Freeform

Freeform builds artificial intelligence-native manufacturing systems designed to unify software, hardware, and physics for producing industrial-scale metal parts. The company approaches manufacturing as a single integrated system to support the production of complex hardware. Its technology architecture generates petabyte-scale data capturing the physics of metal printing, encompassing in-situ process signals, machine states, geometries, and material outcomes across factory nodes.

Freeform applies machine learning and artificial intelligence methods to production-scale metal additive manufacturing. Its research and engineering efforts focus on developing hybrid models that combine first-principles physics with data-driven learning using multi-modal in-situ sensor data. These machine learning models are integrated into closed-loop control and autonomy frameworks to predict thermal, mechanical, and geometric outcomes, supporting system stability, yield, and throughput across manufacturing nodes.
