Sigma Labs Announces Launch of PrintRite3D DEFORM
Posted:
Sigma Labs, Inc., a developer of advanced, in process, non-destructive
quality inspection systems for metal-based additive manufacturing and other
advanced manufacturing technologies, today announced the launch of its
long-awaited DEFORM™ software – part of the Company's PrintRite3D®
family of quality assurance and process control products. Sigma Labs has
completed all in-house development and testing such that DEFORM™ is
now available for beta installations, including for customers within the
Company's Early Adopter Program (EAP). As previously announced, the first
fielded application of DEFORM™ will be with Honeywell Aerospace at its AM
development facility in Phoenix; this contract is part of a larger award
announced in May, 2015.

"We are very pleased to announce the launch of our DEFORM™ software,
which complements our existing INSPECT™ module and further enhances
our support of AM applications worldwide," said Mark Cola, President and
CEO of Sigma Labs. "While the product was delayed due to the need for
additional development and testing, we are excited to offer a unique tool that
uses proprietary, in-process algorithms to generate geometrical property
data for each layer of an AM build cycle. Our technology offers real-time,
layer-by-layer analysis to ensure compliance to production specifications.


"The launch of DEFORM™ – and its first installation, with Honeywell –
represents the achievement of a major milestone for the metal AM industry.
Sigma Labs is pleased to help pioneer the advancement of In-Process
Quality Assurance™ (IPQA®) in this rapidly-evolving space."

PrintRite3D® INSPECT™ and DEFORM™ software modules can now be
used in combination for embedded, stand-alone, or third party platform-
independent installations. DEFORM™ is expected to be delivered to
Honeywell in October and will be shipped to Sigma Labs' global EAP
participants as appropriate. DEFORM™ will also be showcased at upcoming
industry-leading events.

Sigma Labs' Early Adopter Program remains open to new entrants through
year-end. The program offers many benefits to users looking to obtain
objective evidence of compliance to design intent, conduct rapid
qualification, and create value through process control and optimization. The
EAP continues to draw strong interest from potential customers and is
expected to boost revenue in 2016.
