Metal Recovery

Reconstruct, repair or re-manufacture metallic spare parts

Metal parts often fail not because they can't be made, but because of missing data, low volumes or uneconomical classical supply chains.

Metal Recovery combines analysis, additive metal manufacturing, welding, machining and inspection into a technical spare-part process.

Additive metal manufacturing here means: material is built up only where it is needed. The relevant functional surfaces are then produced by machining and inspection.

Suitable for

  • Cast replacement parts
  • Flanges
  • Housings
  • Brackets
  • Consoles
  • Bearing zones
  • Valve and fitting parts
  • Worn functional surfaces
  • Single parts from machinery and assets
  • Parts with long lead times
  • Obsolete metal components

Possible manufacturing routes

  • Wire-DED: wire-based metal deposition for larger structures
  • Laser/wire deposition for local material zones
  • Metal 3D printing for complex geometries
  • Welding and cladding
  • CNC machining
  • Surface finishing
  • Heat treatment, if required
  • Dimensional and material inspection

Result

  • available metal replacement part
  • defined material
  • defined functional surfaces
  • documented manufacturing route
  • inspectable quality
  • repeatability for later demand

Typical application

A metal part is no longer available, but the existing legacy part still shows installation points, functional surfaces and base geometry.

We reconstruct the intended technical geometry, choose the suitable material and select the economically fitting manufacturing route.

Clear limit

Metal Recovery does not replace technical release by claims. For pressure-bearing, safety-relevant or approval-bound parts, the proof path is defined before manufacturing.
