September 6, 2024
Meltio, a company involved in industrial laser metal deposition technology, reports that Godiz, an industrial machining services provider, has become the first official Service Bureau for Meltio's wire-laser metal 3D printing solutions in Spain and Portugal. This milestone, achieved in collaboration with Sicnova, Meltio's sales partner in the Iberian Peninsula, positions Godiz at the forefront of advanced metal additive manufacturing in the region in southern Europe.
With this new agreement, any type of industry in Spain and Portugal can request Godiz to 3D print metal parts thanks to Meltio's wire-laser metal 3D printing technology.
Through this partnership, Godiz offers its industrial clients the Meltio Engine Robot Integration, enhancing their robotic cell capabilities for production and repair of metal parts using Meltio's wire-laser technology. This solution is tailored to meet demands of complex applications across various industrial sectors.
Meltio’s multimetal 3D printing technology layers weld beads using commodity welding wire, introduced into a laser-generated meltpool. This process, known for its safety and cost-effectiveness, uses metal feedstock.
The Meltio Engine Robot Integration integrates with existing robotic equipment, bringing new manufacturing capabilities to a range of industries. This technology enables the creation of complex large parts with machining-level tolerances in a single step.
“With the acquisition of Meltio's technology, we are closer to achieving our goal of being able to manufacture any type of part that would be practically impossible through conventional methods,” says Francisco Gómez, CEO of Godiz, about this partnership. “This, along with our already established machining service, allows us to manufacture almost any type of part across a wide range of materials. Our goal is also to carry out repairs on high-value materials using the cladding technique, repairs that until now were outside our service portfolio.”
“We are thrilled to be working with Godiz and Sicnova, as the collaboration between sales and integration partners within the Meltio ecosystem is critical to fast-track technology adoption in a territory,” says Francisco González, sales EMEA manager at Meltio, addressing the value of this agreement. “With Godiz’s expertise we are now able to bring an end-to-end solution to customers that require hybrid manufacturing metal printed parts in Spain and Portugal.”
Godiz, a Spanish company specializing in lathing, milling, drilling, and welding technologies, focuses on developing machining solutions for its industrial clients.
Sicnova has been the exclusive distributor of Meltio’s technology in Spain and Portugal since 2019.
