AddUp and CEA aim to accelerate the use of metal additive manufacturing across the energy sector. For this reason, they launch Famergie (Fabrication additive métallique pour l’énergie – additive manufacturing for energy), a platform that will establish an ecosystem for all projects in this sector of activity.
For Florence Lambert, the director of the research centre, the launch of this platform will support the development of new manufacturing processes. Through this ecosystem, we will witness the production of “components that afford extraordinary performance, reducing the amount of materials used to the minimum, and thus helping the energy component sector to change.”
As a reminder, the energy sector also presents its own challenges. The reduction of capital expenditure across a variety of sectors and the capacity to simplify and speed up the supply chain are some of them.
The strengths of every stakeholder
The CEA will bring its expertise in HSE assessment, powder metallurgy, post‐processing, advanced characterization and nondestructive testing whereas AddUp will bring its metal AM, especially its laser powder bed fusion machine (FormUp350).
“We are delighted to work with the CEA in setting up the Famergie platform. It will provide the energy industry with a huge range of services, including training, design, redesign and technical-economic validation, producing prototypes in order to demonstrate proof of concept, as well as support for industrialization“, stated Vincent Ferreiro, Chairman of Addup.
