Aluminum is one of the most widely used metals in HVAC, aerospace and automotive manufacturing, yet it remains one of the hardest to 3D print at industrial scale. Most metal AM systems also confine you to a fixed build chamber, separate from the rest of your production line.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this webinar, the ValCUN team explains how its Molten Metal Deposition (MMD) process moves from a standalone printer to a printhead, REMUS, that mounts on robotic arms, CNC machines and production lines. MMD melts standard aluminum wire and deposits it in a single step, without lasers or powder. Because REMUS isn\u2019t tied to a build plate, it can print large parts, follow non-planar paths and add material directly onto existing components. That makes it a complement to milling and other conventional processes rather than a replacement.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What We\u2019ll Cover:<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Why aluminum is hard to print: what limits current metal AM processes for aluminum, and why many alloys used in industry are still considered difficult to print.<\/li>\n<li>From printer to printhead: how MMD works, and what changes when the process is mounted on a robot or CNC machine instead of enclosed in a machine with a heated bed. \u25b8 Beyond the build volume: large-format printing, non-planar deposition, and adding features to or repairing existing parts.<\/li>\n<li>Hybrid manufacturing: combining additive deposition with CNC milling in one workflow, and where that saves time and material.<\/li>\n<li>Materials and integration: working with standard and high-strength aluminum alloys, and what it takes to integrate REMUS into an existing robot cell or machine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Who Should Attend:<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Manufacturing and production engineers, AM managers, R&amp;D leads and robotics integrators in sectors like HVAC, aerospace, automotive, defence and general metalworking who are looking for a faster, flexible way to produce or modify aluminum parts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If your products rely on aluminum parts that are expensive to machine, slow to source or impossible to cast in low volumes, this session is for you.
