Operational Development Cell for EBM (Electron Beam Melting) - FILTON

增材制造EBM（电子束熔化）单元的开发-FILTON是由GKN Aerospace领导的一项计划;旨在致力于建立英国第一家合格的增材制造研发设施，专门通过3D打印或增材制造（AM）开发高价值/高复杂性产品。增材制造是一项革命性的制造技术，通过使用先进的生产系统，将金属粉末一层一层地"打印"零件，从而实现高度复杂的轻型飞机和航空发动机零件的生产。AM生产的先进组件比传统组件轻50%，无浪费，新颖的设计，从而大幅减轻重量，提高效率和性能。GKN是航空航天和汽车行业的全球一级供应商，拥有丰富的管理研究和技术计划的经验和背景。

Development of an Additive Manufacturing EBM (electron beam melting) Cell – FILTON is an initiative led by GKN Aerospace; aimed at working toward the first qualified Additive Manufacturing R&D facility in the UK, specializing in developing high-value/high-complexity items via 3D printing or Additive Manufacturing (AM). AM is a revolutionary manufacturing technology enabling the production of highly complex lightweight aircraft and aero-engine parts using advanced production systems by ‘printing’ parts layer by layer from metal powders. The advanced components produced by AM can be up to 50% lighter than conventional components, no waste, new and novel designs, resulting in substantial weight reduction and increased efficiency & performance. GKN, global Tier 1 supplier for the Aerospace and Automotive industries, brings a wealth of experience and background managing research & technology initiatives.
