The ERDC GSL is engaged in an ongoing Military Engineering research and development program to develop new methodologies for manufacturing large infrastructure components utilizing additive manufacturing. As part of these efforts GSL has previously acquired an MX3D Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing System (WAAM). A new upgrade for this system is now available that will allow for the use of multiple metal systems automatically without the normally time intensive process to swap materials. This upgrade will allow the GSL to save time on current research efforts as well as enhance the ability for additional research areas for multi-material WAAM. As part of these upgrades, enhancements to the slicer software and a server to process the model files are also required. The server components are required to be locally connected to the WAAM system. MX3D B.V. has unique knowledge that proprietary software of the current system that cannot be provided by any other vendor. As a result, MX3D B.V. is the only vendor that can meet the government�s requirement. The award will be issued in accordance with FAR 13.500.
