DEEP Manufacturing to Open 50,000 Sq. Ft. WAAM Facility in Houston
I’m a big fan of wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM), in large part because it’s not that much of a departure from how arc welding already works. It’s a technology…
Sintavia Taps NVIDIA Blackwell for AI-Driven Additive Manufacturing Pipeline
Investors have become increasingly anxious about the sustainability of NVIDIA‘s growth trajectory, which is a rather natural outcome when a stock goes up infinity percent or so over the course…
Please Localize Your Supply Chains
Resilience is starting to feel like the only economic metric that matters, which is noteworthy, for one, because there is no defined metric that I know of that actually measures…
Everything is Connected: Cisco’s Samuel Pasquier Explains the Relevance of the IIoT Revolution to AM’s Growth Trajectory
On its own, additive manufacturing (AM) may not need a new round of record-setting investment in order to move to new heights of scalability (whether or not any investors would…
XTPL Sells First ODRA System to Silicon Valley Semiconductor Packaging Client
One prerequisite for success in additive manufacturing (AM) is the establishment of a proven system for converting initial sales used as tech validation into future sales of higher-value hardware that’s…
Ursa Major, AFRL Show AM’s Role in Future Deterrence Through Draper Test Flight
The war in Iran is only about two weeks old, but countless lessons — and warnings — have already emerged for militaries across the planet and the economy in general….
AM Demand Signals: the Semicap Insurrection
The longer that the US-Israel war on Iran continues, the more that the discourse surrounding the war will start to absorb strategic tensions between the West and China surrounding Taiwan,…
Pete Pharma Deal with Atrium24 Signals Path for Broader 3D Printed Drug Commercialization
While I would guess we’re still probably at least several years away from 3D printed drugs being a commonplace reality, the growing number of companies with proprietary additive manufacturing (AM)…
Rocket Lab & Aussie Startup Hypersonix Team Up for DIU-Backed, 3D Printed Hypersonic Testbed Trial
Additive Manufacturing (AM) Research just published its latest study, “AM Applications Analysis: Parts Produced 2025-2034,” which AM Research SVP Scott Dunham said includes by far the consultancy’s largest data package…
U.S. Marines Save Hundreds of Thousands with 3D Printed Antenna Mast
Recently, I wrote about an article by Col. Michael Mai, Chief of the US Army Working Capital Fund, in which he argued that the Army is “mispricing readiness” and that…
With ARPA-E Backing, HRL Laboratories Advances 3D Printed Cooling for More Efficient Data Centers
In the report “AM for Data Centers: a 3D Printing Market Opportunity” that I wrote last year for Additive Manufacturing Research (AMR), I referenced Theodore Maiman, the man credited with…
Cisco Report Finds Cybersecurity and Networks Determine AI Growth in Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a market in-itself. Still, more broadly, it can be viewed as one component of a shift in the productive economy towards interconnection by the Industrial Internet…
DOE Backs DMG Mori AI Tool to Speed Qualification of 3D Printed Parts
Since 2015, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded projects that leverage the high-performance computing (HPC) capabilities of the U.S. national laboratories to optimize manufacturing processes. The High-Performance Computing…
SPEE3D Continues to Dominate in Metal AM Innovation with Tennessee Army National Guard
The US Army’s additive manufacturing (AM) capabilities have taken some time to catch up to those of the Air Force and Navy, but the catch-up phase now seems to be…
Melotte Partners with amsight and Additive Center to Reduce CT Scanning for 3D Printed Semicap Parts
The first report for Additive Manufacturing Research (AMR) that I wrote solo was about the AM market opportunity in semiconductor capital equipment (semicap) components. Published in early 2024, the report…
6K Additive Lands Long-Term Nickel-Alloy Powders Supply Agreement with Siemens Energy
We’ve still got a month left in Q1, but I’ve already come back to the theme of the role of additive manufacturing (AM) in the ‘sustainability-as-security’ thesis — a topic…
BigRep Expands into the Auto Aftermarket Through SEMA’s 6,000-Member Network

XTPL’s 3D Printed Advanced Packaging Solution Lands the Company a Strategic Partnership with Leading Semicap OEM
Chip packaging refers to all parts of a semiconductor device aside from the die (the “chip”) itself. As this IBM explainer nicely puts it, “In a nutshell, chip packaging provides…
Australian Researchers Develop Accelerator-Free Underwater 3D Concrete Printing System
Infrastructure projects are just as important as housing to the additive construction (AC) market segment, and structures used for underwater applications like coastal resilience have steadily become one of the…
Waiting Has a Cost: the True Value of Additive Manufacturing
One of my favorite expressions is “Hurry up and wait,” because it perfectly captures one of my least favorite scenarios to have to live through. You rush to get ready…
The Real World Impact of Simulated Parts: Why Novineer and Stratasys Partnered on Performance Simulation for FDM
If one of the primary advantages of additive manufacturing (AM) is that it’s “digitally-native,” then the hardware will ultimately only be as good as the software guiding the process. That…
APES Partners with Great Lakes Semiconductor to Scale Advanced, Additive Chip Packaging
Terminologically, additively manufactured electronics (AME) occupies similar space in the realm of tiny components that additive construction (AC) occupies when it comes to large components: it’s a single phrase that…
AMS 2026: The Gift of a Good Strategy
