Spartacus3D invests in real-time & in-process quality assurance

Spartacus3D, a startup funded by Farinia Group and specializing in metal additive manufacturing, takes another step forward by equipping its 3D printers with PrintRite3D®, an in-situ quality assurance monitoring system developed by Sigma Labs Inc.

PrintRite3D® is an innovative set of tools for real-time analysis and monitoring of metal AM processes of the build on a layer by layer basis. The solution combines a set of sensors, SENSORPAK™ with the software modules INSPECT™, DEFORM™ and ANALYTICS™.

These sophisticated tools will allow Spartacus3D to strengthen its metallurgical expertise towards a complete and thorough understanding of the laser melting process. The startup will thus gain a competitive advantage by being able to improve its production quality while ensuring an excellent repeatability.

« We are thrilled to start this collaboration with the Sigma Labs team, with whom we share common vision and approach. By joining Sigma Labs’ Early Adopter Program (EAP) and integrating PrintRite3D® on our metal AM machines, Spartacus3D is the first French company to invest significantly in the field of real-time in-process quality control. This project is well-aligned with our strategy which is to offer solutions adapted to serial production, for industries requiring the most stringent quality standards, such as aerospace, defense and medical. », explains Charles de Forges, General Manager of Spartacus3D.
