Aidro took another step in the Additive Manufacturing qualification with the extension of DNV AM facility certificate to include Nickel Alloy 718.
Aidro Team has achieved important milestones:
– 3 materials qualified: Nickel Alloy 718, stainless steel 316L, stainless steel 17-4 P
– parts qualification for highest criticality level AMC3 of DNV’s AM manufacturer certification for laser powder bed fusion technology
– 1st company to earn DNV’s AM manufacturer certification for binder jetting technology
The certification is in accordance with the DNV service specification DNVG-SE-0568, Module B – Qualification of manufacturers, and aligned with best practices outlined in DNV-ST-B203.
Dr. Sastry Y Kandukuri, Ph.D., Global Practice Lead – Additive Manufacturing, DNV – said:
“Congratulations to Aidro on extending its DNV-ST-B203 facility qualification to include AM Nickel Alloy Type 718 at AMC 2 level, further expanding its list of qualified materials. Processing Inconel 718 via AM requires advanced technical expertise to optimize printing parameters and heat treatment processes. Aidro’s this successful achievement reflects its ability to overcome complex material processing challenges while meeting DNV and end user’s stringent quality standards.
With this new milestone, Aidro further strengthens its position as a trusted supplier of components made with high-criticality AM materials—enabling OEMs and end users to confidently adopt high-performance AM components for demanding oil & gas applications. I am glad that we could support their journey in advancing additive manufacturing for the energy sector”
