Multistation, a longtime supplier of producing companies and methods, is about to behave as a distributor for 2 of 3D Lab’s machines in France, specifically the ATO Lab Plus and ATO Noble. The important thing promoting factors of those machines embrace their compact dimension suitability for laboratories, the aptitude to provide small batches, and an inexpensive value level.

3D Lab is a number one innovator within the manufacturing of extremely spherical metallic powders, using their pioneering ATO atomizers in a ground-breaking course of relevant for universities, analysis departments, service bureaus, and now additionally industrial customers.

ATO expertise operates by using ultrasonic vibrations to disintegrate molten metallic into tiny droplets. These droplets promptly solidify below an inert gas-protective ambiance to type metallic powder. The resultant particle dimension of the metallic powder depends on the frequency of the ultrasonic vibrations, with increased frequencies producing smaller particles and decrease frequencies yielding bigger ones. Notably, the system accommodates numerous types of enter materials reminiscent of wires, rods, pellets, granulates, and scraps.

3D Lab has a powerful gross sales observe report, with greater than 60 machines offered globally for each tutorial and industrial functions. Noteworthy purchasers embrace TECHNION, College of Brno, College of Maribor, ETH, CEA, Mitsubishi, and Panasonic. The partnership with Multistation is about to extend these gross sales figures, with Multistation endeavor the distribution of 3D Lab’s machines in France.

Since its inception in 2007, 3D Lab has accrued over 15 years of experience in additive manufacturing applied sciences, with a selected deal with new materials creation. Their collaborative ventures with famend 3D printer producers reminiscent of 3D Programs, Coherent, and 2OneLab, coupled with their funding in R&D, have resulted within the improvement and patenting of the ultrasonic atomization course of.

Based in 1987, Multistation provides a complete portfolio of machine instruments, machines for composites industrialization, and a full vary of metallic, non-metal, and composites additive manufacturing machines. It caters to a number of industries, together with automotive, aerospace, railway, power, medical, subcontractor, training, and R&D. Their consumer roster includes main companies reminiscent of Renault, Peugeot, Safran, Airbus, SNCF, and Cartier, spanning France, North Africa, and numerous different nations worldwide. Along with new machines, Multistation Second Life additionally provides secondhand machines.
