Rosatom Enters Indian Market of Additive Manufacturing
The Fuel Division of Rosatom, which is developing the additive manufacturing business of the State Corporation, has successfully supplied the RusBeam 2800 industrial 3D printer to India. The equipment is based on Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing technology (EBAM) and it has been successfully launched and commissioned. The machine will be used to manufacture metal parts for India’s aerospace industry.
“The Indian customer’s choice of Rosatom’s technology underscores the global competitiveness and compliance of Russian solutions with the most stringent international standards. The contract was signed thanks to the victory in the international tender,” an official statement said.
“Rosatom is making a pivotal contribution to the strategic technological partnership between Russia and India. Following the December 2025 summit of our leaders, Vladimir Putin and Narendra Modi, their joint statement highlighted the prospects of cooperation in peaceful nuclear energy and space, including plans to deepen cooperation on non-energy nuclear applications and new non-nuclear products. We won this tender offering not only cutting-edge Russian hardware but also our technological expertise, materials, and service, all tailored to the customer’s requirements. We are already in discussions with our Indian partners regarding further supplies, joint R&D in additive technologies, as well as potential localization of equipment manufacturing in India,” said Alexey Likhachev, Director General of Rosatom.
The RusBeam 2800 is now India’s largest electron-beam wire deposition 3D printer operating under vacuum. The machine was custom-built for the Indian client and is operated with software developed by Rosatom. It can produce large-scale parts up to 2.8 meters in height and weighing up to four tones, including components with complex geometries. The system’s productivity is a key advantage: with a print speed of up to 50 mm/s, it can fabricate a 50 kg part within just five hours. The printer is compatible with a wide range of refractory and reactive materials, including titanium-, nickel-, and cobalt-chrome-based alloys.
Rosatom export proposal is based on comprehensive Russian additive manufacturing ecosystem – from proprietary hardware and software to materials, services and turnkey technology centers. This integrated approach will also underpin future cooperation with international partners.
