Matsuura LUMEX Avance-25: specs & public price evidence
Decision context / editorial guidance
Screen the application.
Then qualify the process.
Worth investigating if: your supplier can demonstrate the required alloy, geometry and finished-part specification on the quoted Matsuura LUMEX Avance-25 configuration.
Do not buy on this page alone: a published envelope or machine configuration does not establish repeatability, accepted-part cost or local support.
Editorial purchasing guidance, not a verified recommendation for a particular application.
Published geometry / not guaranteed part fit
Geometry needs interpretation. Use the original published specification below; no rectangular volume is inferred.

What is it?
Matsuura LUMEX Avance-25 is a hybrid machine that combines LPBF with in-process CNC milling, so milled features and machined surfaces are produced between deposition passes.
How does it print?
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF): a laser melts thin layers of metal powder to build a part.
When might I consider it?
Consider it when milled features, tool access or surface quality during the build matter — and price the milling tooling, service and generations, not just the envelope.
What public specs cannot tell you: finished-part speed, cost, quality or fit for your exact application.

Public price evidence
USED · 2026 OBSERVED €149,000 ex-VAT (owner ask, observed 2026-09-30)
An identifiable owner offer asks €149,000 negotiable ex-VAT; a separate 2015 listing reports 12,439 spindle hours. New machines are build-to-order with no public list price. A Canadian institutional procurement mirror describes an estimated CAD 550,000 package — unverified at the primary notice and including installation/tooling scope, so it is not published as a machine price.

What still needs a supplier answer
| Purchasing question | Evidence gap |
|---|---|
| All-in delivered machine price | Current quote required |
| Build time for your part | Not verified for your geometry |
| Alloy and parameters | Confirm the exact qualified combination |
| Application fit | Confirm tolerances, finishing, inspection and local support |
Source review dates identify when the cited material was reviewed. A source review is not a performance test; genuine third-party corroboration is identified separately.
Prepare a useful quote request
Send your exact alloy, dimensions, orientation, supports, inspection criteria and finishing route. Ask for usable build space and effective build time for that configuration. Include installation, training, service, software, gas supply and qualification in the delivered quote. Unverified fields on this page can be used as questions to confirm directly with the manufacturer before purchase.
