Large Component Repair & Modification
ADDere reduces costs by eliminating the need to replace parts
Having the ability to apply a material to previously produced metal parts opens the door to repairing expensive or hard-to-produce components. By applying materials as fillers for cracked components or rebuilding worn or missing aspects of a part, ADDere creates the ability to sidestep the process of replacing large or expensive components that were previously too expensive or even impossible to fix.
ADDere also can make it possible to modify components already in the field for new applications or to fit new technology to older systems where the original drawings are unavailable or the adaptation of the technology would require the construction of prohibitively expensive replacement components.
Large components typically found in the oil & gas, power generation, heavy construction, mining or specialized military applications are excellent examples of where ADDere’s ability at repairing or modifying pre-existing components can make a lot of sense.
If your business is looking for a fast, cost-effective way to do large component modifications, please contact us today. The ADDere large-scale additive manufacturing process can print in sizes and materials to fit your business’s needs.
