Dresden-based Additive Drives has secured over 25M euro in funding led by Nordic Alpha Partners to scale 3D-printed electric motors. By using AM for complex copper windings, the company achieves 98% efficiency and 25kW/kg power density without any rare-earth elements. This shift decouples electrification from toxic mining and geopolitical supply risks. With 70% lower energy loss and 21-day prototyping, AM is now a primary driver of sustainable industrial renewal. #3DPrinting #Sustainability #EV #ElectricMotors
