Interspectral secures RnD funding for advancing Additive Manufacturing Projects with Leading Research institutes and industrial partners— Learn More at Formnext!

Interspectral announces two new RnD projects in metal additive manufacturing. These projects— “Resilient and Resource efficient Additive Manufacturing of large/complex added value parts (RES2AM) and “Enhanced Software Control for Rapid Optimised World Class Metal Additive Manufacturing (ESCROW)” — aim to transform manufacturing practices with a focus on the industrial sectors. Interspectral will collaborate with prominent industry and research partners to introduce innovative AI-driven monitoring and simulation tools, fostering a new era of sustainable and efficient manufacturing.

Resilient and Resource efficient Additive Manufacturing of large/complex added value parts (RES2AM)

The RES2AM project seeks to create resilient and resource-efficient additive manufacturing for large, complex metallic components using powder bed fusion with laser beam (PBF-LB). Alongside RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, Interspectral will collaborate with Chalmers University of Technology, GKN Aerospace Sweden AB, Nikon SLM Solutions, and Quintus Technologies AB. The RES2AM project adopts a two-stage approach. In Stage 1, pilot solutions will be developed and validated, focusing on design frameworks, real-time monitoring systems, and advanced thermal management for large-scale AM parts. This stage lays the groundwork by testing solutions in industrial settings. In Stage 2, a system demonstrator will be implemented to reach industrial readiness, targeting high-quality, resilient AM processes tailored for aerospace and energy sectors. Interspectral’s contribution is focused on developing new AI-powered analytics functionality that empowers industry stakeholders with insights for process stability and efficiency.

Enhanced Software Control for Rapid Optimised World class metal additive manufacturing (ESCROW)

In ESCROW, Interspectral joins forces with SIMTEC Soft Sweden AB and Chalmers University of Technology to advance metal additive manufacturing by integrating AI-based real-time monitoring systems. The project focuses on optimizing the production of high-performance alloys like Alloy 718 and Ti-6-4 through advanced CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations, enabling precise process control and minimizing material waste. Interspectral’s role centers on developing sophisticated AI models that predict and adjust critical parameters, ultimately driving up production quality and speed.

These projects mark a significant step forward in sustainable manufacturing practices, demonstrating the strength of collaboration among Sweden’s innovators. Through these initiatives, Interspectral and its partners aim to contribute meaningful improvements to high-performance manufacturing across various sectors.
