Nexa3D Announces Investment from XYZ Printing and OurCrowd, Bringing Total Funding to $10 million
As part of agreement, XYZprinting to Manufacture and Sell Nexa3D’s
Revolutionary High-Speed Industrial Stereolithography Printer Worldwide
Ventura, California, 9 November 2017 – Nexa3D, maker of ultra-fast Stereolithography professional-grade 3D printers, today announced funding from strategic investor XYZprinting and equity crowdfunding platform OurCrowd. This investment brings the total funding in the company to $10M USD across various funding instruments.
Leading the round, XYZprinting, the world’s leading desktop 3D printer brand, will also manufacture and sell Nexa3D printers under the XYZ brand, as well as manufacture other white labeled products on behalf of Nexa3D for industry leaders in other verticals.
“This comprehensive strategic alliance is designed to accelerate market access to affordable industrial grade 3D printers globally,” said XYZprinting CEO, Simon Shen. “We believe that precision and speed are the name of the game in the world of 3D printing and are pulling all the stops to fast-track to market a disruptive photo-polymeric 3D printer that reimagines SL 3D printing as we know it.”
“This collaborative effort with our investors will change the face of 3D printing,” said Nexa3D executive Chairman, Avi Reichental. “This printer is powered by Nexa3D’s proprietary Lubricant Sublayer Photo-curing (LSPc) technology and a patented structured light matrix capable of reaching top speeds of 1 cm per minute, which can drastically cut down 3D printing cycles, from hours to minutes.”
“We are thrilled that OurCrowd’s most active early stage fund, Cognitiv is making affordable and fast industrial-grade 3D printing a reality thanks to this important partnership. OurCrowd is excited to invest alongside global leader XYZprinting to revolutionize the future of 3D printing and bring market access to the world,” said OurCrowd CEO Jon Medved.
Both companies expect to achieve full commercial status during the second half of 2018.
