WAAM Solutions
For Manufacturing

Flexible Production On-Demand

Tailor part production in days, not months, perfect for prototyping, tooling, and custom parts.

Redesign Freedom & Optimization

Embrace topology optimized design, consolidate assemblies, and reduce costs due to weight and material reduction.

Digital Inventory, Lower Costs

Eliminate stockpiles, print only what you need, when you need it, with full traceability.

WAAM for Manufacturing

Empower your operations with fast, flexible, certified metal printing.

MX3D’s WAAM technology combines robotic precision, in-house MetalXL software, and full production integration. This enables manufacturing firms to bring large, complex metal components in-house with speed, sustainability, and unmatched quality, thanks also to our M1 and MX Metal AM systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does WAAM fit into an existing manufacturing workflow?

WAAM integrates seamlessly alongside traditional CNC machining and standard robotic welding. By printing components to a near-net-shape, manufacturers can rapidly build the bulk of the part and then finish functional surfaces conventionally. Learn about WAAM machine pricing →

Is WAAM cost-effective compared with CNC machining from billet?

Absolutely. Because WAAM is an additive near-net-shape process, it completely avoids the 60 to 80% material waste associated with subtractively milling complex parts from solid billets. This makes it highly cost-effective, particularly when working with expensive alloys like duplex and Inconel. Explore the pros and cons of WAAM →

Can WAAM be used for plant spare parts and obsolescence management?

Yes, WAAM is an ideal solution for plant spare parts and managing component obsolescence. It allows facilities to shift toward a digital inventory, securely storing CAD files instead of maintaining expensive physical stock on warehouse shelves. Explore print-on-demand services →

Which heavy-industry components are commonly printed with WAAM?

WAAM is routinely used to manufacture massive, low-volume industrial components. The most commonly printed heavy-industry parts include press dies, valve bodies, pump housings, crane hooks, and robust machine frames. View our manufacturing cases →

Can WAAM integrate with existing robotic welding equipment?

Yes, heavy manufacturing facilities can leverage their existing hardware. By implementing MX3D’s MetalXL software, a standard industrial welding robot can be fully transformed into an intelligent, closed-loop WAAM production system. Discover MetalXL WAAM software →
