scene and fits perfectly with our strategy ‘Global. Ahead. Sustainable.’, with which we present ourselves as technology leaders in our respective markets,” added Rainer Kurtz, CEO of Kurtz Ersa. Together with Managing Director Uwe Rothaug, Kurtz was also pleased with the “fantastically short time to market” of the Alpha 140.

The cooperation between the companies is a classic win-win scenario. For Kurtz Ersa, the process knowledge of the LMI team in the field of Additive Manufacturing was the key to entering this new business field. For its part, LMI, as a young company, was able to utilise the sales and service channels of the more established Kurtz Ersa as a perfect complement to the roll-out of its metal AM technology.

The Alpha 140 is manufactured at the Kurtz Ersa production site in Kreuzwertheim. A 24-hour service is offered thanks to a global presence, with live presentations being available in the the Kurtz Ersa Corporation’s demo centres. An Alpha 140 specific showroom is also planned for LMI in Aachen. www.kurtzersa.com
