VulcanForms raises $220M to scale US metal Additive Manufacturing
VulcanForms, based in Burlington, Massachusetts, USA, has announced the close of an oversubscribed $220 million financing round led by Eclipse and 1789 Capital, with participation from Washington Harbour, Fontinalis, IEQ Capital, and others. The financing is said to reflect growing demand for secure US domestic production of metal products and reinforces VulcanForms’ role in strengthening critical American advanced manufacturing capability.
“American manufacturers need a domestic alternative that can compete with global production at scale with superior speed and precision,” stated Kevin Kassekert, CEO of VulcanForms. “This financing enables us to meet surging demand and expand our role as a critical partner to companies rebuilding resilient domestic supply chains.”
The capital will support the expansion of VulcanForms’ fully integrated manufacturing facilities. These facilities combine advanced metal Additive Manufacturing technologies, precision machining, automation, inspection, and proprietary AI-enabled software into a single end-to-end workflow.
By compressing this supply chain into one integrated production system, VulcanForms reduces complexity, minimises waste, lowers total system cost, and delivers finished, high-performance products at production scale with consistent quality and fully integrated, secure supply chains.
Omeed Malik, President of 1789 Capital, commented, “1789 Capital is thrilled to support VulcanForms, a company revitalising America’s industrial strength and sharply reducing our dependence on foreign suppliers. By restoring high-skilled manufacturing jobs to American soil, VulcanForms is helping to drive the next great chapter of American prosperity.”
The investment also enables continued execution of the company’s technology roadmap and R&D programmes that strengthen the platform, advance the company’s materials portfolio, and support future capacity expansion.
VulcanForms has moved from development into scaled industrial production, while reportedly securing large multi-billion commercial programmes across numerous market verticals including medical devices, consumer products, aerospace, defence, and industrial segments.
“Rebuilding America’s industrial capacity requires bold engineering and the ability to manufacture at scale, and VulcanForms has proven it can deliver both. Their platform brings production of mission critical components back onshore with unmatched precision, speed, and reliability. Eclipse is proud to back a team that is delivering real industrial output today while shaping the future of American manufacturing,” concluded Greg Reichow, Partner at Eclipse.
