Boeing has invested an undisclosed sum in Digital Alloys, a Burlington, Massachusetts-based company developing high-speed, multi-metal additive manufacturing systems that produce 3D-printed parts for aerospace and other production applications.
Digital Alloys’ Joule Printing technology is said to be able to “rapidly combine multiple metals into each part, which enhances thermal, electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties”.
The process allows metals like titanium and high-temperature alloys to be 3D-printed for parts that could be used on Boeing products. [Read more…] about Boeing invests in high-speed metal 3D printing company Digital Alloys
