Case Study

Stretcher Loading System

From Concept to Series Production – Efficient, Safe, Deployable Challenge: enable fast and simple loading of injured personnel into ambulance modules for the Unimog.
In 2020, HEGGEMANN developed, manufactured and tested a fully automated stretcher loading system – operable by a single person at the push of a button.

Case Study: WAAM

WAAM Technology in Defense

Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing for Rapid Deployment

Scenario: In crisis zones or extreme environments, supply chains often collapse. Critical spare parts cannot be delivered on time. WAAM technology enables the local production of mission-essential components directly at the place of use.

Close-up of a metal component produced with Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) at HEGGEMANN — layer-built structure showcasing advanced additive technology for defense applications.

Objectives of WAAM deployment in Defense:

Mobile, container-based WAAM spare part production for military vehicles and systems

Maximum flexibility and speed through digital processes

Avoidance of obsolescence with “print-on-demand” from standardised material portfolio

Reduced physical stockpiles by production on demand
