RusselSmith’s Post

We’re making headway in West Africa with our AM partner ⚡ Today, we signed a letter of intent with our partner in Nigeria, RusselSmith, to jointly develop their additive manufacturing activities in West Africa. RusselSmith has already made significant strides into providing regional industries with additive manufacturing. With the signed letter of intent, we are bolstering their efforts. With this deeper partnership, we aim to jointly: ☑ Boost local industries with innovative AM applications    ☑ Improve access to high-quality additively manufactured parts    ☑ Build visibility for AM solutions in the region    ☑ Strengthen RusselSmith’s expertise with consultancy and training And as part of this collaboration, RusselSmith will invest in a BLT-S400 system, helping to drive industrial innovation and competitiveness. Signing the document at Formnext today was Kayode A., RusselSmith, and Gary Ding, BLT Europe, in the presence of BLT founder Dr Xue. #3dprinting #additivemanufacturing #innovation #expansion

I visited the Alutec Exhibition in Düsseldorf, to promote our HIP Densal Technology. Densification Aluminium (Densal): Bodycote offers Hot Isostatic Pressing, a casting densification service specifically for aluminium to remove porosity and increase the performance of aluminium alloys. By removing this porosity, Densal® improves the performance of aluminium castings which are subjected to high dynamic loads, such as are seen in performance-critical applications. What does Densal® deliver? - Increased mechanical strength - Longer fatigue life - Uniform mechanical properties - Pore-free machined surfaces - Reduced property scatter - Improved x-ray inspection acceptance
