Open days

Don't take our word for it. Bring the part.

The hard question in metal additive manufacturing is not whether the technology works. It is whether it works for your part, in your material, inside your process.

That question is not answered by a catalogue. It is answered by printing. You bring your geometry to our site, our engineers analyse it, we print it on an ALBA and you take it home. Free of charge and with no obligation to buy.

01 How it works

Four steps and one morning.

You send us the geometry

In STL, 3MF, DXF or whatever format you use. If you would rather bring it on the day, that works too.

We analyse it

Real manufacturability: orientation, supports, overhangs and the risk of recoater interference.

We print it

On an ALBA 300 or an ALBA 500, depending on the size of the part and the material.

You take it with you

The part and the analysis, in your hand. What you decide afterwards is up to you.

Free of charge and with no obligation to buy.

02 Where

In the hall where the machines are built.

Bizkaia Science and Technology Park, five minutes from Bilbao airport. We send you the exact address when we confirm the date.

Samylabs machine hall, with several ALBA machines lined up
This is where every machine is assembled, calibrated and tested before it ships

03 While you wait

What you will see, besides your part.

The machine working

With the process camera running. Layer by layer, and with the noise it actually makes.

SamyStudio from the inside

How a build is prepared with every parameter open, no locked-down recipes.

The powder, end to end

Sieving, extraction and ATEX safety. The part that never makes the brochures and dictates the whole installation.

Closed loop, no smoke

What our closed-loop control actually does and, above all, what it does not do.

04 Book

Tell us which part you are bringing and we will find a date.

Describe the part even in rough terms. If you do not have one yet, say so too: part of the work is deciding which one is worth bringing.

Phone +34 946 859 923

Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 17:00 (CET).

Don't believe us. Bring the part.

The hard question with metal additive manufacturing isn't whether the technology works. It's whether it works for your part, with your material, within your process.

That question can't be answered with a catalog. It can be answered by printing.

How it works

  1. You send us the geometry in STL, 3MF, DXF, or your preferred format, or you can bring it with you on the same day.
  2. Our engineers analyze the manufacturability: orientation, supports, overhangs, and the risk of re-building.
  3. We print it on an ALBA 300 or ALBA 500, depending on the size and material.
  4. You take the part and the analysis home. The choice is yours.

Free of charge and with no obligation to buy.

What to watch while you wait

  • The machine in operation, with the process build chamber running
  • How to prepare a build job in SamyStudio, with all parameters open
  • The complete powder management ecosystem: screening, extraction, and ATEX safety
  • What exactly our closed-loop control does, and what it doesn't do
