What happened?
Mastrex has introduced a six-machine metal laser powder bed fusion range, with the entry model reportedly starting around $39,000 – an unusually low price point for LPBF hardware.
Key details
- Mastrex has introduced a six-machine LPBF portfolio.
- The entry price is reported at roughly $39,000.
- The company is working with Continuum Powders on material validation.
- A key question is whether metal AM can sustain a significantly lower hardware entry cost without compromising production requirements.
Why it matters
Capital cost is one of the biggest barriers in metal AM. If new entrants can deliver genuinely usable machines at this price level, smaller engineering firms and labs could gain access to technology that was previously out of reach.
