Just like Colibrium Additive, ADDiTEC has become one of the rare manufacturers to offer three different metal AM technologies. Headquartered in the USA, the company has introduced a Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) 3D printer at this year’s RAPID+TCT. The 3D printer completes a portfolio that already includes Directed Energy Deposition (DED) and Liquid Metal Jetting (LMJ) solutions.
“Our new LPBF platform, Fusion S, brings high-precision, production-grade metal 3D printing to the forefront of our offering,” said Brian Matthews, CEO of ADDiTEC. “This launch marks a major milestone in our mission to deliver a full-spectrum metal AM portfolio that addresses the most demanding use cases—from aerospace and defense to medical and energy. RAPID is the perfect venue to showcase this evolution.”
The Fusion S system was developed through a strategic collaboration, merging a proven LPBF foundation with exceptional engineering and commercialization expertise. The result is a fully optimized platform that delivers:
- High-resolution printing for complex geometries and fine features
- Compact footprint with integrated powder handling and post-processing capabilities
- Industrial-grade performance in a user-friendly, turnkey package
- Unique closed powder architecture to enable operation without direct contact with metal powder
- Optimized print parameters for titanium, stainless steel, cobalt chrome, and other advanced alloys
ADDiTEC’s Fusion S system is ideal for applications in aerospace, defense, medical, energy, and tooling industries. By offering three complementary technologies—DED, LMJ, and LPBF—ADDiTEC enables customers to choose the right process for the right job, with seamless support from a single trusted partner.
