March 10, 2025
Plansee, headquartered in Reutte, Austria, has announced its acquisition of a Hammer Evo35 lithography‐based metal manufacturing (LMM) machine from Incus GmbH, Vienna. The addition is intended to strengthen its industrial metal Additive Manufacturing offering.
The Hammer Evo35 is a redesign of Incus’s Hammer Lab35, offering Incus’s LMM AM technology in tandem with better production capabilities and industrial performance than the earlier machine.
“After intensive material development efforts, we have proven the capabilities of the technology for refractory metal printing,” said Dr Gerald Mitteramskogler, CEO of Incus. “It is a great pleasure to provide our technology to such a prestigious organisation as Plansee SE.”
“With this technology, Plansee SE is expanding its capabilities for producing high-resolution parts and components out of refractory metals and their alloys using 3D printing,” added Dr Dirk Handtrack, Project Manager at Plansee SE. “This underlines the excellent and trusting cooperation between the two companies.”
