Technology & Products
Key Products
Gauss MT90, a powder-free metal 3D printer using Paste-based Metal Extrusion (PME) technology.
Technological Advantage
Features an AI-enabled camera and viscosity monitoring system that uses a precision dispensing algorithm to maintain consistent material flow in real-time, ensuring the final part has over 90% metal density after sintering.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Eliminates explosion and inhalation risks associated with metal powders, offering a safe, cost-effective, and compact solution for industrial-grade metal 3D printing in standard office or lab environments.
How They Differentiate
Utilizes Paste-based Metal Extrusion (PME) with metal slurry instead of hazardous loose powders, enabling office-friendly operation without specialized ventilation. Features proprietary high-content metal pastes (90%+ density post-sintering) and AI-driven precision dispensing monitoring.
