WASP

WASP is an Italian company based in Massa Lombarda, near Ravenna, that designs and builds 3D printers and the systems around them. Its approach starts from 3D printing as a way to make local, low-cost production possible: machines that work with bio-plastics, clay, silicone and biocompatible materials, that mill wood and aluminium, and that let people run small productions of what they need.

The line-up runs from the Delta WASP 2040 Clay and the WASP 40100 LDM for ceramics to large-format pellet and concrete machines such as the WASP 3MT, plus the Crane WASP, released in 2018 as a collaborative system able to print houses. Hardware is paired with continuous feeding systems, the RIGENERA recycling station, a printing service, the WASP Academy training programme and a network of WASP Hubs.
