Dubai, United Arab Emirates · April 2025

The Dubai-based additive manufacturing studio announces the full commercial launch of its Robotic Arm LfAM platform, enabling businesses to produce architectural models, interior design elements, and industrial components at previously unachievable scales.

Proto21 3D Printing LLC, one of the UAE's most technology-forward additive manufacturing studios, today announced the commercial availability of its expanded large format 3D printing services in Dubai, powered by a dedicated Robotic Arm platform capable of producing single-piece builds exceeding two metres in any axis. The announcement marks a significant milestone in the region's advanced manufacturing landscape, eliminating assembly seams and structural compromises that had previously limited the size of printable parts.
The platform, operating on Large-format Additive Manufacturing (LfAM) principles, is designed to serve architects, urban planners, interior designers, exhibition builders, and industrial engineers who require parts and assemblies that standard desktop or mid-frame printers simply cannot accommodate. By producing oversized geometries in a single uninterrupted session, Proto21 removes the logistical and structural penalties typically associated with bonding or bolting together multiple smaller prints.

Transforming Architecture, Interiors, and Industrial Applications
The new platform is already serving clients across three core verticals. In the architecture and real estate sector, it is producing full-scale 3D printed architectural models and building façade mockups with the geometric complexity that digital design files demand but traditional model-making workshops struggle to replicate. Developers presenting to government authorities and investors are finding that physically accurate, large-scale models drive faster approvals and more compelling stakeholder communications.
In the interior design and fit-out industry, the Robotic Arm platform opens the door to bespoke structural decorative elements — ceiling installations, sculptural wall panels, custom furniture components, and branded architectural features — that would previously have required expensive tooling or skilled hand-fabrication. For exhibition and events companies, the technology makes it viable to produce large display structures, signage forms, and immersive installation pieces on tight production timelines.

Industrial users benefit from the platform's ability to produce large tooling aids, jigs, and factory-floor fixtures in durable thermoplastics. This is particularly relevant for aerospace, marine, and heavy manufacturing clients who need custom support structures that are accurate, lightweight, and quick to replace.

"We built this capability specifically because our clients were hitting a ceiling — literally and figuratively. The Robotic Arm platform removes the size constraint from the conversation entirely, allowing the design to dictate the outcome rather than the machine."

Supported by a Full-Service Studio Ecosystem
The large-format service does not operate in isolation. Proto21's in-house team offers complete project support from CAD optimisation for additive manufacturing, through print production, to post-processing, priming, and paint finishing. For clients who arrive without a ready file, the studio's design team can develop geometry from sketches, reference images, or 3D scanning services of existing physical objects. This end-to-end capability — design, scan, print, finish — means clients receive a presentation-ready output rather than a raw printed form requiring additional vendor coordination.

Proto21's large-format offering is available to businesses across the UAE, with express project lanes available for exhibition deadlines, product launches, and development presentations requiring accelerated delivery. The studio invites architects, interior designers, industrial engineers, and event producers to consult with the team at proto21.ae.
