At Formnext 2024 in Frankfurt, 1000 Kelvin is presenting an extended version of its AI-based co-pilot AMAIZE. The new version, AMAIZE 2.0, covers almost the entire laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) workflow and is designed to significantly improve the efficiency and reliability of additive manufacturing.
AMAIZE 2.0 offers a range of advanced automation tools that address common challenges in additive manufacturing. These include a Printability Checker that automatically validates and optimizes designs, reducing the number of revisions required by up to 40%. An integrated Cost Estimator provides precise cost estimates, improving the accuracy of quotations by 30%. The automated support structure creation feature uses physics-based algorithms to reduce material consumption by up to 20% and make print preparation accessible to less experienced users. In addition, the exposure strategy optimizes the printing process through AI-controlled parameters, reducing the error rate by 50%.
The new functions of AMAIZE 2.0 significantly increase the efficiency and quality of the production process. Initial users such as EMERSON, HENNgineered and FKM report significant improvements in production and process reliability. Key benefits include higher Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and increased production throughput.
1000 Kelvin plans to further expand its AI-driven solutions to meet the increasing demands for agility, scalability and reliability in the manufacturing industry.
