IMTS Unveiling – JMT launches Fully Integrated / Hybrid 3D Metal

At IMTS 2024 in Chicago, Pegasus Manufacturing debuted its revolutionary fully integrated hybrid 3D metal system, combining precision CNC milling with Meltio wire-laser metal-deposition technology. This innovative platform empowers users to seamlessly deposit metal layers, mill, and repeat, enabling creation of complex internal features and intricate geometries—once nearly impossible or cost-prohibitive—while maintaining aerospace-grade accuracy.

By harnessing Meltio’s directed-energy-deposition technology, Pegasus achieves 100 % material efficiency, feeding clean wire stock into the build process and finishing critical surfaces in the same single setup. The result: unparalleled additive-subtractive workflows, dramatic reductions in lead time, minimized scrap, and no need for secondary setups. The system is a game-changer for manufacturers in aerospace, defense, medical, and high-performance industries—offering additive freedom and subtractive precision without expanding their shop footprint.

Let’s Bring It Back: Reviving America’s CNC Legacy

Jupiter Machine Tool isn’t just building machines—we’re rebuilding a legacy. Born in the same state where the CNC machine was invented, we’ve returned to Illinois with a mission: to reignite American manufacturing at its roots. As part of the reshoring movement, we believe the power to create belongs in every home, school, and workshop.

This is more than business—it’s a call to rebuild our industrial birthright.

Watch the video. Share the mission. Let’s bring it back.
