WHAT WE DO DIRECTED ENERGY DEPOSITION DED is an Additive Manufacturing process where focused thermal energy is used to fuse materials by melting them as they are deposited. BeAM's industrial solutions typically utilize a deposition nozzle mounted on the Z-axis of a DED dedicated CNC machine. This allows continuous 5 axis of freedom to build/repair components layer by layer without the need for support structures. Utilizing traditional numerical controls and using ISO G-code gives our customers tools that their skilled workforce is already accustomed to.

DIRECTED ENERGY DEPOSITION DED (DMD, LMD) Developed in the 1970s (as Cladding) Industrialized in the 2000s Productionized in the 2020s BeAM’s DED process involves directing metallic powder into a laser beam. The powder converges at the focal point of the laser, creating a melt-pool which is laid down in a 5-axis configuration
