Sandvik and BEAMIT make several advances in additive manufacturing

Sandvik and BEAMIT have made several important advances in metal additive manufacturing (AM) over the last six months. Most recently the BEAMIT Group acquired ZARE, meaning that two leading additive manufacturing service bureaus in Europe join forces to become one of the largest independent AM service providers, serving the most demanding industries.

In July 2019, Sandvik acquired a significant stake in leading European-based AM service provider BEAMIT, with the right to further increase its stake over time. BEAMIT is a trusted supplier of advanced metal AM-components to demanding industries, including aerospace, space, automotive and energy.

“In September 2020, Sandvik and BEAMIT took another important step forward when the BEAMIT Group acquired 100% of ZARE. This brings together two leading additive manufacturing service bureaus in Europe, to create one of the largest independent AM service providers – serving the most demanding industries,” says Kristian Egeberg, President of Sandvik Additive Manufacturing.

ZARE, founded in 1963, has progressively grown into a leading, integrated additive manufacturing service bureau – focusing on high-end components for demanding industries like aerospace, automotive, motorsport and energy – offering a full range of advanced AM services. The company has around 50 employees, a wide range of metal and polymer printers, as well as CNC machines for post-processing operations and relevant quality certifications.
