Euler launches free real-time metal AM build viewer
Euler, based in Hafnarfjörður, Iceland, has announced the release of Euler Viewer, a real-time build viewer for metal Additive Manufacturing operators. Euler Viewer will be debuted at RAPID + TCT 2026, scheduled to take place from April 14 –16 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Euler Viewer, available at no cost and requiring no hardware installation, is intended to provide operators with a secure way to watch their builds live in real time.
While most modern Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB) machines and other metal AM machines capture high-resolution images after each layer, this data goes unused due to a lack of accessible viewing tools, explains Euler. Each build generates thousands of powder bed images, creating a detailed, layer-by-layer record of the manufacturing process.
When made accessible, this data provides valuable insight into build quality and process stability. When viewed in real time, it allows operators to identify potential issues early, reduce waste, and make faster, more informed decisions during production.
At the same time, operators frequently rely on remote desktop software installed on the machine’s control PC to monitor builds off-site, creating a significant security vulnerability, as AM machines often sit on factory networks alongside sensitive production data, proprietary build files, and in many cases, controlled intellectual property.
Euler Viewer is intended to fix these challenges. By connecting metal AM machines to the platform, operators can automatically stream and store powder bed images as a build progresses, enabling real-time viewing from any browser without the need for remote desktop software. Built on SOC 2 Type II security controls, Euler Viewer is designed to handle build data in line with enterprise-grade standards.
The platform also allows users to navigate thousands of layers through a dedicated viewing interface, review completed builds in full, share access with colleagues via simple links, and for operators unable to connect machines directly, build data can be uploaded manually. The platform is reportedly quick to set up with deployment possible in minutes, does not require any additional hardware and is compatible with the vast majority of PBF-LB machines, states the company.
Euler Viewer is intended to provide an upgrade path to Euler’s full AI-powered monitoring platform, which adds automated defect detection, predictive failure alerts, statistical process control, advanced visualisation tools, and automated build reports.
“We keep seeing the same pattern at AM facilities around the world; thousands of powder bed images captured during every build, and many are not being used. Not because operators don’t care, but because there has never been a simple, dedicated tool to access them,” stated Dr Eyþór Rúnar Eiríksson, Euler CEO and Co-founder. “Euler Viewer is our response to that – we believe this is a tool the industry should have always had, and one that should be easily accessible to every operator. By making it free and purpose-built, we’re giving AM professionals a straightforward, secure way to actually view the data their machines already produce.”
The launch of Euler Viewer builds on Euler’s €2M seed funding round, co-led by Frumtak Ventures and Kvanted, announced in November 2025.
