Mastrex has launched its MX300 metal 3D printing system, designed to 'bridge the gap' between prototyping and full-scale metal part production.
The MX300 boasts a 300 x 300 x 350 mm build volume and dual 500W lasers, with Mastrex suggesting it will be able to support users who require precision, scalability, and dependable production performance across demanding applications.
Mastrex has priced the MX300 at $185,000 and says it has been developed with operational efficiency in mind. The machine is also said to be compatible with titanium, stainless steel, aluminium, cobalt-chrome, Inconel and more.
“Launching the MX300 is an important milestone for Mastrex, as we continue our mission to enable the current and next generation with technologies that are robust, reliable, and accessible,” said Co-Founder, Ilay Fridland. “Combined with our legacy in laser excellence, the MX300 is the pinnacle of precision and performance.”
Mastrex expects the machine to be able to support applications in the aerospace, defence, and medical markets, with vertically integrated manufacturers and machine shops both being targeted. Solomon MFG, a manufacturing service provider, is among the first to adopt the new system.
“Adding metal 3D printing to our machine shop has always been a priority, but it’s been cost-prohibitive,” said Solomon MFG CEO Eli Solomon. “With the accessibility of the MX300, we are immediately adding capability for our current customers and uncovering new opportunities. It’s a distinct competitive advantage.”
Like all Mastrex systems, the MX300 is designed, assembled, and tested in the United States.
