Frequently Asked Questions
Which energy sector parts are a good fit for WAAM?
WAAM is highly effective for producing large, complex components such as pressure vessels, valve bodies, subsea manifolds, and offshore wind nodes. By bypassing traditional tooling, these critical parts can be manufactured on-demand to meet stringent operational demands. Explore our energy sector use cases →
Is WAAM suitable for the hydrogen and energy transition supply chain?
WAAM is highly suited for the energy transition, allowing companies to efficiently print components using hydrogen-compatible alloys. It enables organizations to bring production in-house and cost-effectively manufacture the low volumes of specialized parts needed for emerging clean energy infrastructure. Explore WAAM machine pricing →
Does WAAM meet API, PED and ASME standards for oil and gas use?
Yes, WAAM is capable of meeting strict regulatory frameworks within the oil and gas industry. Components can be produced and qualified according to rigorous standards, including PED and ASME Section II and IX, B31.3, and API 6A. Learn more about materials and certification →
Can WAAM replace long-lead forgings for offshore projects?
Absolutely. While traditional forgings for offshore projects can suffer from severe lead times of 10 to 18 months, WAAM can produce heavy, near-net-shape parts in just a matter of weeks. This rapid production cycle dramatically reduces project delays and secures vulnerable supply chains. Compare WAAM vs. casting and forging →
Which alloys are available for energy sector WAAM parts?
The WAAM process supports a variety of high-performance, corrosion-resistant materials demanded by the energy sector. Commonly printed alloys include duplex, super duplex, Inconel 625 and 718, and nickel-aluminium bronze. View the full list of WAAM-compatible materials →
