ODeCon, headquartered in Kaiserslautern, Germany, has expanded its adAM series of hybrid metal Additive Manufacturing machines with the introduction of the adAM-BASE. The new machine is a compact, entry-level model said to meet the needs of medium-sized enterprises. It is designed to unlock the potential of AM for a wide range of companies, including those in mechanical engineering, tool and mold making, dental technology, automotive, and aerospace sectors.

The adAM-BASE complements the company’s existing adAM-PRO (designed for large-scale production) and adAM-RD (aimed at research and development). It uses the same wire or powder feedstock in a laser-based Directed Energy Deposition (DED) AM process, combined with CNC machining. With an entry price of under €300,000, the adAM-BASE provides a relatively affordable option for those looking to venture into high-speed Additive Manufacturing.

Like all models in the adAM series, the adAM-BASE features a fast 5-axis CNC system that enables the processing of objects with nearly any structure. The hybrid machine can additively manufacture parts, post-process them, and coat them. It is also possible to do this with components produced externally.

A feature of the new machine is the ability to switch between different metal materials or alloy components during the build or coating process, adding significant value for applications with varying material requirements. Optionally, additional work heads can be installed, such as a laser cutting head, which further reduces lead times by enabling post-processing directly within the system.

The company has reported strong interest in the German market and international inquiries, notably from Sweden and Finland. Anyone interested in the adAM-BASE and other ODeCon innovations can experience live demonstrations at Formnext 2024, in Hall 11.0, Stand C31.
