Follow the Metal 1.0 Journey

Experiencing true LPBF metal 3D printing in person makes all the difference. Reading specifications is essential, but witnessing the Metal 1.0 live and handling dense samples tells the full story. Come find our booth at these upcoming events to observe the machine printing live, examine our verified 316L and SS CX test samples, and discuss how compact LPBF can fit into your lab or workshop.

AM for Production

DateOct 7, 2026
LocationNetherlands

We brought one of our first production systems to the AM for Production event to showcase its mechanics in action. Running live dry-run print cycles directly on the exhibition floor, we demonstrated the precise coordination of the XY gantry, the recoater, and the dual-piston powder supply working seamlessly under continuous load.

LocationCongress Centrum (HCC), Hannover, Germany
StandEilenriedehalle 111

We brought the Metal 1.0 to one of the biggest Maker Faires in Europe. It was fantastic to show attendees how we’ve packaged industrial-grade additive manufacturing into a footprint designed for the serious DIY engineer and local workshop. We ran live printing continuously throughout the event, and attendees got hands-on testing the mechanical strength of our parts directly in a vice.
