AddUp and Interspectral sign development and licensing agreement

AddUp, a global metal additive manufacturing OEM offering multi-technology production systems, well known for its FormUp and BeAM 3D printers, has entered a development and license agreement with the Swedish 3D visualization and data fusion software company Interspectral.

AddUp’s FormUp 350 includes one of the most advanced monitoring suites available on the market, based on three solutions working in synergy. After the successful launch of AddUp Dashboards last February and the introduction of a closed-loop powder bed monitoring solution, the company is now focused on melt pool control. Based on multi-sensor hardware mounted into the optical chain, this system tracks in real-time power and emissivity drifts, along with the physical position of the lasers’ spot by achieving micron-level accuracy for every single layer and tailoring datasets to different user profiles; this solution provides valuable insights for many other job functions, such as quality experts working towards serial production.

AM Explorer, developed by Interspectral, is an OEM agnostic 3D visualization software that allows end users to create multi-channel digital twins from design, simulation, monitoring, and post-build part analysis data collected during the AM process.

With AM Explorer, AddUp customers will now be able to explore and analyze the massive melt pool datasets in full 3D with data collected both during and after production.

“This is a major breakthrough in the additive manufacturing industry and the first in-depth OEM integration of our multi-channel visualization solution AM Explorer. Through this in-depth integration, Interspectral and AddUp have empowered 3D printers with AM Explorer to achieve optimized efficiency for additive manufacturing production” says Isabelle Hachette, CEO at Interspectral.

The development and license agreement entered by both parties will lead to new major releases of AM Explorer that will be bundled with AddUp’s melt pool monitoring solution. A first version of AM Explorer with AddUp integration will be demonstrated at Formnext this November in the AddUp booth (Hall 12, E01).
