With the increasing customer adoption of the Lumia X1 powered by Hi-Speed SLA technology in Q1 2025, unit placements and revenue each experienced significant growth.
April 7, 2025, Charlotte, NC – Axtra3D, a leader in Hi-Speed SLA 3D printing, has completed its best quarter with unit placements and revenue each experiencing significant growth. This milestone underscores the company’s strong performance and stability in the additive manufacturing market.
Axtra3D’s trifecta of, no-tradeoff Hi-Speed SLA technology, customer friendly business models and industry wide materials ecosystem, creates a unique and superior advantage for customers seeking photopolymer Additive Manufacturing (AM) solutions. The simultaneous laser and DLP scanning offered by Axtra3D’s Lumia X1 3D printer allows users to overcome compromises typically made between throughput, accuracy, feature resolution, and part size found in conventional SLA, DLP and LCD systems. This presents the opportunity to print precise, superior quality parts 10-20X faster than conventional SLA, a unique value that enhances the business models of its customers.
Gianni Zitelli, CEO of Axtra3D expresses, “I am delighted to share that the past quarter has been our best ever, and that we are, day by day, increasing both the number of installed systems and our global customer base.
I would like to thank our customers, who are and will always remain the sole focus of our attention and effort, and to thank the team behind this company: a group with over 100 years of combined experience in Additive Manufacturing, who, with immense personal and professional dedication, are building something truly unique in the AM industry.
This achievement gives me confidence and drives me to continue believing that the three pillars on which we founded this project many years ago are solid foundations for healthy and sustainable growth:
- To develop the most advanced and reliable technologies and serve our customers with the best customer care.
- To become one of the benchmark companies in our industry.
- To grow the company on solid financial foundations rooted in economic sustainability.
Together with my Axtra family, this incredible team of young and experienced Additive experts, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Frank, a true pioneer in this industry, and with him Kerstin, Alexander, and Florian, not simply investors, but true mentors who help shape the future of Axtra3D.”
Hi-Speed SLA technology unlocks new applications for industries that demand the highest performance. For example, the ceramic molds allow customers to move from idea to injected parts within a single shift and true silicone solution retains mechanical and chemical properties ideal for medical devices, wearable technology, and industrial components and seals.
Axtra3D continues to expand its presence globally, with increasing adoption across key industries such as aerospace, medical, automotive, industrial and consumer goods. The company’s innovative approach is resonating with both service bureaus and end-users, who seek high-performance AM solutions with no compromises. Recent partnerships and customer acquisitions further validate the strong market demand for Axtra3D’s solutions.
Frank Herzog, CEO of HZG Groupand founder of Concept Laser, as well as an investor in Axtra3D, shared his excitement about the company’s impressive growth. He indicated, “As the AM industry undergoes significant transformation, Axtra3D has remained steadfast in delivering high-performance solutions and its expertise is setting a new standard within AM production. Axtra3D has evolved into a reliable and stable provider of Advanced AM technologies. It has been one of HZG’s most rewarding investments and will have our continued support. Its strong growth in Q1 2025 is a testament to its customer friendly business model, experienced team, and unwavering commitment to service and reliability.”
