Customer Success Story: Amiga Engineering
Amiga Engineering is a Victorian precision engineering business founded in 1988. As traditional engineering work plateaued, the company looked to 3D metal printing to diversify and grow.
Konica Minolta supplied two 3D Systems ProX DMP 320 printers with industry leading purity and material flexibility, letting Amiga work across materials like titanium and Inconel 718 on a single machine. The move made Amiga the first Australian manufacturer, and only private bureau, in 3D metal printing.
Konica Minolta was extremely present and helpful in all points pre, during, and post installation. It has been an active, beneficial partner who we continue to work with.
