Wayland Additive will be presenting its metal-based 3D printing technology NeuBeam at this year’s RAPID + TCT from April 8 to 10 in Detroit. The Calibur3 system, which is based on a modified electron beam powder bed fusion (eBeam PBF) process and offers an alternative to conventional laser and electron beam processes, will take center stage at the trade fair.
Peter Hansford, Chief Revenue Officer at Wayland underscores the commercial viability of Wayland’s solution. “It’s not just about technical advancement — it’s about making AM work for real-world production. Many of our customers need reliable, scalable solutions that fit seamlessly into their manufacturing environments. With Calibur3 and NeuBeam®, we have a system that not only delivers superior part quality but also makes metal AM more efficient and flexible than ever before. We are excited to demonstrate at RAPID + TCT how this technology is not just an evolution, but a revolution in AM.”
In contrast to traditional eBeam technologies, NeuBeam works without the usual sintering of the entire powder bed volume. The process neutralizes electrical charges in a targeted manner, which leads to more stable process control and a greater variety of materials. These properties make NeuBeam particularly interesting for applications where conventional PBF processes reach their limits.
Peter Hansford concludes, “RAPID + TCT is the perfect platform for us to connect with the AM community in North America and demonstrate how NeuBeam is reshaping the landscape of metal AM. We invite everyone to come and see firsthand why this technology is a game-changer for industrial applications.”
As part of the event, Martyn Hussey, Head of New Technologies at Wayland, will deliver a technical presentation. He will explain the differences between NeuBeam and established PBF approaches, particularly with regard to process control and material flexibility. The talk will also cover the development history of electron beam technology in 3D printing and provide an outlook on future application possibilities.
With its presence at RAPID + TCT, Wayland Additive emphasizes its ambition to make industrial metal 3D printing accessible beyond specialized applications and suitable for broader production. Interested professionals can find the company at booth 1301.
