3-Axis Additive Hybrid CNC Machining

JUPITER + MELTIO INTEGRATION = COMPLEX PARTS WITHIN HOURS; NOT DAYS

Key Facts

The NEW JUPITER VMC4024-WLMD is a Premium Hybrid Additive-Subtractive CNC machine center which combines high performance speed and accuracy with an integrated Wire Laser Metal Deposition (WLMD) patented system by MELTIO.  The new Jupiter CNC Machine Additive System is “Power by Meltio” and prints 3D metal parts using wire not powder. The WLMD system offers a selection of 14 different metal types such as Mild steel, Stainless Steel, Alloy Steels, Titanium, and others. The 3D part is printed to a “Near Net Finish” (within .040”) shape which dramatically reduces machine cycle time, fixtures, design and machined work holding, tooling, and setup time.

The printed parts are very similar to forged parts but has higher densification, virtually eliminating voids and porosity, does not have a grain like billet material making it stronger, and parts are unlimited in shape. The work/print part envelope is 36” X 20” X 20”.

  • No billet material is needed- eliminating traditional 12 lengths storage.
  • RAW material does not have to be sawed to machine length.
  • Parts can be repaired or reworked by printing, adding material using the WLMD additive process.
  • Forging dies, Injection Molds, or machine parts can be reworked by adding material and then is finish machining.
  • High wear items like tooling, shafts, bearings, journals, augers, and other parts, can be “reclad” and machined.
  • Automation ready, with robotic tending and auto doors available.

When parts are not being printed the CNC machine performs everyday machine operations producing traditional production parts.  Also, all standard accessories can be added as well. Some are, 4th axis, rotary tables, vises, three jaw chucks, and other fixtures.
