New Capability: Metal 3D Printing
The metal 3D printing industry is exploding, and this breakthrough alone expands our target market by an additional $3B+. Here is some never-before seen footage of R3 Printer printing a custom-designed copper heat sink:

R3 Printer is not currently on the market but is expected to be available for purchase by end-of-year 2022.
3D printers are too expensive to run
Manual labor is the silent killer that keeps custom 3D-printed products priced out-of-reach.
Manufacturers operating 3D printers find themselves in a bind: cheap 3D printers require a lot of setup, manual labor, and expertise to run while enterprise-grade 3D printers are expensive and locked into overpriced proprietary materials that destroy margins.
The end result, no matter which type of 3D printer is used, is that the cost of 3D printing is just too high, so custom 3D-printed products are expensive - and priced out of the mainstream market.
Custom 3D-printed products are priced out of reach
The solution seems so simple: with enough 3D printers, one could build a business offering customized products that capture market share away from their mass-produced counterparts. But a look at the custom 3D-printed products on the market today quickly reveals the issue:
While it’s clear that there’s a demand for products that are custom-made to fit the buyer, the unexpected outcome is that these are premium products available only to those who can afford them.
Mass production isn’t personal
Manufacturing techniques like injection molding are the reason we have access to so many affordable products that make our lives comfortable and convenient. By standardizing the size and shape of a product and manufacturing it by the millions, the price becomes sufficiently low that most people can afford to buy it. That’s a win, right?
Think about it: does it make sense that an insole that provides arch support has the same amount of arch for everyone? Of course not. But the only way around this is to manufacture using a different technology that introduces a whole new problem: cost.
Until now...
Say hello to R3 Printer
R3 Printer is not currently on the market but is expected to be available for purchase by end-of-year 2022.
R3 Printer is the manufacturing workhorse that businesses have been waiting for.
It’s designed from the inside-out to be the ultimate platform for running a more profitable on-demand manufacturing service.
Radically re-engineered for performance
Patented innovations on multiple key components make R3 Printer a purpose-built powerhouse for manufacturing.
On-demand manufacturers operate 3D printers for a living, so we made sure that R3 Printer not only stands up to 24x7 duty cycles, but also outperforms current market offerings:
Unrestricted long-term value
R3 Printer is an unlocked product that gives our customers a competitive advantage:
With R3 Printer, manufacturers can print with cutting-edge materials (including metals and high-performance thermoplastics like PEEK) to serve customers they would otherwise be forced to turn away if they were locked into a competitor’s restricted material ecosystem.
For government agencies and businesses with strict security and software requirements, R3 Printer is the solution. Our customers have the power to disable cloud connectivity yet still retain access to all operations and monitoring features over a local, private network.
With R3 Printer, businesses get both long-term value and out-of-the-box functionality.
Lighter printhead = faster print speeds
You can’t beat the laws of physics: a lighter printhead can accelerate and decelerate faster than a heavy one.
In the case of R3 Printer, by shedding over 80% of the weight off the printhead, along with other optimizations, R3 Printer can achieve print speeds that are 90% faster than competing extrusion-based 3D printers.
Smaller printhead = larger print sizes
R3 Printer has a 200% larger build area than competing extrusion-based 3D printers, even though it has the same exact footprint:
A smaller printhead can utilize the full length and width of a printer’s internal volume. Unlike the competition, whose relatively large printers have very limited print sizes, R3 Printer can print parts almost as big as itself.
Active Overheat Prevention™ virtually eliminates jams
Active Overheat Prevention™ uses an additional sensor in the printhead to monitor heat absorption and trigger a pause in printing if a critical threshold is reached:
By virtually eliminating the need to repair thermally-induced printer failures, Active Overheat Prevention™ allows businesses to operate more 3D printers with the same staff, eliminating a major cost driver of 3D-printed products.

R3 Printer is not currently on the market but is expected to be available for purchase by end-of-year 2022.
Multibillion-dollar market
R3 Printing is addressing the $18 billion-dollar 3D printing industry, forecasted to surpass $115 billion in revenue by 2030:
Wohlers Associates, Wohlers Report “3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing State of the Industry” 2021
“We believe the 3D printing industry is currently standing at the precipice of unprecedented growth and is transforming the way products are made,” said Deep Nishar, senior managing partner at SoftBank Investment Advisers.
As 3D printing proves itself as a viable solution to a whole range of global challenges, companies are rapidly transitioning to 3D printing technology, resulting in the rapid expansion seen above.
Strong Historical Growth
With historical double-digit growth rates, the 3D printing industry has also proved itself to be a stable force, continuing to grow during the pandemic even though many other industries crumbled.
Not many industries are set to grow by nearly 10x in 10 years, but the 3D printing industry is one of those unique growth industries that we’re excited to be a part of:
The value of early-stage investments surpasses $10 billion
The 3D printing industry is a breeding ground for growth. In the first half of 2021 alone, the value of 3D printing companies that went public surpassed $10 billion.
“I am fully-convinced that [3D printing] will remain a very exciting and successful investment category, with much higher growth potential than other manufacturing technologies for the coming decades.”
- Managing Partner at AM Ventures

Patents
R3 Printing has 7 granted patents and 9 pending patent applications, up by 6 and 5 respectively since launching our last campaign, and we have no plans to stop: 7-10 more patent applications are expected to be filed by EoY.
In a rapidly-expanding field like 3D printing, investing in patents is essential to protecting the valuable R&D that goes into innovation and increasing the value of the company.
Obtaining a granted utility patent is a rigorous process and an incredible milestone - according to a US patent statistics chart, only about half of all patent applications received by the USPTO are granted, and R3 Printing is already beating the odds.
Our patents protect all of the core features and mechanisms that make our products the ultimate platform for additive manufacturing.
Other Intellectual Property
R3 Printing has 3 registered federal trademarks and 6 pending trademark applications to protect our products and our brand as the standard-bearer for on-demand manufacturing technology.
Branding is more than just a logo, it’s how people experience us and our business, and we know the importance of protecting it.
Testing Partners
R3 Printing is excited to be partnered with several companies that are eager to test the next generation of 3D printing technology.
In addition, we’ve expanded our portfolio to include larger institutions, recently securing partnerships with 3 major California universities, including two Top 10 schools for research and mechanical engineering, respectively. These universities are eager to give their students an edge with the most cutting-edge 3D printing technology.

