Uses AI-controlled metal 3D printing to produce precision industrial parts at scale for aerospace, defense, and energy customers.
Freeform develops AI-native manufacturing systems, deploying autonomous metal 3D printing factories. These systems tightly integrate advanced software, specialized hardware, and physics models to produce complex metal components. Their technical approach combines high-performance computing with real-time process control, enabling software-defined additive manufacturing for industrial applications.
Co-founded by Erik Palitsch and Thomas Ronacher, both former SpaceX engineers, the company emerged from recognizing the critical need for more efficient, scalable manufacturing. They applied an AI-driven, autonomous paradigm to metal 3D printing, leveraging their aerospace backgrounds to redefine industrial production.
Freeform's product serves industries demanding precision metal parts, aiming to unlock advanced manufacturing for on-demand production. The company envisions a future with globally distributed, autonomous 3D printing facilities, transforming traditional supply chains and enabling agile component production via its AI-native platform.
Freeform has raised $126.0M across 3 funding rounds.
