XEROX® ELEM™ ADDITIVE AND U.S NAVY DEPLOY FIRST METAL 3D PRINTER AT SEA


XEROX® ELEMX™3D METAL PRINTER INSTALLED ON USS ESSEX (LHD 2) AND AT-SEA TRIALS
HAVE BEGUN IN PACIFIC RIM

Jul 18, 2022 — Research and Development
Norwalk, Conn. —  

Xerox® Elem™ Additive Solutions today announced that an ElemX liquid metal
printer was recently installed on board USS Essex (LHD 2), making it the first
metal additive manufacturing machine deployed on a U.S. Naval vessel.

The ElemX was placed on the ship earlier this month in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii,
with at-sea trials beginning immediately. The installation is the latest step in
the U.S. Navy’s strategy of using additive manufacturing (AM) to increase
operational readiness for the fleet. It also builds on the relationship between
the U.S. Navy and Xerox Elem Additive that began with the Naval Postgraduate
School in Monterey, California receiving the first-ever installation of the
ElemX in 2020.

“The military supply chain is among the most complex in the world and putting
the ElemX on USS Essex means that sailors can now bypass that complexity and
print parts when and where they need them,” said Tali Rosman, GM of Elem
Additive. “We are proud to continue our partnership with the Navy to help them
advance their additive manufacturing capabilities and execute their long-term
vision.”

The ElemX leverages Xerox’s liquid metal AM technology that uses standard
aluminum wire. Unlike other metal 3D printing technologies, there are no
hazardous metal powders with ElemX and no need for special facility
modifications or personal protective equipment to operate the machine. The
printer also requires minimal post-processing and therefore provides a faster
time-to-part. This ability to produce reliable replacement parts on-demand
reduces the dependency on complex global supply chains for deployed forces.

To withstand various sea states and environmental challenges that U.S. naval
warships encounter, the ElemX was installed in an industrial shipping container
to ruggedize it. Currently at sea on board USS Essex, trials have already begun
to establish operational guidelines and technical feasibility studies to
determine applications and use cases. A team on board USS Essex will design and
print shipboard items and provide feedback to NPS and Commander, Naval Surface
Force Pacific (COMNAVSURPAC).

The ElemX 3D printer was commercially introduced in February 2021, and since
then, Elem Additive Solutions has expanded operations, including opening an
Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence in Cary, North Carolina. The ElemX
is a safer and simpler metal 3D printer, addressing supply chain resiliency for
transportation, aerospace, defense and industrial manufacturing. Engineered to
bring simplicity to the supply chain process, ElemX is the ideal option for
spares, repairs and low-volume production parts.

This release does not imply endorsement of Xerox or its products by the Naval
Postgraduate School, the Department of the Navy, or the Department of Defense.
