At Scrap Labs our mission is to empower builders and creators with the most advanced metal printing technology that optimizes both price and performance.
What we are building
A Radical New Metal Printing Platform
We are engineering a LPBF system that is scalable by design, reliable under pressure, and serious about cost.
No Binders, No Sintering No Mess
Just direct metal 3d printing with lasers. Metal powder in, metal parts out.
Compact
Ultra compact. Easy to carry and fits on the workbench in any shop or lab space.
Performance-first architecture
Thermal stability, laser control, and motion precision engineered together.
Radically affordable
At under $20k, we are building a cost model that works for individuals, makers, labs, schools, and manufacturing floors.
Designed for reliability
Precision sensing, smart calibration, and intuitive recovery workflows.
Open Community License
Source available, but to manufacture for sale or distribution you need an agreement.
Why it matters
Metal printing should be a capability, not a luxury.
Scrap Labs is demolishing the barrier to entry for metal additive manufacturing, so builders and makers can prototype, iterate, and deploy high-performance metal parts without six-figure systems.
Our broader vision is to help lay the technological foundation for making advanced manufacturing tools accessible anywhere, on Earth and off it, as a step toward enabling humanity to prosper and become a truly multi-planetary species.

Roadmap preview
From prototype to Launch
We are building aggressively with clear milestones, field feedback, and a disciplined hardware roadmap.
Proof of concept build delivered with prototype printing and core stack validation.
Alpha testers onboarded, early partners integrated, and the system hardened.
Beta testing scaled with broader field feedback and reliability validation.
Production launch completed. Initially shipping to the US.
