MX3D offers WAAM-printed bronze ship propellers without patterns, with DNV AMC3 backing
MX3D prints custom ship propellers in nickel aluminum bronze with wire arc additive manufacturing, skipping the casting pattern and mold. A five-blade, 200 kg propeller took 80 hours, and the company says it is the first WAAM facility certified to DNV AMC3. The route targets one-offs, urgent replacements and repairs.
