Frankfurt, Germany—November 18, 2024—At Formnext 2024, 1000 Kelvin(Hall11.1, D39), a leader in AI-driven additive manufacturing (AM) solutions, is proud to announce that its flagship AI co-pilot, AMAIZE, has expanded far beyond toolpath automation to include nearly the entire metal laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) workflow. With AMAIZE 2.0, 1000 Kelvin continues to redefine the capabilities of additive manufacturing, making the 3D printing process more reliable, efficient, and scalable for manufacturers across industries.

Advancing Automation for Greater Efficiency
AMAIZE 2.0 now features a comprehensive suite of advanced automation tools designed to tackle some of the most persistent challenges in AM. These include:

• Printability Checker: Automatically validates and optimizes designs for AM, reducing redesign cycles by 40%.
• Cost Estimator: Delivers accurate, upfront cost estimations, improving quotation accuracy by 30%.
• Automated Support Structures: Incorporates physics-based build preparation to save up to 20% in material costs and enable non-experts toeasily implement successful print preparation workflows.
• Exposure Strategy Optimization: Ensures first-time-right prints with AI-driven parameters, cutting failure rates by 50%.

These enhancements allow manufacturers to unlock higher Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and increase yield by leveraging AI-powered insights for every step of the printing process.

“Our mission is to make additive manufacturing simpler, more accurate, and more predictable,” said Dr. Omar Fergani, PhD,Co-founder and CEO of 1000 Kelvin. “With AMAIZE 2.0, our customers can achieve consistent, first-time-right results with greater confidence and speed. We’re finally unlocking the true value of the 3D printing industry.”
