Optomec expands additive manufacturing offerings

Optomec (Albuquerque, NM), which supplies production-grade additive manufacturing systems for 3D-printed metals and electronics, has signed a distribution agreement with Detekt Technologies (North Point, Hong Kong), which provides industrial additive manufacturing services and systems to the greater China and Taiwan markets, to expand sales of its LENS and Aerosol Jet systems in Asia.

Optomec Aerosol Jet printers provide high-resolution 3D printing capabilities required to manufacture smaller, lighter-weight, high-performance devices used in industries such as aerospace, defense, and consumer electronics.

LENS printers use the energy from a high-power laser to build up structures one layer at a time directly from powdered metals. The LENS process can completely build new metal parts or add material to existing metal components for repair and hybrid manufacturing applications.
