Titomic acquires cold spray specialist

Industrial 3D printing specialist Titomic Limited has acquired Netherlands-based cold spray technology company, Dycomet Europe.

Dycomet, established in 2006, makes low and medium pressure cold spray technology and also offers research and development, software development and the provision of servicing, spare parts and consumables for its systems. Its clients include Rolls-Royce, Mercedes, Airbus, Siemens, VW, and several universities.

“While Titomic focuses on high-pressure applications, Dycomet services the soft-end low and medium-pressure market,’ said Herbert Koeck, chief executive of Titomic. “With our complementary machinery and product portfolio, the combined expertise now available to the company will further accelerate the company’s growth into new markets.”

Dycomet’s founder and chief executive, Klaas Rozema, will become general manager of the renamed company, Titomic Europe.

“I will continue to lead the business in Europe, and I look forward to working with Herbert to bring the two companies together and ensure the synergies between the two businesses are fully harnessed,” said Rozema.
