Additive Casting
Enable Manufacturing was awarded an Innovate UK grant towards the close of 2020 to research the development of a new manufacturing technique called additive Casting.
This project aimed to test this Additive Casting technology for manufacturing various parts of varying dimensions, metals, and quantities.
This project could therefore demonstrate the feasibility of Additive Casting across multiple markets and potential applications.
Four types of components were identified across various industries, which vary in size in terms of material, application, and size, showing the range and scope of the Additive casting process.
In this white paper, we will concentrate on the initial of the four components, a COVID-safe pencil, and outline the process and the outcomes.
