Acoma invests in Adaptive3D, an American high-quality polymer resin start-up focused on additive manufacturing and development

Acoma leads the B-round financing of Adaptive3D, an innovative company that is a supplier of light polymeric resins for high-quality adders.
investment complements our expertise in the design of UV-cured liquid resin materials and our commitment to accelerate the development of 3D printing manufacturing technologies.
Adaptive3D provides solutions for soft and elastic end products with cutting-edge technology.
start-up sells light polymerization resins for tough, strain-resistant, tear-resistant rubber booster manufacturing.
Adaptive3D printable photo-curing resins are optimized for high-volume manufacturing of complex 3D plastics and rubber components in a wide range of markets, including consumer goods, healthcare, industry, transportation, and oil and gas.
through Shadoma's business activities and its pioneering N3xtDimension® series of advanced UV-cured liquid resins, Acoma and Adaptive3D have been successful in many technical and commercial developments.
through this announcement, the two sides aim to work with various endpoints of the material addition manufacturing ecosystem to provide large-scale market-leading material solutions, from new material development and large-scale specialty resin manufacturing to end-use functional components.
Akoma specializes in many other material technologies, such as light triggers and sulfur-based materials, and can further enhance the supply of Adaptive3D products with customized solutions.
through its investment in Adaptive3D, Akoma will usher in exciting opportunities and milestones in areas including footwear, healthcare, automotive and electronics.
customers and manufacturers benefit from specialty sustainable high-performance solutions developed by Akoma and Adaptive3D by maximizing the materials that meet market demand. W Voit, founder and CEO of
Adaptive3D, said: "To challenge the aging model of injection-molded rubber, Adaptive3D is currently expanding production and distribution to provide stable storage and printing of stable single-component estractive curing resins to produce high-quality finished parts that enable customers to topology and microstructure their polymer products to provide a sustainable competitive advantage. "Acoma is the world's leading supplier of specialty materials, providing sustainable, innovative solutions for manufacturing technologies based on Acoma's materials and now widely marketed, and Adaptive3D photo-curing resins are further technology to our customer-centric mission and open up new applications," said Sumeet Jain, Global Senior Director, 3D Printing,
