Rapid Fusion Ltd
UK maker of large-format additive manufacturing systems including robotic AM cells, gantry platforms and pellet extruders for industrial 3D printing.
Rapid Fusion is a UK company specialising in large-format additive manufacturing (LFAM) systems, founded in 2023 to address a market gap identified by EVO 3D Limited. The company designs and manufactures modular 3D printing platforms, additive manufacturing modules, robotic AM cells, and pellet extruders for producing large polymer components and tooling.
Its product line includes the Apollo, Zeus, Medusa and Cerberus systems, the PE320 pellet extruder, and an additive upgrade kit that converts industrial robot arms or gantry systems into LFAM machines. The Medusa is a UK-built large-format hybrid 3D printer combining pellet extrusion, filament extrusion and CNC machining in a single gantry platform, being productionised with partner Applied Automation at a facility in Plymouth. Rapid Fusion supplies software for its systems, including its Epicurus UI, and integrates third-party slicing and toolpath software such as AiBuild and ADAXIS. The company serves aerospace and defence, automotive, construction, energy, marine, and art and design markets, and offers services covering tooling and moulds, rapid prototyping, design optimisation, and a materials library. It is backed by £756K in match funding from Innovate UK Smart grants and has worked with industry partners including Rolls-Royce, Baker Hughes and the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland. Rapid Fusion is headquartered at Skypark near Exeter, Devon, and sells through a reseller network across the UK and internationally.
The company positions its LFAM technology as a faster, lower-cost alternative to traditional manufacturing for large-scale moulds, tooling and end-use parts, and provides a production cost calculator and knowledge centre for customers.
