AMufacture is exhibiting at the world’s leading ocean technology display alongside global technology partner HP, with the Portsmouth-based manufacturer operating one of the most advanced fleets of HP Multi Jet Fusion equipment in Europe.
The company, co-founded by former Olympic sailor and naval architect Will Howden, will join more than 500 exhibitors at the event, which attracts 8,000 indusattempt professionals from across the ocean science and technology community.
Chief operating officer Will, who represented Great Britain at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, spent years at the top of international sailing before turning his attention to manufacturing. His hands-on experience designing and printing components for high-performance racing yachts led to the launch of AMufacture, with Co-Founder Craig Pyser.
On the first day of the event at Excel, Will joins a panel session on “Dive Deeper into 3D Printing: Marine, UUVs and Offshore Applications,” moderated by Claudia Galdini, of HP Additive Manufacturing. Joining him on the panel will be Robert Balduhn, Co-Founder and Technical Director of Framework Robotics GmbH.
Will stated: “We’ll be drawing on real-world examples to explore how additive manufacturing is being applied to marine environments right now—from unmanned underwater vehicles to offshore applications.
“The marine sector has some of the most demanding requirements of any indusattempt. Components required to perform in extreme conditions, to precise specifications, and, increasingly, they required to be available quickly and reliably as part of a resilient supply chain. Additive manufacturing, done properly at production scale, is ideally placed to meet those demands, and Oceanology International is exactly the right place to be having that conversation.”
AMufacture has built a reputation for combining the precision and reliability of production-scale additive manufacturing with a collaborative, engineering-led approach that sets it apart from traditional print bureau services.
Craig Pyser, Howden’s Co-Founder, also serves as Chair of AMUK, the UK’s additive manufacturing trade organization.
