With Fastech's reputation being founded upon developing engineered solutions to complex supply requirements, innovative processing of materials and our ability to consistently meet challenging lead times. Based in Danville Virginia, FasTech was established in 2018 to provide cutting edge metal additive 3D printing, using the first Gefertec 3D metal printing machines in the U.S. Three years on, we

now also have a range of state-of-the art machining centers to complete the production process on site, plus the latest equipment for reverse engineering.

Defense readiness is not just a procurement challenge. It is a manufacturing one.

When platforms need parts and the supply chain cannot deliver fast enough, lead time becomes mission risk. Fastech's Gefertec arc605 machines, running WAAM technology, enable the efficient fabrication of large metal components with reduced waste, faster production times, and a significant cost advantage over traditional manufacturing methods. Paired with Laser Wire DED for precision work, full machining capability, and on-site inspection, Fastech handles the entire journey from design to qualified component.

Find us at the USA Partnership Pavilion, hosted by VEDP, Booth #2125.

A big welcome to Arash Shadravan from Gefertec, who visited us at Fastech LLC in Danville for a proper look around the shopfloor.

Arash spent time with both of our arc605 wire arc additive manufacturing machines currently running in production, and the Siemens resonator ring he's holding in the photo is a great example of the complex, precision components we're delivering with this technology.

It was a great visit, with strong conversations and a clear sense of where we're heading together as partners. Thanks for the trip, Arash. We're looking forward to what comes next.

Fastech Director of Business Development Yash Bandari recently paid a visit to Framatome, a global leader in nuclear energy solutions operating across more than 20 countries.

The conversation centred on a challenge the whole industry is grappling with: lead times. We explored how Fastech’s in-house additive manufacturing and advanced manufacturing processes could help bring that timeline down, opening up real opportunities for collaboration on future projects.

A genuine thank you to Daryl Whipkey for making the time and for such a productive visit. Exciting things ahead.

Fastech will be attending LSAAT 2026, the Large Scale Additive Action Team annual meeting, taking place on 11 June 2026 at the DCU Center in Worcester, MA.

Our Director of Business Development, Yash Bandari, will be there on the day, and we would love to connect with anyone working in large-scale additive manufacturing, defence, or advanced manufacturing programmes.

Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing and Laser Wire DED are at the heart of what Fastech does, and they are entirely in-house. So is our precision subtractive machining and inspection capability. That means we can take a programme from early design through near-net-shape deposition, finish machining, component inspection, and full qualification of real use parts, without breaking the chain. Everything under one roof, with the traceability and accountability that serious programmes demand.

If you are attending LSAAT 2026, drop us a message or reach out to Yash directly. We look forward to seeing you there.

Fastech had a great day at the Naval Submarine League Industry Engagement Day in Reston, VA, and Yash Bandari was there representing the team.

The event brought together some impressive names. Vice Admiral Rob Gaucher opened the day with Commander’s Intent, laying out what the submarine programme needs from industry right now. That was followed by director-level presentations from three Rear Admirals covering new authorities, organisational direction, and the key challenges facing submarine production.

One of the afternoon panels focused specifically on driving adoption of advanced manufacturing for producibility and speed, featuring leaders from across the manufacturing and defence sectors. It was a panel built for the exact conversation Fastech is part of every day.

Our capability covers the full journey: WAAM, laser wire directed energy deposition, subtractive machining, and in-house inspection, all under one roof. For the submarine industrial base, that kind of integrated, end-to-end manufacturing is exactly what the moment calls for.

Yash came away with great conversations and connections that we’re looking forward to building on. If you were at the event, we’d love to hear from you.

Fastech is heading to the Naval Submarine League Industry Engagement Day on 9 June 2026 in Reston, VA, and we could not be more aligned with what is on the agenda.

Panel III at the event focuses specifically on driving adoption of advanced manufacturing for producibility and speed across submarine production. That is exactly what Fastech does every day.

Our facility combines WAAM, laser wire directed energy deposition, subtractive machining, and full in-house inspection, giving us the ability to take a part from raw deposition to a finished, inspected component without leaving the building. For critical industries where quality, traceability, and reliability are non-negotiable, that integrated capability matters.

Yash Bandari will be representing Fastech at the event. If you are going to be there, please do connect with him. We would love to meet the people working to strengthen the submarine industrial base and talk about what advanced manufacturing can deliver for your programme.

Looking forward to connecting with you all.

What a day at the ATDM Maritime Workforce Forum yesterday in Danville.

The engagement with additive manufacturing throughout the event was fantastic to be part of. It's clear that AM is gaining more and more ground in the defense sector, and the conversations we had yesterday reflected exactly that. Real questions, real interest, and real appetite for what these capabilities can deliver in high-integrity applications.

For Fastech, as part of the Danville ecosystem alongside IALR, CMA, and ATDM, it was a proud day. This community is doing important work, and yesterday showed just how much attention it's attracting.

A sincere thank you to the ATDM team for organising such a well-run forum, and to every person who stopped by, joined a conversation, or shared what they're working on. It means a great deal.

If you'd like to explore how Fastech's additive manufacturing capabilities can support your defense programs, please don't hesitate to reach out. We'd love to continue the conversation.

As we head into the final hours of The TCT Group 3Sixty, it's a good opportunity to reflect on what has been a fantastic week.

We've had the chance to meet manufacturers, engineers, researchers, and industry leaders from across the UK and beyond. The conversations have reinforced what many of us already see happening across the sector: additive manufacturing is continuing to gain momentum as a practical solution for production, repair, and supply chain challenges.

There has been strong interest in the components on display, printed with WAAM and LWDED powered by Meltio, particularly applications linked to critical industries and defence, as well as discussions around Project TAMPA and the role advanced manufacturing technologies can play in strengthening industrial capability.

A big thank you to everyone who has stopped by the stand, attended Alan Pearce's presentation, or taken the time to share their challenges and ideas.

There's still time to visit us before the show closes.

Stop by Stand GG36 and let's continue the conversation.

It's the final day of TCT 3Sixty, and the discussions over the past two days have highlighted just how far additive manufacturing has come.

What was once viewed as a future technology is now delivering real-world results across critical industries. At Stand GG36, we're showcasing components produced for sectors including energy and defence, demonstrating how WAAM and Laser Wire DED technologies are helping solve complex manufacturing challenges at scale.

If you're attending today, we'd be delighted to welcome you to the stand to discuss current applications, project opportunities, and the future of advanced manufacturing.

Don't miss Alan Pearce's presentation at the SUBCON Innovation Zone:
