Additive manufacturing for components with the highest hygiene requirements.
1.0
We find the most technically and economically sensible solution for your task.
2.0
More freedom in design and manufacturing.
Additive manufacturing opens up new scope in development and production. Without tooling, with short lead times and great design freedom, it produces components that are functionally convincing and economically sensible.
We support you from design layout through to near-series production, creating function-integrated components tailored precisely to your application.

Trust is essential, particularly in sensitive industries. That is why we rely on traceable, documented and reproducible processes throughout the entire manufacturing chain - guided by the requirements of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).
A key element is the rigorous monitoring of our materials. We analyse every powder batch – including microscopy to detect foreign particles and assess grain size distribution. We also carry out melt tests to ensure material quality and processability.
During manufacturing, defined reference parts such as dimensional test pieces and membranes are used. These accompany every build job and allow continuous checking of dimensional accuracy, tolerances and leak tightness. This is complemented by six certified quality control stations and AI-supported automatic part measurement.
For complete traceability, we use an ERP system developed in-house. It allows the status of every single component to be tracked throughout the entire process.
Continuous improvement
We continuously develop our processes to offer our customers the highest quality over the long term.
Among other things, we have integrated AI-based part recognition and developed a new system for cleaning SLS components. Chemical smoothing is also an in-house development by LMD and has been established in industrial use for years.
Your advantage
- Documented batch traceability throughout the entire manufacturing process
- Regular powder and component analysis for consistent quality
- Validated reference parts to monitor function and leak tightness
- Consistently reproducible processes – from powder preparation to post-processing
- Migration tests by independent institutes for food contact applications
The result is manufacturing that is not only technically convincing, but also meets the highest quality requirements and regulatory standards.
