University Of Sheffield awarded a contract to GEO.

KINGSBURY HOLDINGS LIMITED for the supply of a Bulk Additive Manufacturing System (BAMS) for the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, North West Group at Preston, Lancashire.

The system is intended for manufacturing prototype components, specifically large aerospace structures with high buy-to-fly ratios, and to support research into bulk additive manufacturing, including process control, post-process integration, and materials development.

The BAMS must process aerospace materials, mainly titanium and aluminium alloys, in a safe environment, with material deposited via gantry axes motion arm with concurrent wire feed and heat source melting at a pre-programmed toolpath, and localised gas shielding to prevent oxidation of titanium alloys.

The contract value is £555,000.
