Euler Launches Free Real-Time Build Viewer for Metal Additive Manufacturing
Euler, the Icelandic software startup focused on applying artificial intelligence (AI) to improve fault detection in metal additive manufacturing (AM), has launched Euler Viewer, described as the industry’s first free real-time build viewer for metal AM operators.
Available at no cost and requiring no additional hardware installation, the platform enables operators to monitor metal 3D printing builds live and securely through a web browser.
Unlocking Previously Untapped Build Data
The launch addresses a long-standing challenge within metal laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) workflows. Although most modern LPBF systems capture high-resolution powder bed images after every layer during the build process, much of this data remains underutilized due to the lack of accessible visualization tools.
Each metal AM build can generate thousands of powder bed images, creating a detailed layer-by-layer record of production. When operators can access and review this data in real time, it becomes possible to identify process anomalies earlier, improve build quality oversight, reduce material waste, and make faster production decisions.
Improving Security and Remote Monitoring
Many AM operators currently depend on remote desktop software installed directly on machine control PCs to monitor builds remotely. However, this approach can introduce cybersecurity risks, particularly as metal AM systems are often connected to factory networks containing sensitive production data, proprietary designs, and regulated intellectual property.
Euler Viewer has been developed to eliminate these concerns by allowing operators to connect compatible metal 3D printers directly to the platform. Once connected, powder bed images are automatically streamed and stored during the build process, enabling secure real-time monitoring from any browser without relying on remote desktop access.
Enterprise-Grade Data Handling and Accessibility
Built using SOC 2 Type II security controls, Euler Viewer is designed to handle manufacturing data according to enterprise-grade cybersecurity standards. The platform enables users to navigate thousands of build layers through a dedicated interface, review completed builds in detail, and securely share access with colleagues using browser-based links to support collaboration across teams.
For facilities unable to connect machines directly to the platform, build image data can also be uploaded manually.
Euler says the software can be deployed within minutes, requires no additional hardware, and is compatible with the majority of LPBF systems currently in operation.
Pathway to AI-Driven Process Monitoring
Euler Viewer also serves as an entry point to the company’s broader AI-powered monitoring platform, which includes automated defect detection, predictive failure alerts, statistical process control, advanced visualization tools, and automated reporting capabilities.
Dr. Eyþór Rúnar Eiríksson, CEO and co-founder of Euler, said: “We keep seeing the same pattern at AM facilities around the world; thousands of powder bed images captured during every build, and many are not being used. Not because operators don’t care, but because there has never been a simple, dedicated tool to access them. Euler Viewer is our response to that — we believe this is a tool the industry should have always had, and one that should be easily accessible to every operator. By making it free and purpose-built, we are giving AM professionals a straightforward, secure way to actually view the data their machines already produce.”
The launch follows Euler’s €2 million seed funding round announced in November 2025, co-led by Frumtak Ventures and Kvanted. The company’s AI-driven monitoring technology leverages existing machine data to detect defects in real time, helping manufacturers reduce failed builds, improve process reliability, and increase production efficiency as industrial AM adoption continues to expand.
