en.Wedoany.com Reported - Haddy, a US-based additive manufacturing company, is leveraging the Siemens Xcelerator digital business platform to expand localized additive manufacturing operations using circular materials in sectors such as furniture, marine, and defense.

Haddy focuses on localized production and additive manufacturing with circular materials. The company employs robotic additive manufacturing systems and uses recyclable, biodegradable materials designed for reuse. Products are designed from the outset to be recycled at the end of their lifecycle, processed back into raw materials for new production. Additionally, Haddy sources materials within the United States to support the domestic supply chain and reduce transportation needs.

Haddy operates through a network of digitally standardized micro-factories that use artificial intelligence and software tools to manage production across sites. By manufacturing near the point of product demand and employing shared digital systems, the company aims to reduce supply chain complexity and material waste.

To support this model, Haddy leverages Siemens Xcelerator to connect product design, manufacturing planning, and automation through digital workflows. Siemens Designcenter™ software is used to design large-format additive components and prepare them for robotic production. Teamcenter® software manages product data and configurations across sites. The Siemens SINUMERIK CNC control platform is used for motion control and shop-floor execution, integrating industrial robots. In Haddy's micro-factories, SINUMERIK controls robotic additive manufacturing systems using CNC-based path control and robot kinematics, including CEAD's large-format robotic extrusion platform.

With this rollout, Haddy is expanding its use of Siemens software as it scales its distributed production model. The company has added Simcenter™ Optistruct® software for product optimization and validation of large-scale components. It has also adopted NX™ X Manufacturing, a cloud-enabled manufacturing solution, for build strategy definition, CNC programming, simulation, and execution of large-format robotic additive manufacturing processes. Within the same toolset, Haddy also uses its subtractive CNC machining capabilities for CAM programming, simulation, and verification.

By using NX™ X Manufacturing, Haddy can support the production of everything from small parts to large structural components, such as marine parts. This cloud-based setup also helps the company scale software access with lower IT overhead and add functionality through value-based licensing tokens.

Haddy will also present its work in large-format additive manufacturing and digitally connected micro-factories at the Realize LIVE Americas conference in Detroit. During the event, CEO Jay Rodgers will deliver a keynote on AI-powered manufacturing.
