3D printer manufacturer Titomic has sold its first machine to an Australian business for domestic use – a Titomic D623 cold spray system (pictured).
The company announced it has made the sale, valued at $174,000, to United Industrial Solutions, a specialist in coatings and corrosion mitigation for the resource sector.
United Industrial Solutions will leverage the D623 system to perform service work for energy suppliers as well as players in the marine industry, according to a statement.
“The D623’s primary application will be the deposition of corrosion-resistant coatings on critical oil and gas assets, primarily in Western Australia.
“These services aim to significantly extend the lifespan of these assets and improve their resilience in harsh marine environments.”
The D623 is the next generation of Titomic’s portable cold spray systems and is an advancement on the D523, as the D623 has a higher deposition rate and can deposit harder metals, while also increasing deposition rates.
The introduction of the D623 to industry has been strong, according to Titomic, with other sales made previously to Airbus, EPCOR, University Rey Juan Carlos, and Neue Materialien Bayreuth.
“Titomic’s cold spray technology provides unmatched performance in creating durable, corrosion-resistant coatings, helping industries extend the lifecycle of valuable infrastructure.”
