US-based company Xact Metal has reported its highest first-quarter order intake in company history for Q1 2025. Already in the previous year, Xact Metal had recorded a 40 percent increase in Q1 compared to 2023. The continued upward trend highlights growing demand for affordable metal 3D printing solutions among small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as a broader move toward decentralizing additive manufacturing within large organizations.
“In the first quarter of 2025 we achieved our highest 1Q order revenue to date, up over 60% over the same period on 2024,” said Juan Mario Gomez, CEO of Xact Metal. “Our strategy to bring metal powder-bed fusion to small and medium size organizations and to decentralize central labs at large organizations continues to be welcomed by our customers. We are excited to see this continued growth, especially since in 2024 we grew first quarter order revenue by 40% in comparison with the same period in 2023.”
At the core of the company’s success lies its product strategy, which aims to simplify access to powder-bed fusion technology. In particular, the XM200G printer — available in both single- and dual-laser configurations — is seeing strong demand across manufacturing, defense, and research sectors. Additionally, Xact Metal has introduced new features such as the XM Mini module for material development, an extended build height option, and the XM Sieve system for metal powder reclamation.
“Our growth has been driven by a strong product development focus,” said Gomez. “Our XM200G single- and dual-laser 3D metal printer continues to perform well, attracting new and repeat customers in manufacturing, defense and research applications. In addition, we continue to introduce new product features, like the new XM Mini material development module, an extended build height option to our current print envelope, and the XM Sieve for reclaiming of metal powder.”
With this trajectory, Xact Metal continues to pursue its goal of making metal 3D printing a viable option beyond centralized industrial environments. The record-breaking Q1 2025 results indicate increasing market acceptance of this approach.
