9 Drivers Flow improvements Integration of functions Shorter time to market Mass customization Miniaturization Internal channels Freeform complexity for free Few design restrictions No moulds, no tooling Down to series of 1 Near net shape Sustainable Unique parts Prototyping Weight reductions Create metamaterials Less waste Shorter R&D cycles sirris info@sirris.be Product DRIVERS material efficiency - light weight structures flow optimalization integration of functions mass customization 18 9

10 DRIVERS FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING material efficiency / light weight structures What If we can use material, only there where needed 19 Helicopter frame Original (7) parts 530g 7 parts 3 materials Design volume Optimised structure 392g 2 parts 1 material 20 10

11 DRIVERS FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING Flow optimization What If we can create complex channels inside our products 21 Heat exchanger cm³ vs 244 cm³ 19.2 kg vs 1,2 kg 210 mm vs 85 mm 750 vs (112 parts) Pressure drops 90% reduced 22 11

12 DRIVERS FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING Integration of functions What If we can add multiple functionalities in one part 23 Jet engine nozzle Source: GE 25% lighter - results in significantly less fuel consumption! From 18 parts to 1 5 times more durable; no brazes and welds, less maintenance = more flying 24 12

13 summer 2015 edition sirris /06/ DRIVERS FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING mass customization What If we can start a serieproduction where each part is slightly different 26 13

17 Key Take Aways SUCCESS is in the design AM will not replace all traditional manufacturing technologies but AM can disrupt your business model Lessons learned 1 RESPONSIBLE for AM Task = find out what AM can bring to company. Involves colleagues where needed and gets official support. DO IT Make a (re)design of a component, together with an experienced party Low hanging fruit can be found in your production facility Result Get familiar with the technology Get confidence in the technology Get your colleagues involved 17
