Using a process that in some way is similar to high-end industrial material extrusion, ValCUN produces parts directly using liquid metal. Developed with a fully automated production chain in mind, the Molten Metal Deposition (MMD) process is ideally suited for any factory floor, without complex intervention and interruption of current workflows.

This approach reduces manufacturing lead times, easy and affordable operation, and is cost-effective, environment-friendly production. ValCUN's patented MMD technology reduces investment and operating costs by using safe-to-handle feedstock material instead of metal powders and working without high-energy lasers.

To learn more about the potential of ValCUN's upcoming metal 3D printer, its market strategy and supported materials, we speak with Co-founder Jonas Galle, a mechanical engineer with experience in the aerospace industry and a passion for mechatronics, PCB design, data acquisition & processing, production methods and design.
