Many of BeAM’s customers consist of businesses in Aviation/Aerospace, Gas and Oil, and Universities.
DED is an additive manufacturing process where focused thermal energy is used to fuse materials by melting them as they are deposited. BeAM’s industrial solutions typically utilize a deposition nozzle mounted on the z-axis of a DED dedicated CNC machine.
This allows the continuous 5 axis freedom to build/repair components layer by layer without the need for support structures. Utilizing traditional CNC controls and using ISO g-code gives our customers tools that their skilled workforce is already accustomed to.

Directed Energy Deposition allows for new repair possibilities, the ability to add features, and the creation of near net shapes. Less machining and printing on complex geometries, allows for the maximization of value, and minimizes risks.
Some of the types of material that can be used in Directed Energy Deposition includes:
State of the art product development Rework of machined components Custom tooling Repair of worn components and tooling Material grading Complex geometry Add features instead of machining out of bulk material
Near Net Shapes
Feature Addition
Repairs
A near net shape or NNS is a 3D printed part build from scratch. Near Net Shapes have the ability to create large, complex shapes with specific mechanical properties and the ability to material grade.
A Feature addition is adding on a section or geometry to a part that was not previously there. This method can have multi-material applications and can be used in addition to the traditional process to significantly reduce the cost.
Repairs can be done on parts like worn shaft seals. These parts can be repaired up to 4 times before their life cycle is complete.
