The metal 3D printing market has made significant progress in recent years, particularly through the integration of large-format and multi-laser technologies. These developments have significantly expanded manufacturing capabilities and increased the efficiency of printing complex components. The benefits of these technologies are particularly evident in industries such as aerospace, energy and automotive, as they meet the growing demand for large-format, integrated manufacturing solutions.
The Chinese company Eplus3D, a provider of additive manufacturing solutions, has been instrumental in driving this progress. Since the introduction of the first PBF (Powder Bed Fusion) machine in China in 1993, Eplus3D has continuously invested in research and development to industrialize additive manufacturing and establish it on a global scale. With over 30 years of experience and a growing international market, the company has now delivered more than 100 large-format metal 3D printers. These machines are characterized by a build volume that exceeds one meter in at least one axis. Remarkably, around 40 of these machines exceed the one-meter mark in all three axes – X, Y and Z – including models such as the EP-M2050 and EP-M1550.
This achievement not only underlines Eplus3D’s technical expertise, but also demonstrates the increasing importance of 3D printing solutions in industrial manufacturing. Large-format PBF systems enable the efficient production of complex structures in high quality and promote the automation and modernization of manufacturing processes.
Looking to the future, Eplus3D plans to further optimize batch production and push the boundaries of metallic 3D printing. The company is focusing on innovation and technological excellence in order to anchor additive manufacturing even more firmly in the industry.
