MELD™ next won first-place in the Robotics/Automation/Manufacturing category of the Society of Automotive Engineers’ (SAE) Create the Future Design Contest. MELD™ was selected from this sizeable group of established industry leaders to receive the 2018 RAPID + TCT Innovation Award, a recognition of the most innovative new technology with industry-changing potential. MELD Manufacturing Corporation launched in 2018 and its immediate relevance to the manufacturing community was made evident at the 2018 North American RAPID + TCT conference and exhibition, an event boasting more than 6,000 visitors and 300 exhibitors from the additive manufacturing community. “We know from the overwhelming response to MELD™ that there is a huge gap in existing technologies to fill the needs of manufacturers in diverse industries.” ![]() “We are intent on revolutionizing advanced manufacturing and are honored for MELD™ to be recognized as the most disruptive technology in the world,” stated MELD Manufacturing Corporation CEO Nanci Hardwick. It is also the first system of its kind for building large-scale 3D parts. ![]() Since MELD™ is highly scalable it is able to make much larger parts than competitive processes. This freedom offers the ability to rethink how particular materials are used for various applications and in what combinations. No melting also means users have the potential to work with unweldable materials. MELD™ is a no-melt process for metal, offering stronger, better parts. Traditional methods melt materials, introducing weaknesses. MELD™, which was named an R&D 100 finalist in August, is a revolution for additive manufacturing and repair of metals. MELD™ was selected as the single most disruptive new technology and received a special Market Disruptor award. ![]() CHRISTIANSBURG, VA – MELD Manufacturing Corporation’s patented MELD™ technology has earned a spot in the 2018 R&D 100 Awards, an international competition that recognizes the 100 most exceptional innovations in science and technology from the past year.
