LEAM Technologies enables high-performance polymer additive manufacturing through its patented DEMEX (Directed Energy Material Extrusion) system, a process-integrated, LED-based thermal management module that turns temperature into a controllable process variable. DEMEX provides localized, feedback-controlled heating, cooling, and motion adjustment to ensure consistent layer welding and direct bonding to pre-consolidated thermoplastic composites. This allows additive production of structural, load-bearing parts using engineering and high-performance polymers such as polyamides, polycarbonate, PEEK, PEKK, PPSU, and even fluoropolymers. The technology can be retrofitted to any large-format extrusion system, making it easy for OEMs, research centers, and service providers to upgrade existing equipment. LEAM operates a Hardware-as-a-Service model with a base license and pay-per-use pricing, lowering adoption barriers and aligning cost with value creation. Based near Munich, LEAM is scaling through strategic OEM partnerships and first industrial applications in aerospace and oil & gas.
