On October 16, 2020, the "AMotion Center Experience Day and Technical Seminar" organized by GF Machining Solutions was held in Shanghai.
As a Swiss machine tool brand with a century-old history, GF's machining plan is in the field of additive manufacturing. It is the first to cooperate with 3D Systems and other companies to create an integrated solution for metal additive and subtractive materials, which is a leader in the 3D printing industry. of. In the past, 3D printing technology was preached as omnipotent, but in actual production, in order to deliver a complete final product for customers, 3D printing must be combined with traditional manufacturing technologies and processes.
At this conference, the AMotion Center officially unveiled by GF's processing program is an innovative technology center based on the above concept. GF is dedicated to providing an unprecedented solution for the entire process of adding and subtracting materials for the field of metal additive manufacturing. Thinking integration design, software, equipment and post-processing technology.
At the opening ceremony, Chen Yixiang, Marketing President of GF Machining Solutions China, Zeng Shaolian, Secretary General of Shanghai Additive Manufacturing Association, Huang Zhihong, General Manager of Advanced Manufacturing Industry of GF Machining Solutions China, and Marco, Business Development Manager of GF Machining Solutions, delivered speeches respectively.
Chen Yixiang said in his speech: "In the past five years, we have not only established our own professional technical team, global technical support and service network, but also relying on our application support and process expertise, we have been able to integrate ourselves in the field of precision machining. The advantages are fully integrated with the innovative technology of the well-known 3D printing brand 3D Systems, and the industry's first additive manufacturing wire cutting machine CUT AM500 has been developed, and the rapid clamping and positioning technology suitable for 3D printing has opened up the metal additive manufacturing process chain The entire link enables users to obtain a truly end-to-end complete solution." "As the first additive center AMotion Center of GF Processing Solutions Asia, it is an important milestone for us to explore in the field of additive manufacturing."
Zeng Shaolian said in his speech: "GF's AMotion Center has given a very good demonstration of how additive manufacturing and manufacturing can be integrated. Additive manufacturing is playing its unique advantages and charm in the fields of molds, aerospace, and automobiles. We welcome it very much. GF brings advanced foreign manufacturing technology to China and brings innovative value to Chinese customers. In addition, GF is welcome to officially join the Shanghai Additive Manufacturing Association."
Huang Zhihong introduced to the guests the development overview of GF processing solutions, the full-process solution of adding and reducing materials, and explained the meaning and mission of AMotion Center. Huang Zhihong said: "AMotion is the abbreviation of Additive Manufacturing Motion. We hope to bring new impetus to this industry, and we want to promote the progress of this industry."
Marco, the business development manager of GF Machining Solutions, sent a congratulatory message at the AMotion Center in Stabio, Switzerland. He said: "GF Machining Solutions has become one of only six companies in the world that have obtained NADCAP aerospace additive manufacturing certification."
Afterwards, GF Machining Solutions led the guests to visit the AMotion Center and the application case display in the four major fields of aerospace, medical, automotive, and mold.
At the opening ceremony, GF Machining Solutions opened up all the software and hardware in the AMotion Center. According to Antarctic Bear, the AMotion Center is equipped with two metal 3D printers DMP Flex 350 launched by GF and 3D Systems, and one GF Machining Solution The line cutting equipment CUT AM500, a GF five-axis machining center MILL E 500 U, and a series of post-processing equipment such as powder cleaning, heat treatment, and powder recovery.
