Technology & Products
Key Products
Automated depowdering systems (S1, S2 series); Vibratory finishing machines for AM materials; Automated shot blasting systems (C and M series); Chemical finishing / vapor smoothing (via LuxYours partnership); Custom consumables (grinding media, polishing compounds, shot blast media); Turnkey automated post-processing lines; Contract finishing services; AM process development and training (Rösler Academy); Four dedicated AM test centers
Technological Advantage
Vertical integration — in-house manufacturing of all post-processing system components; 90+ years of surface finishing R&D applied to AM-specific materials (titanium, aluminum, polymers); automation architecture enabling true high-volume AM post-processing; global infrastructure (16 branches, 150+ distributors); strategic HP partnership for MJF integration; minority stake in LuxYours expanding polymer vapor smoothing capability.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces AM part post-processing time by up to 80% and per-part finishing costs by 40–60% through fully automated systems that deliver consistent surface quality and repeatability at unlimited production volume — backed by Rösler Group's 90+ years of surface finishing expertise.
How They Differentiate
Unique vertical integration manufacturing all system components in-house vs. assembled-from-parts competitors; 90+ year surface finishing heritage provides deep process knowledge vs. AM-native startups; equipment-agnostic approach works across all AM technologies; global test center network enables rapid customer process qualification; Rösler financial scale supports long-term R&D and strategic investments.
