AON3D has secured a new funding round led by Cycle Capital, with participation from Desjardins Capital and continued backing from existing investors SineWave Ventures, IronGate Capital Advisors, Starship Ventures, and EDC Capital.
The Montreal-based additive manufacturing company said the investment will support increased manufacturing capacity and accelerate the commercialization of its high-temperature industrial 3D printing platform, including Hylo, a sensor-driven, software-enhanced printer designed to produce high-performance parts. The company is positioning Hylo as an easy-to-use system that integrates with open-market materials, targeting customers seeking flexibility in material sourcing for advanced polymer applications.
AON3D also highlighted Basis, its machine-learning-driven software platform for managing, optimizing, and qualifying parts throughout the additive manufacturing process. The company said this approach is meant to simplify printing with open-market materials in high-performance polymers, helping customers qualify parts faster, move into higher-volume production with more confidence, and bring new applications to market more quickly.
AON3D, founded in 2015, said its hardware, software, and materials solutions are used by hundreds of businesses across more than 25 countries, including small companies, Fortune 500 manufacturers, and government agencies. The company’s backers framed the financing as support for broader adoption of additive manufacturing across aerospace, automotive, and other industrial production environments.
