Freeform, a startup founded by former SpaceX engineers, has raised $14 million from Nvidia and Boeing to advance their innovative metal 3D printing technology. The co-founders aim to simplify the complex and costly traditional methods of metal additive manufacturing by providing a printing service rather than selling machines. Their closed-loop process utilizes AI and real-time monitoring to ensure quality and speed, addressing industry shortcomings. Freeform targets sectors like aerospace and automotive, planning to enhance their capabilities and hire more staff with the new funding.
