January 29: Exploring Meltio’s Wire LMD Technology

Spanish multinational Meltio is holding a webinar at 11 am EST on Wednesday, January 29th, called “DED-icated to Innovation,” that explores its wire LMD technology. Wire-Laser Metal Deposition (Wire LMD) is a form of Directed Energy Deposition (DED), which works by precisely stacking inexpensive wire weld beads on top of one another once introduced into the melt pool. Attendees will learn why Meltio uses wire, how the process works, the solution’s dual wire and quad wire capabilities, and more. Plus, they’ll have a chance to ask Meltio’s technical support team their questions about wire LMD.

“Join us for an engaging webinar where we explore Meltio’s Wire LMD Technology, focusing on the dual wire and quad wire capabilities.”
