Wayland Additive, a leader in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-EB) technology, has partnered with 3Dees Industries to introduce and expand the use of its Calibur3 metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) machines across Central and Eastern Europe. This collaboration will accelerate the adoption of advanced AM solutions, particularly in high-precision industries such as aerospace, automotive, and defense, across key markets including the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Ukraine.
Strategic Partnership to Enhance Advanced Manufacturing in Europe
3Dees Industries, renowned for its specialization in advanced AM solutions, will serve as the primary distributor of Wayland’s Calibur3 machines in these regions. Based in the Czech Republic, 3Dees has established a robust network, including operations in Prague, Brno, and Ostrava, as well as strong ties with academia through institutions like the Technical University of Košice in Slovakia. The company’s deep commitment to advancing AM technologies for practical, industry-specific applications will significantly enhance the reach and impact of Wayland’s technologies in these markets.
Leveraging the NeuBeam Process for Aerospace and Beyond
The core of this partnership lies in the powerful NeuBeam process, an advanced electron beam technology developed by Wayland. Calibur3, equipped with NeuBeam, offers significant advantages in terms of productivity and material versatility. Daniel Adam, co-founder and CEO of 3Dees, who has a background in aeronautical engineering, highlighted the potential of NeuBeam to revolutionize aerospace manufacturing by providing high-quality metal components that meet stringent industry requirements. The process allows for faster production times and a broader selection of materials, improving manufacturing efficiency and reducing costs.
Growing Demand for Electron Beam AM Technology in Eastern Europe
Peter Hansford, CRO at Wayland Additive, emphasized the growing demand for the Calibur3 system and the increasing interest in electron beam AM technology across various industrial sectors in Eastern Europe. He pointed to the strategic partnership with 3Dees Industries as a key driver in expanding their presence in this emerging market. The collaboration is poised to help companies in the region overcome traditional manufacturing challenges by providing access to cutting-edge metal AM systems that enhance precision, material strength, and operational efficiency.
Continued Support for Ukraine Amid Global Challenges
In addition to expanding its presence in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, 3Dees Industries has been a key player in supplying advanced additive manufacturing technologies to Ukraine since 2021. Their ongoing support for Ukrainian industries has become even more critical as the country faces significant challenges. 3Dees’ efforts in providing reliable AM solutions to critical sectors underscore their dedication to fostering innovation and supporting the region’s industrial growth under difficult circumstances.
