AREVO, the Silicon Valley company transforming composites manufacturing through digitalisation, will unveil at JEC World their new MaaS programme for the on-demand production of ultra-strong, lightweight 3D-printed composite parts.
In addition to its availability in the US, MaaS is also offered in Japan in partnership with AGC, Inc. (announced in November 2019) and new partner 3DPC. This service is based on AREVO’s “Aqua” platform, the world’s first industrial-grade continuous fibre 3D printing system capable of printing parts of up to one metre cubic volume and the Xplorator software.
With breakthrough innovations in software, robotics, and materials science, AREVO is uniquely qualified to offer this innovative MaaS platform, through its ability to release the true potential of carbon fibre and provide composite parts with unprecedented low cost, true production-scale for 3D-printed goods, and reduced design cycles for a wide range of products.
Hemant Bheda, Co-Founder and Chairman of AREVO, said: “At JEC World we are looking forward to speaking with customers requiring innovative composite parts made with the MaaS process in consumer, industrial and aerospace industries. We are also seeking partners to expand our MaaS service worldwide … Our MaaS infrastructure significantly improves the time-to-market and ROI in the development and production of new micromobility vehicles, sporting goods, eVTOLs, commercial drones and satellites.”
AREVO will exhibit unique 3D-printed composite parts, including the world’s first 3D-printed composite “e-Moto” – a micromobility cross between an e-bike and an e-scooter; a custom tennis racquet engineered for performance; and an aircraft landing gear door bracket optimised with generative design.
AREVO has collaborated with industrial giants AGC, Airbus and Sumitomo, who have invested in the Silicon Valley-based company.
