Accufacture, in collaboration with Meltio and Fanuc America, recently introduced the Alchemist 1, an innovative all-in-one additive manufacturing robotic workcell made in the U.S. Powered by Meltio’s Wire-Laser Metal Deposition (W-LMD) technology, Alchemist 1 delivers cost-effective production of large, fully dense metal parts, catering to the needs of automotive, aerospace, mining, oil and gas, and various other sectors.
Key features include a deposition rate of up to 1 kg per hour, a spacious build volume of 3.2 x 6.5 x 3.2 ft, and compatibility with inexpensive welding wire feedstock.
The pre-integrated Alchemist 1 Cell Made in the USA combines Meltio’s LW-DED (Directed Energy Deposition) head with a Fanuc six-axis robot and two-axis positioner within a laser-safe enclosure. Furthermore, the system comes with a complimentary Meltio Space robotic slicer license, though customers also have the flexibility to utilize other slicer technologies.
