What your process engineering lead actually checks

Supported by the team that runs it

We run AO Metal and partner systems daily for our own print services, so install, training, and first builds are handled by engineers who actually operate the machine. When you call support, you reach the team that qualified it.

An applications engineer on the line

Questions on build volume, laser config, throughput, or material compatibility? A named applications engineer scopes it directly — not a sales rep. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.

About this product
You’re buying from additive-manufacturing specialists — not a gadget shop.

  • We run production 3D printing across metal, polymer and ceramic every day — we know these machines because we operate machines like them.
  • Every first order includes a free Design-for-AM review by a real engineer — so your first print succeeds.
  • You reach an applications engineer, not a sales rep — straight answers on materials, build volume and throughput.
  • One partner for the whole stack: the printer, every filament and plate, and our own print service for overflow capacity.
