UAE’s First 3D Printing Facility Launched by Immensa Technology Labs
Immensa Technology Labs, the UAE’s leading Additive Manufacturing (AM or 3D printing) company, has launched the country’s first 3D printing facility. This was done in line with the ‘Dubai 3D Printing Strategy’ launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
Immensa’s state-of-the-art facility houses over eight 3D printing systems and offers over 30 materials for production. It is equipped to build and manufacture production quality parts, components and one-off prototypes for customers across a variety of industries using a wide range of advanced technologies including Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Stereolithography (SLA), Extrusion (FDM), and Material Jetting.
Immensa’s highly specialised, multi-disciplinary engineers – who make up the most experienced 3D printing team in the region – collaborate closely with partners to advance their businesses and solve their most complex manufacturing problems by providing integrated digital and mechanical design and multi-material manufacturing solutions. The company also offers full consultation on the integration of 3D printing into manufacturing processes.
Fahmi Al-Shawwa, CEO of Immensa Technology Labs, commented: “There are ample opportunities for organisations in the UAE to adopt AM to enhance their efficiencies and competitiveness, and we are focused on providing world-class and viable 3D printing solutions. Our team is passionate about 3D printing, design and manufacturing, and we cover the entire process to help our clients at every step of the way, from design concepts and material options to technology selection, 3D printing production and post-production processing.”
Immensa was established in 2016 to provide comprehensive solutions whereby AM can add value. The company is also committed to the research and development of 3D printing techniques, and has established its own proprietary techniques to fabricate and produce objects that would not be physically possible without AM.
Fahmi Al-Shawwa concluded: “We believe in the extraordinary potential of 3D printing and its myriad benefits across all fields of business, where it can reduce costs, redefine productivity and fuel innovation. We are pleased to be opening our doors and supporting the ‘Dubai 3D Printing Strategy’, as we are confident that AM is the next big step in the world of manufacturing. This technology will support a new era of innovation by unlocking a world of fresh possibilities.”
