I still remember the first time I saw a 3D printer at work. It felt like magic — objects appearing layer by layer, as if from thin air. But also limited. Flat, rigid, constrained. Now? The game has changed. 🤖 6-axis robotics × 500°C extrusion × multi-angle precision. No longer just printing layers — but printing in curves, angles, and forms nature itself would approve of. 💡 Here’s what most people don’t realize: this isn’t about size or speed. It’s about geometry. Printing along force lines instead of grids. Eliminating wasteful supports. Creating parts stronger, lighter, and closer to the way bones or shells are formed. That shift is massive. It means lighter aircraft parts. Smarter prosthetics. Custom furniture. Even buildings grown instead of built. Props to Massive Dimension × ABB Robotics for pushing the frontier. And to Florian Palatini for sparking the thought 👏 👉 Question for you: if factories can now print like nature grows, which industry gets disrupted first? #3DPrinting #Innovation #FutureOfManufacturing #Robotics

Great to be there & congrats to @BRICvt on your #buildtoscale grant! From an @VermontCF perspective, this was so inspiring. It represented the intersection of mission investment (@MAMAVA @FreshTracksCap and @WorkingFields) and grantees like @BRICvt. #onward
In September ('21) #FriendofBRIC, Mamava, acquired a manufacturing facility in Springfield, Vermont. Last Friday, they recognized #NationalManufacturingDay with an open house with #BRICvt in attendance. #ruralinnovation #startups #vermont #springfieldvt mamava.com
