Technology & Products
Key Products
Multirap M800 Plus; Multirap M500 Plus; Multirap M10; Multirap M4 Metal; M1000 (with Reichenbacher Hamuel)
Technological Advantage
Proprietary multi-material FDM technology with rotating seal mechanism prevents filament leakage, achieving 0.2-second material switches vs. minutes for traditional systems, protected by patents.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces equipment production lead times and costs by 40-50% through large-format, high-temperature FDM printing with patented multi-material heads, enabling on-demand spare parts and functional prototypes.
How They Differentiate
3x larger build volume than standard industrial FDM printers (1m³ vs. 0.3m³) with 6-material capability vs. 1-2 materials for competitors; 40% lower cost-per-part for large aerospace brackets due to reduced waste and faster printing.
Market & Competition
Target Customers
Industrial manufacturers, R&D departments, and companies needing custom filament extrusion or multimaterial printing
Industry Verticals
Aerospace; Medical; Automotive; Railroad; Orthopedics; Equipment Manufacturing
