Press Releases - XJet Appoints 3D-Werk Black Forest GmbH as Value-Added Reseller, Strengthening Manufacturing Ecosystem in Germany

Rehovot, Israel – June 4, 2026

XJet today announced a strategic collaboration with 3D-Werk Black Forest GmbH, giving manufacturers in Germany a new route to evaluate and adopt XJet’s ceramic and metal NanoParticle Jetting™ technology through a partner with deep application expertise, hands-on demonstration capability, and end-to-end customer support.

3D-Werk brings more than 20 years of additive manufacturing (AM) experience to the partnership and will serve as a Value-Added Reseller (VAR) for XJet’s Carmel system family. It will also introduce XJet technology to its Experience Center, giving manufacturers access to the systems through southern Germany’s leading competence center for AM.

XJet has been active in the German market for a number of years, with an established customer base and extensive network in the region. The appointment of 3D-Werk as a VAR marks a strategic step to deepen that presence, pairing XJet’s unique, differentiated technology with a partner whose consultative depth, multi-technology portfolio, and industry reputation are unmatched in the German AM landscape.

As a Value-Added Reseller, 3D-Werk will represent XJet’s full Carmel system lineup – not as a standalone hardware, software and consumables supplier, but as part of an integrated solution that includes configuration, application development, workflow guidance, training, and ongoing support. This solution-oriented customer service model reflects 3D-Werk’s consultative approach and ensures manufacturers adopting premium ceramic and metal NPJ systems have the expert guidance needed to identify the right applications, accelerate adoption, and realise the full value of the technology.

3D-Werk operates across three complementary business pillars: machine and material sales across all major AM technologies for metal and polymer; a parts production service spanning prototyping, small-series, and serial production with full post-processing capability; and an Experience Center where customers can evaluate every technology and process under operational conditions prior to committing to a purchase. This infrastructure makes 3D-Werk Black Forest uniquely positioned to give customers from the most demanding industry sectors a practical route from technology comparison and application validation through to production planning and long-term support.

By adding XJet to its multi-technology portfolio, 3D-Werk extends its capabilities into a more specialised class of industrial additive manufacturing. XJet NPJ technology opens manufacturing possibilities for parts and assemblies that have been too difficult, uneconomical, or impractical to produce using conventional manufacturing or other additive processes – addressing a well-defined gap in the market. For customers in defence and aerospace, medical devices, and precision industrial applications and segments that require more sophisticated guidance, the collaboration provides access to a specialised ceramic and metal AM capability backed by the application knowledge, process expertise, and technical guidance that 3D-Werk Black Forest has built over two decades.

“3D-Werk has spent years building the expertise, the facilities, and the customer trust to help German industry make genuinely informed decisions about needed migration of production to additive manufacturing. XJet’s NPJ technology represents something we have not been able to offer before – a path to manufacturing complex, high-performance parts that were simply out of reach previously. Adding the Carmel system family to our portfolio and to our Experience Center gives our customers access to a new category of manufacturing capability, and gives us the strongest possible argument for moving upmarket into the most technically demanding applications in Germany,” says Gerhard Duda, CEO, 3D-Werk Black Forest GmbH.

Gilad Gans, Chief Business Officer at XJet adds, “Germany is one of the most important markets for industrial additive manufacturing in the world, and we have been building our presence here for years. Appointing 3D-Werk as our VAR is the obvious next step – a competence center with accumulated experience, a multi-technology portfolio, and a genuine understanding of what established industrial buyers need. This is not a distribution agreement. It is a strategic partnership that puts XJet’s Carmel system family in the hands of exactly the kind of trusted advisor our technology requires.”

As part of the collaboration, XJet is a NEXT3D Platinum Sponsor – the annual 3D technology summit hosted by 3D-Werk Black Forest on June 9–10, showcasing its full technology portfolio. XJet will be joined by CeramTec, a customer and leading manufacturer of advanced ceramics, to present insights and takeaways of high-performance ceramic additive manufacturing.
