AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, Oct 24, 2023 – MX3D has announced the sale of its state-of-the-art M1 Metal AM System to the prestigious Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) of the Department of Defense (DoD) in Vicksburg, MS, USA.
Since late 2022 MX3D has set the goal to become industry-leader for WAAM Systems in North America. This sale to the US Army, following the delivery of a M1 to Canada earlier this year, underscores MX3D’s successful execution of this growth strategy.
The M1 Metal AM System is to be installed in 2024 Q1 at the ERDC Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory (GSL), part of the US Army research centers.
Gijs van der Velden, CEO of MX3D, commented on this milestone, stating, “Serving the USA market and collaborating with the USA DoD is a significant achievement for MX3D. It reflects our dedication to grow our North-American presence. It also shows that our focus on high productivity, certification and automation is paying off.”
