Metal 3D printing is increasingly transforming manufacturing, enabling companies to produce complex, high-strength components on demand. However, existing systems are often large, costly, and difficult to operate, limiting accessibility for smaller businesses and individual creators.
a-metal aims to change that. The startup’s compact and user-friendly metal 3D printing system is designed to make the technology accessible without compromising performance. The CHF 2.1 million seed round, led by QBIT Capital and supported by Zürcher Kantonalbank, Swissortholab, Kickfund, CADFEM, and experienced angel investors, will support industrialization, team growth, and professionalization of the company’s market presence.
Pre-series production is now underway, marking a key step toward bringing the technology to companies and individuals who see metal 3D printing as strategically important. To support its growth, a-metal is actively recruiting talent in customer support, operations, and software development. Interested parties are encouraged to get in touch to explore opportunities or partnerships.
By combining innovation with practicality, a-metal is set to access to metal 3D printing, making it an attainable tool for a wider range of users, from industrial teams to medical patient care.
The engineering startup won the last stage of Venture Kick in 2023. "Without Venture Kick, developing hardware would have been even harder. Winning their support helped us gain the trust of our first angel investors." highlighted Co-Founder and CEO Stephan Steiner.
