Metal additive manufacturing (AM) is a process with demanding requirements for in-process material management, specifically with regard to the use of powdered metals. The Calibur3 system from Wayland Additive, enabled by the NeuBeam process, not only redefines how the electron beam (eBeam) process can be applied in a more stable and flexible way, but also offers a number of unprecedented powder-dispense capabilities for metal AM. 

The Calibur3 system allows users to measure powder dispensing and flow to optimize powder usage and extend overall powder recycling to achieve greater economies of scale. (There is an animation here.)

Wayland Additive has brought knowledgeable personnel on board to further the development of the NeuBeam process, the Calibur3 system, and the capabilities they can offer. Specific attention has been given to the disciplines of material science and mechanical engineering.
