The big event for additive manufacturing brings the industry together again, and this preview brings together the clearest data on exhibitor presence linked to Formnext 2025. Verifiably, two key points appear on the plan of the enclosure: the Hall 11.1, stand E11 and the Hall 12.0, stand C121.

To facilitate planning, the information is organized here by topic, duplicate entries are removed and the technologies that are expected to be at the forefront are highlighted. The idea is that anyone can plan their journey with fewer questions and more focus.

Confirmed locations and stands

Overview of a 3D printing fair

On Hall 11.1, stand E11The focus will be on a complete ecosystem of equipment and materials designed to take the process from prototyping to production. The space is shaping up to be a meeting point for those looking to evaluate real-world performance in workshop and factory environments.

On the one hand, the stereolithography block will be exhibited with machines from the family Form 4 and Form 4L, aimed at very tight cycle times and fine-tuned repeatability. The proposal targets parts with great surface detail and a gentle learning curve for the operator.

On the other hand, the selective laser sintering area will be articulated around the Fuse Series, common when robust nylon, isotropic properties, and complex geometries without auxiliary structures are required. This combination is especially interesting for short batches and functional spare parts.

The set is completed with industrial grade materials ranging from technical resins with demanding mechanical and thermal requirements to powders optimized for productivity. Compatibility between equipment and consumables allows for seamless workflow adjustments.

In addition, the presence in the Hall 12.0, stand C121, an additional point on the route that will strengthen the exhibition offering related to additive manufacturing within the same exhibition venue.

Technologies and ecosystems that will set the agenda

Additive manufacturing technologies at the fair

New generation stereolithography seeks to bring the production speed to the final part's terrain, maintaining consistent finishes and fine tolerances. These proposals are often the entry point for design and quality teams that need to validate geometries quickly.

In selective sintering, nylon-centric solutions stand out for their strength and dimensional stability, offering components with excellent performance. isotropic and unsupportedDust management and thermal control are key to ensuring batch-to-batch repeatability.

The convergence of hardware, software and post-processing allows today a clearer traceability, fitting from file preparation to the finishing and verification of the piece. This ecosystem approach reduces downtime and simplifies team building.

In parallel, the resin and powder catalogues incorporate options for electrical, thermal or friction requirements, with advanced resins and technical polymers which open the door to more industrial applications without jumping to more expensive processes.

How to get the most out of your visit

It is advisable to mark in the pavilion map Stands E11 (11.1) and C121 (12.0) to save travel time. With a tight schedule, having a clear understanding of the points of interest avoids waiting and facilitates on-site comparisons.

If possible, reserve space for demos and talks in which complete workflows are explained: from part preparation to post-processing. Seeing it live helps measure real-time times and operational needs.

Have conversations with the technical equipment on materials and maintenance: print profiles, cost per part, energy consumption, and cleaning. This is critical information for scaling without surprises.

Don't leave without collecting technical sheets, samples, and support contacts. With this data, it's easier to replicate the results in your environment and assess the return on investment.

With these locations and themes now clear, a coherent itinerary remains to focus the visit on the most relevant points: E11 in Hall 11.1 as a hub for SLA and SLS ecosystems with industrial materials, and C121 in Hall 12.0 as an additional point to complete the panorama.
