Business project
Since its establishment MET Company has been evaluating the possibility of investing in additive manufacturing technologies. Following a year of in-depth market analyses and the study of emerging technologies, it has decided to invest in the technology of Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) or the selective laser fusion of metal powder for the small-batch production of objects in metal or metal alloys.
Technical content
Recent technological improvements in laser power and the development of metal powder mixes that correspond to the most widely used metal alloys in the industry have enabled the fine-tuning of direct metal laser sintering and the rapid production, with additive technology, of metal prototypes, samples and pre-series production with precision levels in the order of a few hundredths of a millimeter and mechanical characteristics that are comparable and even superior to traditional materials.
Final outlet market and products
It is believed that the timely introduction of this production system in Italy would meet a demand that is currently not already met. The market, already commercially penetrated by MET Company, is potentially the entire industry that demands components or products in metal. Above all: the biomedical and aerospace industry that offer double-digit marginality and growth rates (Wohlers report 2011) but also the automotive, racing, energy, engineering, bikes, sporting accessories and fashion&luxury goods industries.
Financial data
The estimated need for cash for the start-up of the company, resulting primarily from the acquisition of two plants, and the implementation of the strategic growth plan in the first two years amounts to approximately one million euro.
Turnover: 1.64 million Euro (in the 5th year); EBITDA: 60.28% (in the 5th year). NPV: 3.36 Mil. Euro; IRR: 108%;
