Technology & Products
Key Products
["Aquilo (FGF) - Large Format Additive Manufacturing system with robot, pellet extruder, and heated bed","Wire DED Metal AM systems (including Meltio laser head integration for WAAM/DED)","AdaOne slicing software platform (distributed through partnership with Adaxis)","Custom robotic cell configurations with ABB, KUKA, Fanuc, and Yaskawa robots","Path planning and robot programming solutions for multi-axis printing","Accessories: rotational tables, heavy-duty positioners, 20m rail tracks, milling heads for post-processing","Material drying systems and zone-controlled heated beds"]
Technological Advantage
Offers unique combination of (1) custom hardware integration with leading industrial robots, (2) advanced slicing software through AdaOne/Adaxis partnership with capabilities like geodesic, sweep-based, and non-planar slicing strategies, (3) multi-material support (metal WAAM/DED and polymer FGF), and (4) proprietary expertise in robot motion precision through Cognibotics partnership (Parallel-Kinematics SigmaTau and Hybrid-Kinematics HKM robots). Systems are highly customizable with modular components (rails, positioners, beds, extruders) to fit customer facilities and budgets.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Combines decades of automation expertise with advanced robotic additive manufacturing to deliver customizable, scalable production cells that significantly reduce lead times and enable manufacturing of large, complex parts that traditional methods cannot efficiently produce
How They Differentiate
Unique dual-material capability (metal WAAM/DED and polymer FGF through Aquilo system), combining 25+ years of automation expertise from parent Spectrum Technology AB with advanced slicing software via Adaxis partnership, integration of Cognibotics' parallel-kinematics robots for enhanced precision, and EU-funded research heritage from SoftDream project with RISE
