DEEP “emerges” from stealth with WAAM 3D printed subsea habitat Industrial Additive Manufacturing

DEEP is emerging from stealth with the project of a subsea station that will revolutionize access to and understanding of our planet’s oceans. Scalable, modular, and autonomous, the DEEP Sentinel system will be built using primarily WAAM metal 3D printing technology. It has been designed for deployments up to 200m below the surface. This radically opens up access to the world’s continental shelves and the entirety of the Epipelagic Zone (sunlight zone), home to over 90% of marine life. To study, understand, and preserve Earth’s most important biome we must first be able to access it, and DEEP exists to develop technology for exactly that purpose.

Raise3D’s versatile approach to superior metal FFF Additive Manufacturing

Raise3D’s versatile approach to superior metal FFF Additive Manufacturing

When Raise3D first announced its MetalFuse solution for end-to-end metal fused filament fabrication in late 2021, it became one of a small number of companies in the AM industry to specialize in metal extrusion technologies. Today, the company’s solution is used for quickly and safely producing all sorts of metal products, from jigs and fixtures, to functional parts and prototypes, to small-batch end-use components. As we’ll see in more detail, Raise3D’s technology really excels when it comes to precision. This is enabled due to a combination of hardware and software optimizations, as well as a deep collaboration with materials developer BASF Forward AM. Let’s take a look at how the company’s Forge1 3D printer and MetalFuse workflow stand out within the metal AM and—even more specifically—metal FFF segments.
