November 22, 2024
Wayland Additive, based in Huddersfield, UK, has announced that it will be working in partnership with 3Dees Industries for sales of its Calibur3 Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-EB) metal Additive Manufacturing machines across Central and Eastern Europe.
3Dees Industries is a supplier of advanced AM solutions across Central and Eastern territories in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Ukraine, with a dedicated focus on practical application of the technologies for industry. Co-founder and CEO of 3Dees, Daniel Adam, has a strong connection to the aerospace industry. With a background in aeronautical engineering, Adam worked for many years as a specialist in aircraft design offices. His deep understanding of the essential and transformative role that electron beam AM technology, such as Wayland’s NeuBeam process, can play in aerospace manufacturing.
“I have been working with various additive technologies for more than two decades and I fully appreciate how they can foster innovation for industry and bring key efficiencies to manufacturing operations. The NeuBeam process from Wayland advances this even further for metal AM applications offering, as it does, an eBeam process with much greater productivity and more opportunities with more materials that are not traditionally used with AM. I am excited to work with the Wayland team and to share the benefits of the Calibur3 system across our network in Europe.”
Peter Hansford, CRO at Wayland Additive, commented: “This announcement about Wayland’s partnership with 3Dees Industries is a testament to the increasing demand we are seeing for Calibur3 and the capabilities of our NeuBeam process. It is gratifying to be able to work with Daniel at 3Dees, with their brilliant network and commitment to advancing AM technology across industry. Daniel truly gets the benefits that Calibur3 offers and he is a true inspiration, I am delighted to be working with him and progressing machine sales into Eastern Europe.”
