3D Metal Additive Manufacturing - DAIMARU STEEL INDUSTRY CORPORATION [ILA Berlin 2026]

In aerospace and space-related manufacturing, metal parts increasingly require complex geometries, shorter development cycles, and flexible production methods. Metal additive manufacturing is becoming an important option for prototypes, small-lot production, and components that are difficult to produce with conventional machining alone.
At ILA Berlin 2026, DAIMARU STEEL INDUSTRY CORPORATION presented its contract manufacturing service using metal 3D printing. The company is based in Sakai-machi, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, and operates as a metal products manufacturer with nearly six decades of history.
The company explained that it has traditionally handled large-scale metal processing using equipment such as a 5,000-ton press and large gantry machining systems. Its experience includes parts for excavators and dump trucks, as well as in-house production of stainless-steel fuel tanks for trucks.
For ILA Berlin 2026, the company focused on metal 3D printing, a business it has been developing for the past four years. By combining its background in heavy metal processing with metal additive manufacturing, DAIMARU STEEL INDUSTRY CORPORATION positioned the service as a potential solution for aerospace and space-related parts, including prototypes and complex metal components.
