- LightSPEE3D 3D Printer – SPEE3D introduced, LightSPEE3D, metal 3D printer that allows printing of manufacturing parts in low or high volumes
- Supersonic 3D Deposition (SP3D) – Uses company-patented technology where rocket nozzle boosts air speed up to three times speed of sound to produce industrial grade metal and high-density parts
- Speed and Cost – Can print up to 1,000 times faster than traditional metal 3D printers, with auto parts that take 100 hours and $3,000 to print being printed in 20 minutes at cost of $30
- Robotic System – Utilizes robotic system that manipulates part while printing, eliminating need for support structures
- Target Market – Initially targets manufacturers working with aluminum and copper castings
- First User – Charles Darwin University became first user of LightSPEE3D printer, receiving $300,000 (AUD$400,000) in grant
