Impossible objects brings high-speed CBAM 25 series 3D printer to Europe

Paris, France (SPX) Nov 27, 2024

Industrial 3D printing leader Impossible Objects, Inc., has officially launched its high-speed CBAM 25 3D printer in the European market. Following its successful North American debut in June at the RAPID+TCT tradeshow, the CBAM 25 is now available to European manufacturers seeking a scalable solution for high-volume production.

Capable of printing a sixty-micron part layer in just four seconds, the CBAM 25 has already attracted a strong customer base in the U.S., with several installations planned by year-end. The move into Europe marks a critical step in the company's strategy to position additive manufacturing as a viable alternative to traditional mass-production techniques.

The announcement coincided with Impossible Objects' recent presence at Formnext in Frankfurt, where the CBAM 25 drew significant attention from manufacturers across various industries.

"As expected, the enormous interest that the CBAM 25 enjoyed following its unveil a few months ago was mirrored last week in Frankfurt," said Steve Hoover, CEO of Impossible Objects. "We had some very strong interest at the show with manufacturers in key vertical sectors, including one or two major automakers, who were impressed not only with the machine's speed but also its ability to produce strong, precise parts without warping and shrinkage and with unrivaled flatness."

Redefining Industrial Additive Manufacturing
The CBAM 25 sets a new benchmark in 3D printing, achieving speeds 15 times faster than HP's Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) technology and significantly outpacing SLS and FDM systems. This advancement allows for the production of composite parts made from carbon fiber, fiberglass, nylon, and PEEK that are not only stronger but also more precise, with tolerances within 100 microns. By reducing production costs for high-volume orders, the CBAM 25 is paving the way for 3D printing to expand into sectors like aerospace, defense, transportation, and electronics.

"With the revolutionary CBAM process and the speed of the CBAM 25, our superior materials, and lower cost, we are fulfilling the 3D printing promise," commented Robert Swartz, Founder and Chairman of Impossible Objects.

Swartz highlighted the transformative nature of the CBAM technology: "We are revolutionizing 3D printing and are delivering what others have promised but not achieved. We have invented a whole new way of 3D printing radically different than legacy methods and that is changing the way things are made. Our goal is to make better parts that rival CNC machining at lower cost and faster throughput so that we can meet production needs."

Impossible Objects' impressive client list includes prominent names such as Siemens, Honeywell, Boeing, and the U.S. Armed Forces, further emphasizing the versatility and reliability of their additive manufacturing solutions.
