Our take
Velo3D is a metal additive manufacturing solution that is looking to overcome common difficulties in 3D printing, by helping customers print and manufacture parts without compromising quality.
The metal additive manufacturing industry is one that is relatively slow-moving, but Velo3D is breathing new life into the space. It has already experienced significant growth and high machine unit sales, standing out from competitors by offering an end-to-end process for customers in the aviation, power generation and energy industries.
With demand for its services increasing, Velo3D is looking to expand within Europe, targeting markets such as the UK, Germany, France and Italy. Its acquisition by Arrayed Additive in 2025 supports its expansion into new sectors, and a $11.5 million defense contract secured in 2026 makes sure its set up for success.
