R&D-Driven Material Consultancy and Process Optimization
Every innovation starts with precise technical advice and an optimized process.
With ADD-ASTRA, you have a development partner who works alongside you to analyze, test, and improve materials and printing parameters until you achieve maximum production efficiency.
We support you:
- Defining process strategies for the main additive technologies (FDM, SLS, SLM, SLA).
- Adapting materials to your performance objectives, improving printability, adhesion, and resistance.
- Reducing development times and costs through rapid validation and optimized test cycles.
Where Performance Begins
Every industrial application requires a specific material, calibrated to performance, process, and operating context.
We guide you in the strategic choice of the most suitable material for your project.
How?
Our material selection process
Every industrial application requires a specific material, calibrated to performance, process, and operating context.
AM process
compatibility
We verify the material compatibility with the main additive technologies (FDM, SLS, SLA, MJF, LPBF).
Powder or filament
quality and behavior
We analyze parameters such as morphology, humidity, flow, and thermal behavior.
Regulatory and
certification pathways
We evaluate compliance requirements (biocompatibility, flame resistance, aerospace standards).
Cost vs. performance
balance
We optimize material yield by avoiding over-engineering and waste.
We help you to make materials perform
After choosing the material, we also work with you to make it more performant, more stable, and more efficient, with an approach that combines analysis, testing, and validation.
- Identification of the most suitable material for your project;
- Co-development of customized printing profiles;
- Mechanical and thermal testing for real performance;
- Regulatory consulting and process certification.
