Services
For aerospace, defense, energy and manufacturing.
Metal additive manufacturing will breathe life into your most ambitious design ideas. At AME, we’ve pioneered innovative techniques and we’re known industry-wide as a reliable service provider producing intricate metal parts, prototypes and models. Our laser powder bed fusion systems create incredible engineering works every day.
Three things we do every day, on the floor in Huntsville.
01
The experience of AME’s engineers combined with advanced 3D metal additive manufacturing machines and processes give us the leading edge when it comes to bringing your designs to life. Bring your CAD files and let’s make it happen.
Metal additive manufacturing explained02
This additive layer technology uses a laser beam to melt ultra thin layers of powdered metal on top of each other, allowing for advanced internal designs and features.
The metal 3D printing service
03
We utilize an EOS M400 to produce our metal 3D printed parts using the laser powder bed fusion (SLM) process. Our parts are produced from Inconel 718 and GRCop-42 alloys. Other metals available on request when volume requirements are met.
