Wayland Additive and EWI sign MoU

The agreement marks a collaborative effort to extend the production capabilities of eBeam metal additive manufacturing with the purchase of a Wayland Additive Calibur3 system by EWI.

Wayland Additive has signed a memorandum of understanding with EWI Inc. The purpose of this MoU is to solidify the joint collaboration between the two parties with the stated intention of EWI purchasing a Calibur3 system, which will be installed and run at EWI’s Buffalo Manufacturing Works facility in the USA with full support from Wayland.

EWI is a well-established, independent engineering consultancy with comprehensive labs and advanced manufacturing technology resources dedicated specifically to production process development and improvement. Trusted across industry and government, EWI’s reputation for working with advanced metal additive manufacturing (AM) processes to deliver real engineering solutions is first-class. To this end, in partnership with Wayland, EWI will be looking to leverage the capabilities of Calibur3 and identify new opportunities for metal AM production applications.

Wayland Additive has developed and commercialised the Calibur3 production system, which has been built from the ground up based on the company’s proprietary NeuBeam AM process. NeuBeam is an electron beam (eBeam) powder bed fusion (PBF) that overcomes many of the compromises that most users have to contend with when using metal AM – whether laser or eBeam. Specifically, the new NeuBeam process neutralizes the charge accumulation generated by the electron beam, which thus offers greater flexibility than laser PBF while overcoming the stability issues of traditional eBeam PBF.

Together, EWI and Wayland will work together to identify and fulfil collaborative commercial and government projects based on the strengths of both organizations. They will also work in partnership to further advance the state-of-the art of eBeam PBF.
