Kaak Group (K3D)
Dutch Kaak Group, a leading food tech company specialised in integrated automated bakery systems has been a partner in Additive Industries’ AddLab initiative from 2014 onwards. In 2016, Additive Industries announced that the Kaak Group becomes one of the first MetalFAB1 Beta customers. Already 9 months later after the delivery of the MetalFAB1 Beta system to the Kaak Group, Additive Industries has received a follow-up order for a 5-module 4-laser production series system. From 2019 onwards all the 3D printing activities were merged in the K3D company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Kaak group.
