Contract manufacturing firm Incodema3D has made a significant investment in additional metal additive manufacturing systems from EOS.
The company is anticipating delivery of four new EOS M 400-4 systems and an EOS M4 ONYX machine. Incodema3D has also placed an order for nine additional systems, of which four of them are EOS M4 ONYX machines, three are EOS M300-4 systems, and two are EOS M 400-4 platforms.
Once all machines have been delivered and installed, Incodema3D will be running a fleet of more than 50 metal 3D printers
The company has made this latest investment in line with a growth plan that will see its manufacturing capacity increase threefold by 2030. As part of this plan, a second manufacturing facility will be opened and its existing New York site will be expanded.
Since its first EOS system purchase in 2012, Incodema3D has consolidated its business exclusively around EOS metal AM technology at the 60,000 square foot New York facility. The vertically integrated company has established itself as a reliable provider of production-ready metal components, with these additional metal AM systems set to bolster its manufacturing capabilities.
“Through 2030, we project continued high growth, and our business requires us to expand our existing facilities, add a new facility, and significantly increase our hiring – all challenges we are tackling right now,” said Sean Whittaker, founder and CEO of Incodema3D. “With a sense of urgency to support national priorities, we truly feel that we are setting the bar for contracted metal AM production and have created well-oiled processes to produce everything from 10 mission-critical parts for a defence customer to 10,000 parts for an energy company.”
“We are constantly introducing process improvements and efficiencies through automation wherever possible to achieve quality and throughput,” said Matt Lewis, Incodema3D Vice President of Programs. “By integrating design for additive manufacturing, industrial-scale 3D printing, post-processing, precision machining, inspection, and fulfilment under one roof, we can move complex metal parts into production with speed, consistency, and confidence. This end-to-end approach allows us to support demanding production programs while reducing lead times, improving part performance, and simplifying the supply chain.”
“Incodema3D’s continued growth is a strong reflection of both their technical leadership and unerring vision for AM on an industrial scale,” offered Glynn Fletcher, president of EOS North America. “Our enduring collaboration with Sean and his extraordinary team is a privilege. The trust they have placed in EOS for more than a decade is something that we are very proud of.”
