What does AML3D do and how does it make money?

The hint is in 3D.

AML3D Limited designs, manufactures and sells ARCEMY 3D printing modules that use the company’s patented Wire Additive Manufacturing (WAM) technology to print metal parts on demand. To produce these results, the company has combined welding science, robotics, metallurgy and software.

AML3D also provides contract manufacturing services to the marine, aerospace, oil and gas, defense, mining, and general manufacturing sectors in Europe, Singapore, Japan, and Australia.

According to AML3D, it is the only diversified large-scale WAM metal components provider in the Southern Hemisphere that can 3D print industrial scale components and finished parts. The company also claims that its technology is 75% faster, 80% less wasteful and saves 70% on costs compared to traditional metal fabrication processes.

The company earns revenue from contract manufacturing and sales of its ARCEMY 3D printing module. It reports all earnings in a single segment.

Is AML3D a profitable company?
