Dyndrite integrates with EOS Open Architecture
To unlock full vector-level toolpath control, including advanced nLIGHT AFX beam-shaping
Dyndrite, a provider of industrial software for AM, has integrated its flagship product, Dyndrite LPBF Pro, with EOS’ Open Architecture via the EOS Toolpath API. This integration provides EOS Build Plan users unprecedented vector-level control for parameter optimization on EOS metal platforms (EOS M 290, EOS M 290 1kW, EOS M 300-4, EOS M 400, EOS M 400-4, AMCM M 290 FLX, AMCM M 450 FLX), including fully leveraging productivity multipliers such as nLIGHT AFX lasers. As an official member of the EOS Developer Network (EDN), Dyndrite receives support from EOS to accelerate its product development.
“Accessibility, quality, and performance are hallmarks of EOS, and attributes that our customers value and expect,” said Joachim Zettler, CTO of EOS. “With the EOS Build Plan, the integration of Dyndrite LPBF Pro, and nLIGHT’s advanced laser technology, customers now gain all three in one step: continuous access to innovations that unlock new ways to boost quality, increase productivity, and strengthen their competitive edge.”
Dyndrite LPBF Pro leverages the EOS Toolpath API to provide engineers with vector-level control over laser speeds, feeds, and exposure strategies on EOS platforms. Integrated into modern EOS systems, the nLIGHT AFX beam-shaping laser extends beyond traditional Gaussian or Top Hat modes by offering dynamic ‘ring’ profiles that improve melt-pool stability and control at higher production speeds. With LPBF Pro, EOS users, whether on legacy laser systems or those equipped with nLIGHT, gain direct access to additional powerful new capabilities for toolpath optimization, thermal management, and exposure development. These tools enable engineers to fine-tune parameters for thin walls, overhangs, and bulk geometries within a single build, while automating repeatable workflows that scale seamlessly from R&D to full serial production. Dyndrite LPBF Pro, when combined with the EOS Build Plan, gives users continuous access to advanced exposure-development tools and a programmatic environment for automating qualification, reducing variability, and optimizing processes to meet unique and demanding geometry requirements.
The combined impact of EOS’ open architecture, nLIGHT’s beam shaping technology, and Dyndrite LPBF Pro has been demonstrated by Ursa Major, a leader in propulsion systems. Together, these technologies improved part quality, reduced scrap, and sped up print times by a factor of two to three at the same quality level compared with conventional Gaussian spots.
“By working with EOS, nLIGHT, and Ursa Major, we’ve proven that when you give engineers full control, everyone benefits, especially the customer,” said Harshil Goel, Founder and CEO of Dyndrite. “This is about empowering users’ creativity and unlocking the full potential of their machines for their specific use cases.”
“EOS has been a great supporter of our mission. By applying Dyndrite LPBF Pro through EOS’ open architecture, we’re able to push both EOS and nLIGHT beam shaping technology to the max,” said Thomas Pomorski, Director of Additive Manufacturing at Ursa Major. “The results are tangible – we’re qualifying faster, producing more efficiently, and achieving quality levels we couldn’t reach before. This is just the beginning.”
“The results speak for themselves,” said Robert Martinsen, Chief Technology Officer of nLIGHT. “Our AFX beam shaping light engine technology unlocks major advances in LPBF, and with Dyndrite tools providing full software access, the laser capabilities can now be tailored and leveraged without compromise by FLX machine users. Together with our partners, we are setting a new benchmark for scalable, cost-effective industrial additive manufacturing.”
The EOS Build Plan makes it possible, offering continuous access to EOSPRINT, pre-tested material sets, real-time machine data via EOS Hub, new third-party applications, and expert training through Additive Minds Academy – transforming costs from CAPEX to OPEX while ensuring customers always have the latest innovations. The EOS Developer Network (EDN) helps software developers to accelerate their product development with the powerful and open APIs of EOS software.
