MELBOURNE, Australia, Sep 10, 2025 – SPEE3D, a leading global additive manufacturing company, is excited to announce the launch of its European Tour for the Expeditionary Manufacturing Unit (EMU). Over the coming months, we’re collaborating with local partners across several European cities to host live manufacturing demonstrations featuring our EMU system. These events will include workshops on how advanced manufacturing supports critical metal part supply chains and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations, while attendees witness our XSPEE3D manufacture parts for land and naval platforms on corrosion-resistant materials such as Aluminium 6061, which are then post-processed, machined, and tested with our SPEE3Dcell—all on-site within hours.
“Typically, people see our technology only if they visit our factory, attend a tradeshow, or if they’re a defence force taking it out in the field. This time, we are collaborating with local industry leaders to bring the technology directly to European forces, OEMs, and defence research organisations, allowing them to evaluate firsthand our Expeditionary Manufacturing Unit’s ability to rapidly produce mission-critical parts.” commented, Byron kennedy, CEO, SPEE3D.
Our EMU has proven its value in field conditions, having been successfully deployed by US and UK militaries during AM Village and RIMPAC field trials. Our technology is also actively used by defence forces worldwide, including the Japanese Ground Self Defense Force and Ukraine Armed Forces. The EMU consists of two 20ft containers providing an end-to-end manufacturing solution easily transported by civilian trucks. It includes our XSPEE3D metal 3D printer, capable of producing parts up to 0.9m x 0.7m in diameter and 40kg in weight, and our SPEE3Dcell post-processing facility offering heat treatment, machining, tooling, and testing capabilities.
“The integration of our MainChain software platform with SPEE3D’s EMU capability creates an unprecedented solution for secure, traceable manufacturing. Together, we demonstrate how a sovereign digital production ecosystem ensures complete control and transparency throughout the manufacturing process.” commented Alexandre Pédemonte, CEO and Co-Founder of Vistory.
Next stops include Lasertech in Sweden, Perron038 in the Netherlands, and Poland. At each event, attendees can explore real-world applications and engage with our engineers and local industry experts.
