DP Technology, in conjunction with Grenoble University, has developed a commercial version of its Esprit CAM solution that supports additive direct energy deposition (DED) cycles. Esprit’s additive capabilities are the product of the team’s experience in toolpath generation, and includes the same user interface that users expect from the software. The product release includes three-axis, four-axis and five-axis DED support. Combined with the subtractive processes and embedded into a single software, the solution is designed to bring a full spectrum of support to hybrid manufacturing.
Esprit’s additive DED cycles include additive simulation and verification, as well as global support from the company’s technical teams.
DP Technology validated its postprocessor through collaboration with major machine manufacturers and educational institutions, including Grenoble University, a leading research institution on additive DED technology.
