Edging tool for bending machine<\/span><\/h2><\/div>

In 2011 BAM GmbH was founded by the current managing director Marco Bauer in Weiden in the Oberpfalz. Starting as a classic contract manufacturer with eight employees, it is now a multi-award-winning digital company.<\/span><\/p>\n

BAM GmbH offers precision manufacturing, special machine construction and digital services. In the field of additive manufacturing, BAM relies on the Metal X metal 3D printer system and the Mark Two carbon fiber 3D printer from Markforged, among other technologies.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

The Challenge<\/span><\/h2><\/div>

Many possible applications in the service sector<\/strong><\/span>
\nBAM GmbH offers a wide range of products for the manufacture of metal and plastic components of the highest quality and with the narrowest tolerances for numerous different industries. For these applications, additive manufacturing is the best choice, especially in the field of weight optimisation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Up to now, most parts have been manufactured by machining, which is complex and cost-intensive, especially in prototyping. Managing Director Marco Bauer also prints individual parts for his own state-of-the-art machinery.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Implementation<\/span><\/h2><\/div>

Easy entry into Additive Manufacturing due to the closed overall system<\/span><\/strong>
\nWhile searching for a metal 3D printer, founder and managing director Marco Bauer got to know the production technology of Markforged. He was particularly convinced by the easy handling of the material change by simply replacing the material rolls.<\/span><\/p>\n

Markforged\u2018s all-in-one system connects all components with each other: from the cloud-based software to the 3D printer and the post-process (washing and sintering). This gives a quick and easy overview of the complete process chain. The individual components are matched to each part accordingly, so that the best possible result can be achieved from the very first print! Thanks to the cloud-based software, print jobs can even be started conveniently from on the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Solution<\/span><\/h2><\/div>

Design freedom for component optimization<\/strong><\/span>
\nDue to the additive manufacturing there are almost no restrictions in the geometric complexity of a component. This is advantageous for making components lighter and optimizing them for their intended use.<\/span><\/p>\n

By processing continuous fibres, the components are given more performance in terms of strength with an excellent surface quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
