Brainport Eindhoven is known for its rich experience in high-mix, low-volume, high-complexity production and has a lot of knowledge and expertise in additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is a technique where a three-dimensional product is built of printed material, layer by layer and based on a digital design. Additive manufacturing offers a lot of advantages compared to traditional production technologies. For example, you are able to design more complex products, you need less material, you can make lighter products and gain more product performance and functionalities. Moreover, production can be closer to the end user or OEM. Allowing for a more sustainable manufacturing process. 

With over 70 AM suppliers, the Additive Manufacturing Hub of Brainport Eindhoven offers a unique concentration of suppliers, expertise and technologies in additive manufacturing. All working together as an integrated supply chain towards the development of your AM application, production line or factory.
