Materialise CO-AM Software Platform
Plan, control, and optimize every step of your AM operations
CO-AM is the secure, cloud-based software platform that scales all your additive manufacturing (AM) workflows. Connect and maximize ROI with our pre-print, workflow, quality control, and third-party app products.
Why is CO-AM the software platform to scale AM?
Streamline orders and factory operations
Improve collaboration by centralizing AM workflows and consolidating requests. Plus, complete work orders with a native additive MES to ensure quality specs and deadlines are met.
Optimize and automate repetitive tasks
Future-proof your AM operations with best-in-class products and third-party apps to optimize and automate tasks, including build prep, nesting, to labeling processes with ease.
Control quality and repeatability
Control your entire AM process — from enhancing build processors to configuring fixed workflows. With a unified data fabric, gain a 360° view of your production data across connected facilities.
Turn AM data into actionable insights
Improve real-time decision-making with data collected from the shop floor, machine sensors, and images for quality assurance. Optimize workflows and reduce costs with reports and alerts.
Ensure on-time delivery
Simplify 3D printing processes to reduce lead times. Gain visibility across your end-to-end AM operations for real-time troubleshooting and ensure customer satisfaction.
Secure IP and demonstrate compliance
Encrypt IP and comply with ITAR-regulations. Manage user access, enable traceability, and achieve last-mile security by sending technical data packages (TDPs) to 3D printers.
Optimize and scale AM operations with CO-AM
AM design and printability
Optimize design, data and build preparation, automate repetitive tasks, and optimize job files before printing.
AM Business Workflows
Streamline end-to-end AM workflows while automating tasks with connected third-party software and hardware. All the while ensuring last-mile security.
Process monitoring and control
Scale up R&D parameter development and reduce costs with early scrap detection by leveraging layer images and sensor data from your machines.
