The Promise of 3D Printing
Where Additive Meets Real-World Manufacturing
Skuld bridges that gap by merging additive precision with foundry-grade performance, bringing advanced manufacturing out of the lab and into production.
Produce parts as needed at the point of use.
• Reduce inventory and transportation costs.
• Manufacture only what’s required—no large batch minimums.
• Respond quickly to demand with localized production.
Design Complexity
Unlock shapes and structures that machining can’t achieve.
• Consolidate multi-part assemblies into a single print.
• Lightweight using lattice and topology optimization.
• Rapidly iterate designs without costly retooling.
Limitations of Traditional Metal 3D Printing
Traditional metal printing can be slow and expensive.
• Cost is often at least 10x the cost of traditional manufacturing.
• Typical output is measured in pounds per hour, not tons.
• Additional machining can add up to 40% to total part cost.
Skuld’s Hybrid Approach (AMEC)
Combines polymer 3D printing with foundry-grade casting.
• Produces up to 165-lb steel or iron parts in as little as 12 hours.
• Eliminates tooling while maintaining foundry-grade properties.
• Uses safe, low-cost polymer printers instead of metal powder systems.
Proven Results
The best of both worlds—additive flexibility and casting strength.
• Delivers production-ready parts faster and more affordably.
• Maintains the metallurgical integrity required for demanding applications.
• Scales easily from prototype to high-volume production.
