Facility Flexibility

Flexible hardware platform to fit effectively in your facility.

Welding & Materials

Powered by a multi-transfer power source to print any weldable alloy.

Seamless Facility Integration

Cost-Effective & Adaptable Deployment

The MB System provides the core essentials of industrial WAAM, engineered for flexible integration into your manufacturing facility.  It delivers the core essentials of industrial WAAM in a highly cost-effective format.

Plug-and-Play Integration:

Easily deploy the WAAM platform directly onto your existing facility floor.

Scalable Operations:

Provides greater flexibility for facilities with spatial restrictions. 

Advanced Process Control:

Integrates the intelligent MetalXL workflow and process control for high-quality printing.

(Note: The MB System requires the facility to be equipped for robotic welding safety. Otherwise, our M1 System is the recommended solution.)

Foundational WAAM

From CAD to Print in One Go

The MB Metal AM System provides a streamlined entry into industrial-grade metal additive manufacturing. Fully equipped with hardware from leading robotic and welding brands, the system relies on high workflow automation and intelligent software that requires only basic engineering skills to operate.

Streamlined End-to-End Workflow:

MX3D’s MetalXL suite seamlessly handles everything from CAD toolpath planning (CAM) to live metal printing (Live) and post-print analytics (VIZ).

Cost-Effective Production:

Achieve up to 50% lower CAPEX and over 3x lower OPEX than powder-based laser 3D metal printing systems.

Extensive Material Library:

Print with nearly all weldable alloys, including high-strength steels, aluminum, bronze, nickel, and copper-based alloys.

The Essentials

Industrial WAAM Platform

The MB System is engineered as a foundational WAAM system tailored to your facility’s specific needs. We install the WAAM platform, including the core 8-axis welding robot system integrated with the full end-to-end MetalXL workflow.  MetalXL manages the entire workflow from CAD to quality print, empowered by the advanced MetalXL Control System and optional 3D scanning or thermal cameras.
