Kingsbury, a prominent supplier of CNC machining solutions in the UK, has joined forces with Additure, its specialist additive manufacturing division, and ATLIX, the newly independent metal 3D-printing brand formerly operating under TRUMPF Additive Manufacturing. The three organisations have formalised a strategic agreement that appoints Kingsbury as the sole distributor of ATLIX’s equipment and services in the United Kingdom, Ireland and the GCC markets.

Beginning January 2026, Additure will oversee end-to-end operations for ATLIX’s advanced metal additive-manufacturing systems within these regions. This includes sales, machine installation, technical support, maintenance and full lifecycle service.

The collaboration represents a major step for both sides. ATLIX gains a strengthened sales channel and deeper market access in high-priority territories, while Kingsbury expands its additive-manufacturing offering by integrating a globally supported, high-performance metal printing platform into its portfolio.

“We are joining hands with Additure and Kingsbury to bring our industrial-grade additive-manufacturing technology to more customers in these markets. Our shared focus is on delivering strong support, forward-thinking solutions, and enabling our users to scale their operations with confidence.” Marino Ferrarese, Head of Sales & Marketing, ATLIX.

“From the outset, we were drawn to ATLIX due to its heritage, technical depth and renewed momentum within the sector. Its machine range has the breadth and capability to serve nearly every major industry, and we are eager to advance the wider industrial uptake of additive manufacturing with both existing and new clients.” Ian Brooks, Technical Director, Additure.

ATLIX is a newly independent metal additive-manufacturing brand that evolved from the additive division of TRUMPF, bringing decades of engineering know-how and technological development into its next chapter. The company offers a portfolio of industrial-grade 3D metal-printing systems designed for demanding applications, from high-strength components to complex geometries that are difficult to achieve through traditional manufacturing. Backed by global experience and a strong innovation culture, ATLIX aims to expand the industrial adoption of metal additive manufacturing by delivering reliable, scalable and production-ready solutions to manufacturers worldwide.

Kingsbury is one of the United Kingdom’s most established suppliers of precision CNC machine tools, representing leading global brands and delivering engineering solutions to industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy and medical technology. With a heritage built on technical excellence, dependable service and long-standing customer relationships, the company has expanded its capabilities to include additive manufacturing through Additure.
