Large Format Additive Manufacturing (LFAM) is a developing technology with a steadily increasing foothold within commercial manufacturing that enables the creation of **large-volume polymer/plastic components with high printing outputs**. It is an exciting proposition with the potential to deliver impactful and wide-ranging economic, environmental, and social benefits, and conservative estimation is for a global market worth £1b by 2025\.Currently, the UK only secures ~5% of the global AM market, however, conclusions from a recent, comprehensive market analysis suggest that an exploitable opportunity exists for LFAM to significantly improve this situation.The existing commercial LFAM market is comprised of overseas-manufactured machines, and these mainly have operational complexity, slow build times, limited material range, and poor-quality products, which precludes widespread adoption. Better-performing offerings are prohibitively expensive.The UK has no LFAM machine manufacturing capability, whilst leading competitors have this advantage.The EVO-ONE project has been scoped to comprehensively address challenges to securing a market-leading position through designing, manufacturing, and constructing **a technologically advanced LFAM** **3D printer system (EVO-ONE)** and taking the platform to TRL 6\.EVO-ONE offers unique advantages:* **Affordable purchase and operation costs*** **Faster productivity*** **Quality products*** **Reliability*** **Increased capability*** **Ergonomic, easy to use*** **Adaptability/flexibility*** **Minimised waste, energy, and emissions*** **Wide range of recycled material feedstock**The realisation of this advanced system will provide UK stakeholders with proprietary capability, enabling EVO-3D to exploit the **high integrity/high-value manufacturing sectors, with an estimated £300m worth.**The consortium benefits from well-established partner relations and has the prerequisite skills, knowledge, expertise, and experience to achieve success:* **EVO-3D** machine design and manufacture* **AiBuild** CAM software developer* **Filamentive** recycled feedstock identification, qualification, supply* **NMIS** Additive Manufacturing, polymer material testing, and routes to exploitation/ commercialisation expertise* **Rolls-Royce and Baker Hughes** end-use-case provision, continuous feedback during the development stage to de-risk progressive activity, ensure commercial success

大幅面增材制造（LFAM）是一项正在发展的技术，在商业制造中具有稳步增长的立足点，可以创建具有高打印输出的大容量聚合物/塑料组件**。这是一个令人兴奋的提议，有可能带来影响广泛的经济、环境和社会效益，保守估计，到2025年，全球市场价值将达到10亿英镑。目前，英国只确保约5%的全球AM市场，然而，从最近的结论，全面的市场分析表明，一个可利用的机会存在，为LFAM显著改善这种情况。现有的商用LFAM市场由海外制造的机器组成，这些机器主要具有操作复杂性，制造时间慢，材料范围有限，产品质量差，这阻碍了广泛采用。表现更好的产品价格高得令人望而却步。英国没有LFAM机器制造能力，而领先的竞争对手拥有这一优势。EVO-ONE项目的范围是通过设计、制造和建造技术先进的LFAM** **3D打印机系统(EVO-ONE)**，并将该平台提升到TRL 6\，全面解决确保市场领先地位的挑战。EVO-ONE具有独特的优势：* **经济实惠的采购和运营成本*** **更快的生产力*** **高质量的产品*** **可靠性*** **增强的能力*** **符合人体工程学，易于使用*** **适应性/灵活性*** **最大限度地减少浪费，能源和排放*** **广泛的回收材料原料**这一先进系统的实现将为英国利益相关者提供专有能力，使EVO-3D能够利用**高完整性/高价值的制造部门。估计价值3亿英镑。**该联盟受益于完善的合作伙伴关系，并拥有取得成功的先决技能、知识、专业知识和经验：* **EVO-3D**机器设计和制造** *AiBuild** CAM软件开发人员** *Filamentive**回收原料识别、认证、供应** *NMIS**增材制造、聚合物材料测试和开发/商业化专业知识路线** *罗尔斯·罗伊斯和贝克休斯**最终用例提供。在开发阶段持续反馈以降低活动的风险，确保商业成功
