MetalWorm Additive Manufacturing Technologies Logo

Inspiration

The term “silkworm” served as the basis for the METALWORM brand. Similar to how silkworms weave silk and stack fibers, METALWORM weaves metal and stack molten metal. The trademark METALWORM has been associated with the additive manufacturing process in cutting-edge manufacturing technologies, which shortens the production time and minimizes the amount of raw materials.

The launch of a commercial Robotic WAAM System MetalWorm in Formnext 2022 and MetalWorm A.Ş. was founded in December 2022 as a spin-off company of Intecro Robotics.

METALWORM is a company that specializes in robotic additive manufacturing and has a holistic approach to problem-solving that includes advanced toolpath strategies, real-time process monitoring, adaptive process control, materials science, and a process parameter library suitable for different materials as well as various geometries. Utilizing this all-encompassing strategy, METALWORM is creating robotic additive manufacturing systems with possibilities for various research levels and commercial production.

Mission & Vision

METALWORM’s primary goal is to produce computer-controlled, high-volume robotic additive manufacturing systems that uses MIG/MAG and TIG welding techniques. These systems use additive manufacturing, which offers significant benefits in terms of process, cost, and manufacturing technology.

The system library contains the process parameters for producing steel, stainless steel, and aluminum alloys. The WAAM process parameters and accompanying mechanical characteristics for producing additional alloys including titanium, Inconel, and armor steel will also be available soon.

The METALWORM system development plan intends to shorten sector-based manufacturing times, particularly in the aerospace and many other industries. The system development roadmap includes a system design for the part manufacturer to achieve a compact solution to produce by uploading the CAD data of the component that will be produced into the system, and to reduce the intermediary processes.

With its own unique software, the METALWORM system can generate alternative toolpath strategies and robot codes for various geometries depending on the material used.

The METALWORM system is offered on the market in a variety of configurations with a range of monitoring and controlling options.
