Kingsbury, one of the UK’s leading CNC machine tool suppliers, has announced a strategic alliance with
Additure, its additive manufacturing division, and ATLIX, the newly independent 3-D metal printing brand formerly known as
Trumpf Additive Manufacturing. Under the agreement, Kingsbury will become the exclusive dealer for ATLIX machines and services across the UK, Ireland, and the GCC region.
Starting in January 2026, Additure will assume full responsibility for sales, installation, service, and aftermarket support of ATLIX’s industrial 3-D metal printing systems in these territories. The partnership represents a significant step for both companies — ATLIX strengthens its market presence in key regions, while Kingsbury expands its additive manufacturing portfolio with a globally recognised brand.
Marino Ferrarese, head of sales and marketing at ATLIX said: “This strategic alliance aims to deliver exceptional service and innovative solutions to our valued customers in these regions. Together with Additure and Kingsbury, we are committed to fostering the growth of our customers through the adoption of our industrial-grade additive-manufacturing technology.”
Ian Brooks, technical director at Additure, added: “The history and experience of the organisation, together with a renewed energy and agility within the sector, are what first attracted us. The scope of ATLIX’s machine portfolio to serve every sector is something that, I believe, is unparalleled in the industry, and we look forward to growing the industrial adoption of AM together with our current and future clients.”
ATLIX, has launched under its new brand as it enters a new chapter of market agility and growth. Its flagship system, the TruPrint 5000, is designed for large-format, automated metal 3-D printing production. Kingsbury and Additure bring a proven track record as AM consultants and systems suppliers, offering customers a complete end-to-end solution.
From early 2026, customers in the UK, Ireland, and the GCC will be able to see ATLIX systems in operation through Open House and demonstration initiatives. They will also benefit from ATLIX’s industrial heritage and global machine tool portfolio combined with Kingsbury and Additure’s extensive industry knowledge and support. Additional bundled offerings, including machine purchase or leasing and process validation, will be announced in due course.
