On-demand local manufacturing unlocked by ultra-fast volumetric 3D printing.

The Tough Tech problem we are solving

Manufacturers today are constrained by slow, tooling-intensive processes that make it hard to produce large, customized parts quickly and cost-effectively. Traditional 3D printing is either too small, too slow, or too limited in materials to meet demanding applications in sectors like aerospace, defense, medical, and footwear at production scale. MAV Unlimited is addressing the challenge of how and where products are made, enabling rapid, on-demand manufacturing that can deliver both economic and environmental benefits.

About our solution

MAV Unlimited has developed a large-format, volumetric additive manufacturing system that is up to 50x faster than the next fastest commercial 3D printer, cutting build times from hours to minutes. The platform can print a wide variety of materials and is designed to be less expensive than conventional additive methods, opening new possibilities for high-performance, customized parts across multiple industries. By transforming speed, scale, and flexibility, MAV’s technology lets partners shift more production closer to the point of need while improving both cost structure and sustainability.
