Specifically in the United States, JMT serves the automotive, defense, die and mold, and medical sectors.
“The creation of a global partnership of Jupiter Machine Tool, Meltio and UnionMT, located on three continents is extraordinary and exciting,” said Ray Whitehead, CEO of Jupiter Machine Tool. “Our tri-cultural synergy blended with diverse global technology results in the design and manufacture of 3 and 5-axis Additive-Subtractive CNC machine systems.”
This new collaboration with Meltio allows the introduction of the Meltio Engine CNC into a Jupiter Machine Tool portfolio to install a metal additive manufacturing offering in several industries.
“Meltio's main commitment with this new partnership with Jupiter Machine Tool offering to all types of industries in North America is the ability to manage the entire manufacturing process using our unique metal 3D printing technology consisting of a Meltio head integrated into a CNC machine and a safe environment, to just produce and repair parts,” said Emilio Juárez, sales director at Meltio.
Meltio produces high-performance, affordable offerings in metal additive manufacturing, utilizing wire-laser metal 3D printing technology with a focus on reliability, safety and innovation.
The Meltio Engine CNC Integration can produce complex metal parts from wire feedstock. The ability to produce parts from wire makes operation and material handling very clean, as well as ensuring 100% material efficiency.
