Wayland Additive Brings Innovative 3D Printing to ASEAN

Wayland Additive's NeuBeam Technology: A Game-Changer for ASEAN Manufacturers \\[1] As the manufacturing landscape in Southeast Asia continues to evolve, the need for advanced and efficient production methods becomes increasingly critical. Wayland Additive, a leading innovator in 3D printing, is poised to address these needs with its cutting-edge NeuBeam® electron beam process, which will be showcased at Formnext 2026 in Frankfurt from November 17-20, 2026. This technology promises to revolutionize the way factories in Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Malaysia approach metal additive manufacturing (AM). \\[2] At the heart of Wayland Additive's exhibit will be the Calibur3® machine, powered by the company's proprietary NeuBeam® technology. This innovative process neutralizes charge within the powder bed, eliminating the need for wide-area sintering, a traditional method used to control charge-induced instability in electron beam powder bed fusion (E-PBF). The result is a more flexible and efficient process, with loose rather than heavily sintered powder surrounding the part, making depowdering easier and improving the potential for powder reuse. \\[3] For ASEAN manufacturers, this means significant advantages. In Thailand, where the automotive and electronics industries are booming, the ability to process challenging materials like tungsten can open up new possibilities for high-performance parts. In Vietnam, the growing demand for precision components in the semiconductor and medical sectors can benefit from the enhanced flexibility and reduced post-processing burden offered by NeuBeam®. In Indonesia, the rapidly expanding aerospace and defense industries can leverage this technology to produce complex geometries that were previously impossible. And in Malaysia, where the mold and die industry is a key player, the improved powder reuse and cost efficiency can lead to substantial savings. \\[4] Darrin Dickinson, Head of Business Development (EMEA) at Wayland Additive, emphasizes the importance of customer-focused solutions. "We want to engage with manufacturers who have faced challenges with traditional AM processes, whether it's due to material limitations, economic constraints, or post-processing issues. Our goal is to show them how NeuBeam® can provide a viable alternative and create real commercial value." \\[5] To further support this mission, Wayland Additive has expanded its commercial team, with Adam Simons and Ryan Skradski strengthening the company's presence in the United States, and Daniele Caviglia joining as Head of Business Development for Europe. These additions ensure that manufacturers in ASEAN have direct access to experienced specialists who can help them explore the potential of NeuBeam®. \\[6] For those interested in delving deeper into the technical aspects, Dr. Martyn Hussey, Head of Technology & Innovation at Wayland Additive, will present on Tuesday, November 17, at 2:00 pm on the Technology Stage, Hall 12.1, B49. His presentation will cover the technical thinking behind NeuBeam® and how it offers a different approach to electron beam PBF. \\[7] In conclusion, Wayland Additive's invitation to Formnext 2026 is clear: don't just come to see another 3D printer; bring your most challenging part, material, or production problem and start a conversation about how NeuBeam® can make a difference.
