Meltio M600.
Standalone industrial metal 3D printer.

Meltio's flagship standalone metal printer. Fully inert print chamber, built-in 3-axis probing system, automated tool-changers and pre-calibrated Blue Laser deposition head. Built for unattended 24/7 production of medium-sized metal parts up to 300 × 400 × 600 mm. The flagship choice for manufacturers serializing metal AM or running rapid R&D iterations.

300 × 400 × 600 mm print envelope. Enough for medium-sized parts or a batch of smaller parts in a single run.
Fully inert chamber, O₂ < 10 ppm. Required for reactive materials such as titanium and to fully exploit the open materials library.
Single, Dual or Quad wire configuration. Print sequentially with up to four different welding wires in one part — ideal for hard-facing or multi-material components.
3-axis probing + zero-point clamping. Built-in piezo touch sensor positions the workpiece and laser head for feature addition or repair on existing parts.

[ 02 · Why this configuration ]

Four properties that drive the choice

/ 01

Standalone production-ready

No integration work, no external robot or CNC needed. Directly deployable as production machine or R&D platform — install, inert, print.

/ 02

24/7 lights-out

Boosted feeding system for 100+ kg spools, advanced sensor suite for process control, simplified UI. Unattended long runs without operator intervention.

/ 03

Reactive materials

Fully inert chamber with O₂ < 10 ppm — titanium and sensitive alloys are standard, not just possible in lab conditions.

/ 04

Repair + new build

Built-in 3-axis probing system with piezo touch enables feature addition and repair on existing parts — not just prints from scratch.

[ 03 · Applications ]

Where this configuration pays off

Three typical scenarios where the M600 is the right choice for your production.

Application 01

R&D and material development

For research institutes, universities and R&D departments developing parameter libraries. The 3-axis Horizon slicer and open welding-wire ecosystem make iteration cycles fast and cost-efficient.

Universities · Research · Material development
Application 02

Medium parts in series

Production of medium-sized metal parts up to 300 × 400 × 600 mm — flanges, brackets, near-net-shape geometries — in low to medium series, without casting or forging investment.

Manufacturing · Aerospace · Defense
Application 03

Multi-material in one part

Hard-facing on soft substrate, copper-steel cooling elements, bi-metallic joints. The Quad-wire option enables sequential printing of up to four different welding wires in one setup.

Repair · Cladding · MRO
[ Printed with Meltio ]

Parts suited to 3-axis printing.

The M600 builds layer by layer in 3 axes. Ideal for prismatic and compact parts such as gears, brackets and housings, near-net-shape from standard welding wire.
