Overview

We seek to fulfill the promise of additive manufacturing (“AM”), also referred to as three-dimensional printing (“3D printing”), to deliver breakthroughs in performance, cost, and lead time in the production of high-value metal parts.

We produce a fully integrated hardware and software solution based on our proprietary laser powder bed fusion (“L-PBF”) technology, which greatly reduces and often eliminates the need for support structures. Our technology enables the production of highly complex, mission-critical parts that existing AM solutions cannot produce without the need for redesign or additional assembly.

Our L-PBF metal AM technology
is supporting active efforts and has multi-service interest across the Department of Defense enabling a range of critical needs, including
but not limited to, munitions and munition support components, hypersonic propulsion and thermal management systems, maritime surface
and subsurface components, aerospace propulsion, flight components, and leading-edge programs.

We also aim to enable our customers to build resilient supply chains for production parts across industries with a clear, reliable path from concept to production through our Rapid Production Solutions (“RPS”) offering. RPS utilizes our deep engineering expertise, cutting-edge technology and a fleet of Sapphire XC large
