AML3D Limited reports an order for approximately A$4.5 million, for 2 custom ARCEMY systems from HII’s Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS) division. HII is a large U.S. military shipbuilder delivering ships, submarines and defense technology. AML3D expects the NNS custom ARCEMY system to be installed and operational during the second quarter of 2026.
The NNS custom systems are based on the large-scale ARCEMY X but use a 10,886 kg positioner to create a heavy capacity build capability. The NNS custom ARCEMY system will be used for various shipbuilding applications. These systems are the second and third heavy capacity ARCEMY systems to be deployed and represent the 9th and 10th ARCEMY systems overall, ordered to support the U.S. Navy Maritime Industrial Base.
HII is integrating AML3D’s advanced additive manufacturing into its technology suite to expedite lead times and provide alternatives to traditional manufacturing techniques, AML3D reports. AML3D’s ARCEMY systems produce components that meet or exceed traditional manufacturing standards with reductions in lead times, waste and environmental impacts.
