Enhancing Powder Atomization with Authentise Flows
With Flows, you can create a "smart" and optimised powder manufacturing process that will maximise resource efficiency and yield consistent and high-quality products. It will help establish robust methods to enable re-use powders, significantly reducing the cost of producing high-value parts in AM.
To get started, simply connect your ERP with APIs. Alternatively you can just upload a MSNav file to create a fully defined order, just like Carpenter Additive.
Benefits?
Powder Manufacture
Atomization's carbon footprint comes from energy use, not direct emissions. By improving atomization efficiency and using renewable energy, our clients aim to save over 284MWh annually in the UK.
Material Reuse
Reusing metal powders reduces waste and saves energy in the supply chain, potentially cutting embodied energy by over 80%.
Speed up Customer Acceptance
The 'Total Data Package' that covers the powder production and AM chain will improve user confidence, traceability and reliability of AM supply-chains.
End-to-end workflow with Authentise Flows
-
Track orders end-to-end
-
Define workflows, work instructions and suppliers
-
Simply visualize of all actions/events and materials history
-
Traveler QR codes are used to walk through work instructions and input reports can be generated
-
Custom automated reports can be downloaded with a single click or sent directly to customers
Take advantage of industrial engineering & manufacturing software forged in some of the industry’s most flexible & fast-moving environments
Authentise’s platform for industrial engineering and manufacturing provides a modular set of applications that allows customers to deploy what they require, on their terms, not ours. Commitment can scale or shrink according to need.
future innovations
Adopting novel high-throughput characterisation methods (DRM / PBS)
to assess the quality of powders as they are used and recycled, as well as that of the parts made using those powders.
Developing a Total Data Package (TDP) to collect, control and manage the digital footprint of powder produced. This will enable true end-to-end traceability and optimisation across the entire of the AM manufacturing process (powder manufacture-to final part).
