8.25 million euros for Headmade Materials

The company from Unterpleichfeld combines plastic 3D printing with powder metallurgy. Headmade Materials has now convinced a new investor with its technology.

Headmade Materials has completed a Series A financing round of around 2.5 million euros. AM Ventures participated as the lead investor, and the existing investor Btov Industrial Technologies Fund also invested again. At the end of 2021, the 3D printing company also secured funding of around 5.8 million euros from the European Union Innovation Council's EIC Accelerator Program. This means that a total of 8.25 million euros will now flow into Headmade Materials.

The company intends to use the capital to expand its production capacities and international sales. It also wants to further develop the 3D printing technology "Cold Metal Fusion". The process combines plastic 3D printing with powder metallurgy. In this way, Headmade Materials enables its customers to mass produce metal components.

"With decades of experience in industrial 3D printing, AM Ventures is the perfect addition for us. In addition, the cooperation with our existing investor Btov Industrial Technologies Fund has already worked excellently elsewhere in additive manufacturing," says Headmade Materials co-founder and Managing Director Christian Staudigel.

Together with Christian Fischer, Marius Geldner and Christian Fink, he founded Headmade Materials in 2019 out of the SKZ research institute near Würzburg. In the first financing round in 2020, the company received 1.4 million euros from Btov partners.
