Pint was born in 2021 out of research work carried out at the LEM3 laboratory in Metz (Laboratoire d'Etude des Microstructures et de Mécanique des Matériaux), which we set out to develop. We can thus be described as an industrial start-up. Today, we're a team of four, and we'll be generating our first sales by the end of the 2023 financial year. For the time being, we're hosted by the laboratory, with the intention of growing so as to move into dedicated premises with our own equipment within two years. 

We are active in metal 3D printing. This enables us to produce mechanical parts in the widest possible range of shapes: 3D printing pushes back the boundaries of geometry! What's more, the know-how we've developed from our initial research enables us to perfect specific alloys, based in particular on titanium, steel, aluminum and copper. This enables us to manufacture parts with specific characteristics, such as strength, rigidity or deformation under the effect of heat.  

We use a laser melting process on a powder bed that is beginning to develop, and we are thus contributing to its deployment and democratization. In principle, our solutions are aimed at all types of industry, so there's nothing exclusive about them. In fact, for the time being, we have established ourselves commercially in the transport, medical and space sectors in particular. 

We discovered Be 4.0 - Industries of the Future as visitors to the 2022 edition. We were attracted by its regional format, neither too large to be "diluted" in the aisles and stands, nor too small to remain anecdotal. We also noted with interest the presence of both industrial companies and others with close ties to the world of innovation, and felt that the combination of these profiles on a single site made sense. Be 5.0 2023 looks set to be a promising event for capturing the attention of regional industry, one of our priority targets, among a clientele we're beginning to attract from all over France and the rest of Europe.
