For over 40 years, zero defects hasn’t been an ambition at Kores India Limited, it’s been the standard.

Specialising in safety-critical brake and suspension components for the automotive industry, precision is absolutely non-negotiable. With highly complex cast parts and customers across Europe and the US, the team needed a reliable way to capture fast, accurate measurement data even on challenging, uneven surfaces.

That’s where the Handsonmetrology T-SCAN hawk 2 comes in. It allows Kores to inspect intricate components with confidence, helping ensure every part meets the strict requirements of their global automotive partners.

Industrial component repair using Wire Laser Metal Deposition 🔧

📅 17th June 2026
⏰ 4:00 PM BST

Hosted by Meltio, this technical webinar explores how Wire Laser Metal Deposition (WLMD) is being applied to real-world industrial repair and maintenance challenges.

Rather than replacing high-value components, many manufacturers are now extending part life through advanced repair strategies - reducing downtime and cutting replacement costs.

In this session, you’ll explore:
• WLMD technology and how it enables reliable metal repair
• Cladding and restoration workflows in industrial environments
• Real production use cases across different sectors
• Live Q&A

Our latest case study with Rheinmetall BAE Systems Land (RBSL) highlights how the team utilised the miniFactory Ignite to manufacture ducting components for the Challenger 3 programme.

With strict space constraints, evolving vehicle architecture, and increasing pressure for faster production turnaround, traditional manufacturing methods were no longer the right fit for the application.

To overcome these challenges, Rheinmetall turned to high-temperature FFF additive manufacturing - bringing production in-house to support greater flexibility, faster iteration, and a more agile manufacturing process.

The case study explores why the miniFactory.fi - 3D printer Ignite was selected, how additive manufacturing supported the programme, and what this means for the future of AM within defence manufacturing.

Aircraft dent inspection in MRO shouldn’t be a bottleneck - but manual methods still slow teams down.

From FOD and hail damage to bird strikes, even small dents must be accurately measured and documented to maintain airworthiness. When dozens - or even hundreds - of dents are involved, inspection time quickly adds up.

SHINING 3D's FreeScan Omni changes that.

With a fully digital workflow, teams can scan entire areas in minutes, automatically detect and measure dents, and generate clear 3D reports - directly at the aircraft, with no complex setup.

Faster inspections, improved accuracy, and better traceability - all critical when every minute of downtime counts.

A precision locking pin, digitally captured using the EinScan Rigil from SHINING 3D

Using Marker-Free Laser mode (38 crossed lines & 7 parallel lines) at 0.5mm resolution, the scan accurately recorded a component measuring 115mm in length and 170mm in height - capturing key surface and geometric details with clarity.

This type of scan is ideal for reverse engineering, maintenance workflows, and inspection where dependable data capture matters.

How does Meltio technology actually work?

In this video, we break down the core principles behind Meltio’s wire-laser metal 3D printing system.

Using nine blue lasers and wire feedstock, Meltio builds fully dense metal parts layer by layer directly onto a build surface. The result is a highly efficient process that enables near-net-shape manufacturing with reduced lead times and minimal material waste.

Cost, reliability, and lead time are some of the biggest challenges in modern manufacturing.

miniFactory.fi - 3D printer addresses all three by enabling in-house production of high-performance polymer parts with tightly controlled, repeatable processes.

With internal monitoring and validated production workflows, manufacturers can ensure consistent output - whether producing a single component or a full production run.

The result is reduced dependency on external suppliers, faster turnaround times, and more predictable manufacturing costs.

It’s a practical shift toward more efficient, resilient production.

Hybrid manufacturing has taken a significant step forward.

Phillips Corporation has become the first Meltio partner worldwide to integrate the Meltio Engine Blue into a Haas TM-1r CNC machine.

This hybrid configuration brings together additive and subtractive manufacturing within a single workflow - giving defence and industrial manufacturers greater flexibility and control.

What this enables in practice:
• Print near-net-shape metal components
• Machine to final tolerances in the same set-up
• Reduce material waste
• Shorten production lead times
• Strengthen supply chain resilience

For organisations operating in demanding environments, hybrid manufacturing offers a more efficient way to produce and repair complex metal parts.

From family workshop to series production – all thanks to 3D printing! 🏭

Qvantum’s factory in Nyíregyháza has transformed from a small family workshop into a large-scale European production hub for residential heat pumps. And 3D printing has been at the heart of this journey.

UltiMaker 3D printers – including the S5, S7 Pro Bundle, and S6 – have allowed the team to design, test, and produce tools, jigs, and prototypes faster, safer, and more cost-effectively than ever. From ABS to Tough PLA and even composites like PET CF and Nylon CF, there’s virtually no part of the production process that hasn’t benefited from additive manufacturing.

Thanks to UltiMaker’s reliability, industrial certifications, and the team’s expertise, Qvantum is now ready to scale series production efficiently – and 3D printing will continue to play a key role.
