“With this new facility, we are excited to continue our leadership in the development of the metal AM supply chain for OEMs in precision industries,” said Brian Neff, Sintavia’s Chairman and CEO. “We will use this additional space not only to grow our existing competencies in laser and electron beam melting, but also to industrialize new technologies such as metal binder jet manufacturing.”

In addition to the company’s current advanced manufacturing equipment and material laboratory, the new facility will house over $20mm of new machinery, including larger AM equipment, an automated powder handling system, an uninterruptable power supply, an inert gas farm, and an enhanced post-processing footprint. The expansion is anticipated to bring more than 135 new jobs for skilled employees and support staff to South Florida.

“The key to Sintavia’s success over the past few years has been our vertically integrated approach to metal AM,” said Doug Hedges, Sintavia’s President and COO. “Our ability to rapidly qualify machines and processes—through the use of our on-site laboratories, scanning, and post-processing equipment—demonstrates meaningful value to our customers. This same approach will continue on a larger scale with our new production facility.”

Sintavia is the first independent manufacturer of its kind to offer a vertically integrated, end-to-end metal AM production process. Beginning with an accredited in-house laboratory to verify powder quality, to post-processing technology and non-destructive testing of final components, Sintavia is uniquely positioned to supply serially manufactured components with guaranteed quality and repeatability as part of the OEM supply chain.
