Technology — Precixion

The PA-300 laser powder bed fusion system, build chamber open

PA Series

What is in the machine.

The PA Series combines our own laser optics, an AI-based control layer, and a qualification framework that records and assesses what happened during each build.

Laser system	Proprietary SSLM™
Process control	In-situ monitoring with real-time correction
Qualification	PAQ reporting framework
Materials	Magnesium, tungsten, copper and conventional alloys
Origin	Designed and built in the U.S.

How it works

Four parts of the system.

Optics

SSLM™ laser system

Our laser beam system is designed to give close control of the melt pool, so each layer is deposited consistently. The company reports build speeds substantially faster than conventional systems using this approach; independent verification is in progress.

Control

In-process monitoring and correction

The machine observes each layer as it is built and adjusts for deviations during the build rather than reporting them afterwards. The control architecture was developed in collaboration with NVIDIA and supports real-time process optimisation and predictive quality assessment.

Qualification

PAQ

Precixion Qualification aggregates data from our control (PAC), analysis (PIA) and prediction (PIP) systems into a structured report on the build. The intention is to characterise the actual part rather than infer from witness coupons, since geometry and size affect the outcome.

Materials

Reactive and hard-to-process alloys

The controlled process allows printing of magnesium, a lightweight but highly reactive metal that has been difficult to manufacture additively, as well as tungsten and copper. This is a deliberate area of focus and a route to domestic supply of components that are otherwise hard to source.
