World-class facility includes industry's
largest format, most advanced capabilities
MARGATE,
Fla., Feb. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ATI Inc.
(NYSE: ATI) celebrated the commissioning of its world-class
Additive Manufacturing Products facility, bringing on-line the most
advanced large-format, metal additive manufacturing capabilities in
the industry. The vertically integrated greenfield build includes
design, printing, heat treating, machining and inspection
capabilities under one roof.
"Layer by layer, additive manufacturing gives us the ability to
produce high-performance, highly complex components for our
customers – faster, with less waste," said Kimberly A. Fields, ATI President and CEO,
commemorating the grand opening with customers, community
supporters and industry leaders. The new operations – built upon
nearly a decade of additive manufacturing expertise – is capable of
printing the tallest parts in the western world: up to 1.5 meters
in geometries previously not possible.
"ATI is a metallurgical leader, developing new alloy powder
materials specifically for additive manufacturing. In this new
facility, we've brought our materials science and forging expertise
together with additive manufacturing production acumen, delivering
high-quality production at scale," said Fields. "From design to
finished product, we've formed a powerhouse that solves our
customers' most difficult challenges for the most demanding
markets—aerospace, defense and space."
Bechtel Plant Machinery Inc. (BPMI) awarded ATI its first
contract to be produced at the new facility, for highly engineered
part solutions in support of the U.S. Naval Nuclear Propulsion
Program.
Along with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, grand opening attendees
toured the 132,000-square-foot facility to see the advanced
manufacturing operations in action, including laser powder bed
fusion printing. Additive Manufacturing Products has implemented a
comprehensive quality system that meets the standards of both ISO
9001 and AS9100D. The investment, announced in late 2023, is
included in the company's existing capital expenditure
guidance.
