Expeditionary Manufacturing Unit

Print, post-process, and test metal parts on-site

Total on-site manufacturing

Our Expeditionary Manufacturing Unit (EMU) makes it possible to accelerate equipment repair and produce cast-equivalent parts faster than ever thought possible.
  • Containerized, ruggedized, and easy to deploy
  • Metal properties equal or superior to their cast counterparts
  • No extensive training or complex infrastructure required
Maximum part size ⌀0.9m x 0.7m/⌀35″ x 30″ (approx.)
Maximum part weight 40kg (88lbs)
Footprint 6.2m (20ft) x 2.6m (9ft) x 2.6m (9ft)
Weight 12500kg (27558lbs) (approx.)

A Powerful Combination

The EMU is comprised of two components: our XAPR printer and our APRCell post-processing and testing unit. Together, they give you everything you need to print, post-process, and test metal parts in the field or the factory—reducing your reliance on supply chains.

XAPR

Containerized, ruggedized, and easily deployed, XAPR enables you to effectively reduce disruption and downtime in the field.
• Manufacture metal on-site in remote, austere environments
• Produce lower-porosity, higher-density parts
• Reduce the need for extensive training

APRCELL

APRcell puts everything you need to heat treat, machine, and test APR parts in the field in a 20-foot container with twist locks. It includes a heat treatment furnace, a CNC three-axis mill, tooling, and testing equipment.
• Enable faster, lower-cost, more scalable production
• Transport with NATO in-service vehicles in a single 20-ft container
• Leverage the ideal complement to XSPEE3D in the field

Meet the Tech

TwinAPR automation software

A true breakthrough in metal AM, our unique TwinAPR software uses patented algorithms to automate tool path development, making it possible to realize the true potential of cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM).
  • A unique software that can simulate the process before you go to the printer
  • Processes 3D geometries automatically
  • Identifies unfeasible part features, and suggests modifications to the design
  • Generates print paths for either printing or coating
TwinAPR print preview features a full simulation of the print, enabling you to identify any anomalies before it goes to production—and helping deliver unique efficiencies in the additive industry.
  • Increase consistency
  • Improve reliability
  • Save significantly on cost and time

Phaser nozzle

Our ultra-high-energy nozzle uses compressed air to effectively deposit a wide range of hard phase materials four times faster than the speed of sound—at up to 800° Celsius (1472° Fahrenheit).
  • Harness the power of kinetic energy
  • Increase particle deformation
  • Reduce your reliance on Nitrogen and Helium
