NAMI Secures GAMI Military Manufacturing License in Saudi Arabia, Signaling the Start of the Middle East AM Powder Market

On August 3, 2026, NAMI (National Additive Manufacturing & Innovation), a joint venture between 3D Systems and Saudi Dussur, received certification from Saudi Arabia's General Authority for Military Industries (GAMI), becoming the first AM company in the country qualified for military manufacturing. NAMI will produce 3D-printed military components locally, directly supporting the defense localization goals of Vision 2030. 3D Systems' metal AM business posted double-digit growth in Q2, and the GAMI certification further unlocks the Middle Eastern defense market. This marks the region's first step from zero to one in military AM, driving regional demand for aerospace-grade powders such as Ti64, IN718, and CoCrMo. Saudi Vision 2030 targets over 50% localization of military manufacturing, and NAMI, as 3D Systems' exclusive JV in the region, is poised to become a major consumer of AM powders in the Middle East. Industry significance: The Middle East is one of the largest arms procurement markets globally, yet AM powder demand has been nearly nonexistent. NAMI's GAMI certification signals the region's official entry into metal AM-based defense manufacturing. Dussur, backed by Saudi sovereign wealth, provides long-term capital and order security, creating a bipolar landscape alongside the U.S. military AM ecosystem. For powder buyers, the Middle Eastern defense powder market is starting from scratch, offering first-mover suppliers the chance to secure exclusive supply agreements. Ti64 and IN718 are the preferred grades for defense applications, and suppliers with AS9100/NADCAP certifications will benefit the most. Monitor 3D Systems' localization needs across its powder supply chain.

COSL Issues Tender for Metal 3D Printing SLM Systems — Industrial-Grade AM Procurement for Downhole Tool R&D

On August 4, 2026, China Oilfield Services Limited (COSL, Oilfield Production Division) issued a procurement tender for metal 3D printing system equipment (Project No.: 26-CNCCC-HW-GK-3123), intended for the R&D of key completion tools for SAGD balanced injection-production in heavy oil thermal recovery — specifically the fabrication of critical tools such as FCD valves with complex flow channels. The tender requires laser powder bed fusion (SLM) technology, with a delivery lead time of 180 days. Only direct bids from manufacturers are accepted (agents and traders are not eligible). Bidders must hold ISO9001, ISO14001, and ISO45001 certifications and have at least one supply track record of metal 3D printing systems since 2023. Background: Chinese oil majors have previously ventured into additive manufacturing — PetroChina successfully trial-produced an ultra-large SLM logging tool probe in 2021, and in 2026, PetroChina's Kunlun Capital made a sole multi-hundred-million-yuan equity investment in Zhongke Yuchen to bolster AM capabilities. COSL's dedicated industrial-grade metal SLM tender for production-oriented R&D remains rare among petroleum central enterprises, signaling the substantive penetration of additive manufacturing from aerospace/medical into the oil & gas drilling and completion sector. Industry significance: The oil & gas sector represents a blue ocean market for AM. Downhole tools operate under extreme conditions (high temperature, high pressure, corrosive media), and conventional manufacturing struggles with complex flow channels — SLM is a natural fit. As the largest oilfield services provider under CNOOC, COSL's pioneering procurement carries strong supply-chain demonstration effects, and oilfield services subsidiaries under PetroChina and Sinopec may follow suit. Value for powder suppliers: Oil & gas completion tools open a new downstream market for IN718, IN625, and 17-4PH powders. Powder demand in the oil & gas industry features concentrated grades (dominated by nickel-based alloys), large volumes, but lengthy certification cycles — suppliers that complete oilfield service customer certifications early will secure a first-mover advantage.

Hiroshima University Develops Hot-Wire Laser WC-Co Tungsten Carbide Coating with Hardness Exceeding 1400 HV

On August 1, 2026, a research team at Hiroshima University unveiled a hot-wire laser cladding technology for depositing WC-Co tungsten carbide coatings, achieving a hardness exceeding 1400 HV—comparable to conventional cemented carbides and significantly higher than standard laser-clad WC-Co coatings (around 1100 HV)—while also delivering more uniform WC particle distribution. The approach combines a heated wire (which preheats the substrate to reduce residual stress) with laser cladding (for precise energy control), addressing the long-standing issue of cracking in WC-Co deposition. WC-Co coatings are essential wear-resistant materials for molds, cutting tools, and mining machinery, representing a multi-billion-dollar global market. Industry significance: surpassing 1400 HV in WC-Co coating hardness marks the first time AM-produced coatings have matched the performance of traditional sintered cemented carbides. The hot-wire-assisted method resolves the persistent cracking problem in laser cladding of hard materials, opening a viable technical pathway for transitioning WC-Co from sintering to additive manufacturing. For powder buyers, if this technology scales from lab to production, it would generate new demand for spherical WC-Co powder (used in LPBF). While the current WC-Co powder market is niche, its high unit price ($80–150/kg) means that a technological breakthrough could substantially drive demand growth.
