Sotimeco - About Us

One goal: to design DED machines that meet a real need and are technically and financially accessible

Sotimeco designs and manufactures DED metal additive manufacturing machines, engineered from the ground up for this process—never simply by adding a laser head to a conventional machine. This approach is the result of a collaboration among industry specialists, scientists, and engineers, all united by a shared conviction—to innovate without ever losing sight of real-world conditions, constraints, and customer expectations. This commitment extends beyond the machine itself: it encompasses an entire ecosystem of software and accessories designed for production use, as well as a constant focus on service quality and the satisfaction of every customer.

Our DED metal additive manufacturing technologies are patented and award-winning.

Our machines are production tools.
