We’re excited to announce that Azul 3D has been awarded a $1.36M Phase II contract by the U.S. Army to continue our work in advanced optical manufacturing.
New manufacturing capabilities and optical materials are critical to enabling the next generation of defense optics
Lens printing with HARP vs 3D printing? Layer-by-layer cant get you there. Every layer boundary is a diffraction grating. Clear ≠ optical

Excited to see our portfolio company, @azul3d featured by Chemical & Engineering News for its breakthrough work in 3D printing prescription eyeglass lenses.
Azul 3D’s technology has the potential to transform lens manufacturing by reducing waste, shortening lead times, and enabling more efficient, localized production.

Thanks to @ChicagoInno for a great event last night at the 2024 Fire Awards! We were proud to win top startup in the “Ember” category for early-stage startups. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners!
With continuous printing and thermal process control, OCEAN — the world’s largest and most productive area-wide 3D printing solution — offers a new avenue for polymer production.
From hydrogels to ceramics, the POND is a research-friendly platform for innovators looking to push the performance limits of additive manufacturing and define the next generation of materials and applications.
On the heels of launching our OCEAN printing platform, we have now released a small-scale 3D printing system called POND to enable faster and cost-effective material and application development. azul3d.com/pond
We have been busy here with the launch of our OCEAN printing platform, so we are especially excited this summer to have four smart interns helping us create the future of manufacturing!
Additive manufacturing has been hard to scale, hindering wide-scale adoption. Our new OCEAN platform shows the ability to do just that. A modular hardware system powered by our HARP technology enables speed and size with full thermal process control.

A great view to start the morning! We’ve been incredibly busy here at Azul 3D, and we can’t wait to show what we’ve been working on!
“In 2023, the global industrial metal and polymer additive manufacturing market size surged to €10.50 billion.” It is a great time to be a part of the future of manufacturing!
