Rosatom’s Additive Technologies business unit presented its latest industrial 3D printing achievements at the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum. From October 7 to 10, visitors to Rosatom’s booth at the EXPOFORUM Convention and Exhibition Centre could see parts produced on the company’s additive manufacturing equipment, along with a complete 3D printing solution for the oil and gas industry.
A key part of the program was Rosatom’s presentation of its full 3D printing offering for the oil and gas industry. The company provides the complete cycle of additive manufacturing services — from designing and producing 3D printers, materials, and software to providing service support, staff training, and setting up turnkey Additive Technologies Centers on-site.
“Our collaboration goes far beyond selling equipment — we provide professional support at every stage of implementing new technologies,” said Ilya Kavelashvili, Director of Rosatom’s Additive Technologies business unit. “Within Rosatom, we have built a network of companies that develop software, manufacture 3D printers, and produce materials and parts. This setup allows us to manage the entire additive manufacturing cycle, from designing and producing equipment and materials to implementing 3D printing solutions, providing service support, and training personnel. By combining all these capabilities, we can provide industrial partners with reliable, high-tech equipment and services that help them achieve technological independence.”

Background
About Rosatom Additive Technologies
Additive manufacturing makes it possible to produce parts and components that are difficult or impossible to manufacture using traditional casting and machining methods. 3D printing helps reduce product weight, optimize material usage, and significantly shorten production lead times. Modern 3D printers allow flexible adjustment of process parameters to produce parts of various sizes and purposes — from single prototypes to serial production. Additively manufactured products are used across a wide range of industries, including nuclear and space technologies, energy, and medicine.
Rosatom’s Additive Technologies business unit offers a comprehensive, end-to-end solution — from the development of 3D printers, components, materials, and software to service support, personnel training, 3D printing services, and the establishment of turnkey additive manufacturing centers at customer sites.
Rosatom integrates the entire additive manufacturing cycle and provides industrial companies in strategic sectors with advanced, reliable equipment, materials, and professional services for implementing additive technologies. The company’s offering includes metal, polymer, and sand 3D printing, as well as 3D scanning, R&D, and technology audits to identify optimal strategies for adopting additive manufacturing in production.
