South Korean company Creallo has put the industrial 3D printer EOS P3 NEXT from EOS into operation. The system is based on Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and was specifically designed for high-precision applications in the medical, electronics, and consumer goods industries. The introduction of this system marks a significant step for Creallo toward more efficient production and broader material utilization.
Compared to previous models, the EOS P3 NEXT offers improved material efficiency. According to the manufacturer, the recycling rate for PA12 is around 80 percent. This not only reduces material waste but also supports ESG goals and lowers per-part costs in small-batch production. In addition to PA12, biocompatible materials such as PA 1101, PA 2200, and PA 2201 can also be processed—enabling the production of medical items such as surgical guides or dental splints.
The system is also equipped to handle newly developed high-performance materials like EOS PA 2200 HighReuse and ALM PA 950 HD. This allows for the production of mechanically robust parts with specific properties such as heat resistance or flexibility—for example, gripper arms, eyeglass frames, or functional parts with enhanced requirements.
Seungkyun Kim, Country Manager of EOS Korea, stated, “We expect this partnership with Creallo will help spread EOS’s cutting-edge technologies across a wide range of industries. The EOS P3 NEXT combines high performance with sustainability, and we are excited to drive manufacturing innovation together.”
In parallel with the commissioning of the P3 NEXT, Creallo and EOS have signed a Memorandum of Understanding. The aim is to deepen technical collaboration through joint material testing, training, and events.
Heejung Kim, CEO of Creallo, said, “We’re delighted to enhance both our custom manufacturing and sustainable production capabilities through this collaboration with EOS. By leveraging biocompatible and food-safe materials, we look forward to expanding our customer base in medical, biotech, and food production. We will continue to lead the way in providing sustainable manufacturing solutions.”
