Meltio M450: 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 Meltio M450 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.

What is it?

Meltio M450 is a wire-laser DED machine that deposits metal wire into a laser melt pool — no powder bed, no furnace route.

How does it print?

Laser wire DED

When might I consider it?

Consider it when wire-fed deposition, repair or feature addition fits your workflow and you are evaluating a used or channel machine against the current M600 generation.

LIST · 2026 OBSERVED $203,210.11 list (dealer, observed 2026-09-30)

A dealer displayed this list price with the product marked unavailable on the observation date — public historical price evidence, not a current OEM cash quote. A separate dealer financing illustration (€1,750/month over 60 months, exclusions and conditions apply) is a lease calculation, not a purchase price. No verified realized used 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.
