Technology & Products

Key Products

FAMAero specializes in large-scale metal 3D printed parts using Sciaky's Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing (EBAM) technology for aerospace, defense, and industrial applications.

Technological Advantage

Proprietary IRISS process control system from Sciaky ensures consistent quality with virtually no inconsistencies from first to last layer; deposition rates up to 10x faster than traditional methods.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Reduces production time and costs by up to 10x compared to traditional forging and casting methods, offering the largest build platform (146" x 62" x 62") and exotic metal selection in the 3D parts service market.

How They Differentiate

Largest build volume (146" x 62" x 62") in the market vs. typical metal AM systems; focused solely on large-scale metal parts service vs. broader AM hardware/software competitors; uses EBAM for faster deposition rates (up to 10x) compared to LPBF or other metal AM processes.
