On April 28 ExOne Co. (North Huntington, Pa., U.S.), a binder jet 3D printing technology company announced it has acquired the assets of Freshmade 3D (Youngstown), an Ohio-based startup with a patented method of creating durable AMClad tooling out of sand forms 3D-printed on ExOne machines for a wide range of composite tooling applications. The strategic move will strengthen ExOne’s position as a provider of large-format 3D-printed (also known as LFAM) tooling for industrial applications.
AMClad tooling, which is 3D printed in low-cost sand on ExOne systems and then infiltrated and coated using Freshmade 3D’s patented method, is said to eliminate weeks or months of time spent waiting for conventional tooling. What’s more, Freshmade 3D says, it typically offers a 30-50% cost savings.
