MetalBase is disrupting the industry with the Metal 1.0, a Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) machine priced at just €8,500. Developed by VDL engineer Tom Bakker, this 60W diode-based system achieves industrial-level density for Inconel and 316L within a 128x100mm build volume. By leveraging open-source Klipper software and a kit-based assembly, it lowers the entry cost for metal AM by nearly 90%. This radical shift democratizes localized metal prototyping for workshops and SMEs. 🛠️✨ #3DPrinting #MetalAM #AdditiveManufacturing #Innovation #Engineering
