Introduction
One of the ambitions to help ArcelorMittal reach a greener future is the orientation towards modern manufacturing techniques for maintenance. In Ghent, this is done through the ArcelorMittal Belgium spin-off company called Guaranteed BV, which focuses on large-scale Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). This technique can be used for both production and repair of large metal parts. Active since 2020, Guaranteed handles parts for both ArcelorMittal plants and third parties.
Using WAAM, Guaranteed creates value for its customers in the steel, oil & gas, maritime, transport, mining, and aerospace industries by lead time reduction, inventory optimization, lifetime extension, and process performance improvement. Our aim is to provide our customers with high-quality parts on both geometrical and metallurgical levels. Our high-quality manufacturing is enabled by data analysis and process monitoring to facilitate qualification and certification. Thanks to our industry-leading dimensional capabilities, Guaranteed is able to provide a fast, cost-competitive, and sustainable alternative to casting or forging. Our ambition is to grow in geographical and technological footprint, but never at the cost of the quality of our products and services.
