Read for freeWelding3D.de is a knowledge and machine mediation platform for industrial metal additive manufacturing. We combine in-depth technological expertise across processes such as PBF, DED, WAAM, and Binder Jetting with concrete machine solutions, brokering suitable manufacturing systems directly via our platform.
Welding3D.de serves industrial companies, engineering teams, production managers, and decision-makers evaluating metal additive manufacturing, comparing AM processes objectively, or selecting an industrial production system – as well as machine manufacturers and system integrators showcasing their solutions.
We guide companies from initial technological orientation to the right manufacturing system. Rather than promoting a single process, we evaluate which system matches your requirements in terms of part size, alloy, precision, and economics, and broker the suitable metal 3D printing system directly via Welding3D.de.
Welding3D.de provides cross-technology coverage of industrial metal 3D printing – including Laser and Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB/M, PBF-EB/M), Directed Energy Deposition (powder and wire-laser / W-LMD), Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM), Binder Jetting, Material Extrusion, Cold Spray, and hybrid process chains.
Alongside system selection, we provide insights into modern metal additive manufacturing capabilities – such as Wire-Laser Metal Deposition (W-LMD) –, suitable alloys, and post-processing workflows, supporting companies with technical orientation for specific component requirements.
Through our whitepapers, technical articles, 5-step Decision Engine, and the AM Copilot knowledge assistant, you receive structured evaluations of processes, alloys, and economic factors – creating a solid engineering foundation prior to a machine or project inquiry.
