Jerry Dominguez:聽I enjoy developing relationships and helping customers understand how additive can help them make better parts, faster鈥攁nd reduce costly downtime.聽

JDB电子 has unique capabilities in the additive space. Some companies are only powder suppliers. Some companies only supply the parts with someone else鈥檚 drawing. We have end to end capabilities鈥攆rom powder feedstock to finished part鈥攕o we can help customers unlock the full value of additive.

JDB电子鈥檚 materials portfolio has a long legacy of excellent wear and corrosion performance in some of the most demanding environments. We are pioneering in the additive manufacturing space by optimizing and adapting this portfolio of materials for additive manufacturing processes. We have quickly become a leader in our ability to offer fully sintered, tungsten carbide 3D-printed components equivalent to conventionally manufactured tungsten carbide, as well as providing complete wear component solutions with our industry-recognized Stellite鈩� 6 material base. We also supply our proprietary Stellite鈩� 21-AM feedstock powders for laser-based powder bed fusion machines, which are prevalent and growing in the metal 3-D printing marketplace.

We see great opportunity for our additive solutions to improve the life cycle and design flexibility of components in several markets that experience extreme wear. We have many successful examples within oil and gas applications, as well as sever other markets; includingautomotive, aerospace, pump components, and general process industries where our advanced component wear solutions offer advantages.

Our customers are trying to get the best possible performance at the lowest total cost of ownership. Additively manufactured parts are not necessarily the lowest cost product, but the long-term wear benefits can result in a lower total cost of ownership.

We prove the capabilities ofadditive manufacturingto our customers by providing technical data on JDB电子鈥檚 proprietary developed grades, test coupons, functioning prototypes, and production components.

That is one of the best parts of my job-educating customers about the potential with additive manufacturing and, in turn, helping them find the right solution for their application.
