Cyient enhances additive manufacturing solutions
Hyderabad: Strengthening its design-led manufacturing capabilities, Hyderabad-based Cyient has installed a new SLM 280 system following international support from SLM Solutions. It is integrated into the company’s first metal additive manufacturing facility in Jupiter, Florida.
With over 100 specialised engineers in design optimisation for additive manufacturing, Cyient looks to further enhance its rapid development capabilities critical for digital manufacturing solutions.
Referring to the new development, Rajendra Velagapudi, SVP, Cyient, said, “Cyient has successfully designed and manufactured metal additive components for some of its key customers—including the delivery of tooling components for a large aircraft engine manufacturer. Embracing digital transformation with additive manufacturing will allow faster innovation, design, and manufacture of more complex metal parts with quick turnaround time, new business models, and competitive advantage.”
He added, “The new SLM 280 enables us to offer manufactured components directly to our customers in aerospace, defence, medical, and energy. This is a key milestone on our road to becoming an end-to-end additive manufacturing solutions provider.”
The SLM 280 selective laser melting system offers 80 per cent higher build rates than competitive offerings. This is accomplished with high-energy, multi-laser optics, bi-directional powder re-coating, and a 25 per cent larger build platform that ensures consistent and repeatable part quality and best-in-class productivity.
