We’re excited to be exhibiting at Formnext, the leading additive manufacturing event of the year! Join us at Hall 12.0, stand E102.

This year, nLIGHT is launching the AFX-2000 additive manufacturing laser. The AFX-2000 has undergone successful commercial validation with a prominent customer servicing the aerospace and automotive industries and has been demonstrated to increase print speed up to three times the highest possible build rates in the additive manufacturing industry.

This year we are hosting “Powered by Beam Shaping,” a seminar series featuring leading additive manufacturing OEMs highlighting how nLIGHT-enabled beam shaping is powering new applications and new markets in 3D printing. In total there are six talks over three days. Details are below.
