both the growing demand from our customers and the reliability of this manufacturing model. Adding ARGO 1000 HYPERMELT is the natural next step for us, allowing us to further expand our capacity, address larger applications and continue scaling our production capabilities,” said Enrico Solinas, CEO and Co-founder of Addivate.
“Addivate’s growth is a strong example of what happens when additive manufacturing becomes real production infrastructure rather than simply a prototyping tool. After bringing four ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED systems to full utilisation, they are now expanding with ARGO 1000 HYPERMELT. This is exactly the type of scalable manufacturing model we want to enable: increasing capacity as demand grows while using the right technology for each production requirement,” added Alessio Lorusso, Founder & CEO of ROBOZE.
