Get an inside look at how metal 3D printing really works — from raw powder to finished part.
In this video, we’ll walk you through the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) process at RapidDirect, showing how high-powered lasers precisely melt and fuse layers of metal powder to create strong, detailed parts.

From raw aluminum to a beautifully machined rocket engine component 🚀
Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with intricate cooling channels and precision details — projects like this are always exciting to see come to life.
Congrats to @innovative_ipl on the Ethérion project 👏 Looking forward to what’s next.
Behind every finished part is a team of skilled hands making it happen—day in, day out.
From engineers to machinists, from operators to support teams, every step in the process relies on people who care about getting things right. Precision doesn't just come from machines—it comes from experience, dedication, and attention to detail.
This International Workers'Day, we celebrate the people who keep things moving.

It's often the small details that define a great part—clean edges, tight tolerances, and a finish that matches the design intent.
Achieving that consistently requires more than just equipment—it's about process control, experience, and attention to detail.

From 3D model to the arena—here comes Anubis.
We supported Anthony Pereira’s combat robot build, and it’s great to see it in action during one of the matches. From early design to a fully built machine, now it’s out there taking hits and giving them back.
Always fun to see projects like this come to life in the arena.

Recently, we received a surprise from one of our customers — Return Bottoms. They sent us a box of their products as a gift to our team.
We previously supported part of their yo-yo project, and it's great to see how they've been building out their product line step by step. They've also referred new customers to work with us.
Our team had a great time trying out the yo-yos — always nice to see something we've been part of out in the real world 😄
