Titomic Limited, the world’s leading provider of cold spray solutions, announced that the Koninklijke Landmacht, the Royal Netherlands Army’s land branch, has purchased ten Titomic D523 Cold Spray Systems.
The order for 10 units of the D523 System, with a total sale value of EUR 772,000 (approximately AU$1.28 million), represents a significant milestone in Titomic’s defence sector expansion.
Titomic D523 Cold Spray Systems for Ukraine
Initially, the Royal Netherlands Army will send nine of the systems to Ukraine to support the country’s war effort. The Systems will allow for battle damage repair in the field as well as forward maintenance, improving battle readiness and mission capability. This order represents a significant revenue opportunity for Titomic and strengthens the company’s position as a major player in the global defence and aerospace sectors.
The D523’s capabilities are perfectly suited to the needs of the Koninklijke Landmacht, demonstrating Titomic’s ability to meet the demanding requirements of military applications.
The delivery of the D523 cold spray systems is expected to begin in the coming months, and Titomic looks forward to continuing its partnership with the Koninklijk Landmacht.
Titomic is also in commercial negotiations with a number of other armies and navies around the world, including the Australian Defence Force. These discussions follow several successful demonstrations in Australia that highlighted Titomic’s innovative cold spray solutions and their suitability for a wide range of military and defence operations.
“This order from the Royal Netherlands Army marks a pivotal moment for Titomic, showcasing our D523 System’s ability to provide versatile repair and maintenance solutions on a large scale and creating a significant revenue opportunity.”

“Our decision to invest in Titomic machines marks a definitive shift from theoretical exploration to practical implementation of additive manufacturing within our military. This move signifies our unwavering commitment to leveraging advanced capabilities in real-world applications. By providing these innovative technologies to Ukrainian forces, we demonstrate our trust in their ability to swiftly adopt and effectively utilise these tools to enhance military capabilities. This collaboration underscores our dedication to staying at the forefront of technological innovation and ensuring readiness for the challenges of modern warfare.”

The Dutch government has committed to the Ukraine cause and has provided assistance in a variety of ways, including funding for humanitarian aid, reconstruction, aid to war victims, and medicine and relief supplies.