State & Federal Grant Funding
R3 Printing is a proud recipient of a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) federal government grant, in partnership with AFWERX and the United States Air Force (USAF). We also secured MOUs (Memoranda of Understanding) from six different US Air Force bases, which signals a strong demand for R3 Printer’s capabilities from the USAF.
Government interest in 3D printing is consistently strong, and trending upward. Funding for 3D printing-related SBIR and STTR grants averaged $65 million per year from 2018 to 2020 and is only expected to grow as more government agencies turn towards 3D printing:
Source: SBIR.gov | SBIR & STTR Award Data
This reflects the scale at which all government agencies, including the Department of Energy, the Department of Health and Human Services, and NASA, are investing in cutting-edge 3D printing technology.
R3 Printing has also partnered with Defense Innovation Lab (DiLab) for a New York State-funded joint research and development initiative, funded by a Manufacturing Technology Assistance Grant (MTAG).
Note: The appearance of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) visual information does not imply or constitute DoD endorsement.
The partnership potential with the USAF and other public-sector entities represents part of a multibillion-dollar opportunity as governments around the world race to adopt additive manufacturing technology to save costs and increase operational readiness.
Oversubscribed Funding Rounds
With back-to-back overscribed equity crowdfunding campaigns, and over 6,000+ investors (and counting) from around the globe, R3 Printing is ready to disrupt a $18 billion-dollar industry and usher in a new era of customized products that are manufactured on-demand, just for you. Join us!
Incubators, Accelerators, and Venture Capital
R3 Printing is an OCEAN Accelerator portfolio company, a highly selective Cincinnati-based technology accelerator that only accepts up to 10 startups in its annual cohort and deploys seed-stage capital to each of its portfolio companies.
In addition, R3 Printing has had the pleasure to partner and grow with Futureworks - a hardware and advanced manufacturing incubator funded by the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC).
The R3 Printing Leadership Team are also alumni of Y Combinator’s Startup School program, of which less than 25% of participating companies graduated in 2019.
New Capability: Metal 3D Printing
When we say we designed a 3D printer for long-term value, we mean it. That’s why we’re very excited to announce that we’re implementing metal 3D printing capabilities into R3 Printer. Thanks to our most recent engineering innovations, we’re positioning ourselves to better serve the world of metal 3D printing, such as the automotive, aerospace, and defense industries that are leading the charge in adopting metal 3D printing applications.
Stainless steel and copper metal parts, printed on R3 Printer.
Many startups with metal 3D printing capabilities are fast becoming unicorns, with multi-billion dollar valuations. Desktop Metal (NYSE: DM) and Markforged (NYSE: MKFG) not only both went public recently, they are also buying up other startups for hundreds of millions of dollars. The metal 3D printing industry is exploding, and is expected to quadruple by 2028. And this is just the beginning.
This breakthrough alone expands our target market by an additional $3B+, and by offering manufacturers the ability to print metal parts in addition to all of our advanced polymer capabilities, R3 Printing is positioning itself to become the ultimate platform for advanced manufacturing.
Never-before-seen footage of R3 Printer printing a custom-designed copper heat sink.
R3 Printer is not currently on the market but is expected to be available for purchase by end-of-year 2022.
With R3 Printer, customers get both metal and polymer capabilities in the same machine - unlocking power and value that customers can only get elsewhere by buying separate, five-figure machines.
We know the importance of having a clearly-defined target market and a focused approach to capturing it. While our total addressable market includes all businesses and entities that use 3D printers as a key part of their operations, we’ve segmented our market capture strategy into three phases in order to maximize our market penetration:
By systematically entering and saturating a market segment before progressing to the next one, we operate efficiently and avoid wasting valuable resources pursuing high-lift relationships prematurely.
Government & Public Sector
In addition to the private sector, government agencies are also quickly ramping up their 3D printing capabilities to stay relevant, and represent a multi-billion dollar market in their own right. According to a recent research report, as re-shared by Yahoo Finance:
Just like our private-sector market capture strategy, we’ve segmented the public sector by treating each government agency as a separate market that can be systematically entered and captured before progressing to the next one.
With MOUs from 6 different US Air Force bases, R3 Printing already has its foot in the door:
Note: The appearance of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) visual information does not imply or constitute DoD endorsement.
This approach maximizes our effectiveness and allows us to efficiently win contracts and expand our footprint in this fast-growing market.
North American Market
North America leads the world in the adoption of 3D printing technology - over $3 billion dollars’ worth of 3D printers were sold globally in 2020, with over $1 billion sold in North America alone:
This opportunity, combined with minimized shipping costs and logistical overhead, makes North America the ideal initial target market prior to global expansion.
Our roadmap goes far beyond R3 Printer. We didn’t just design a better 3D printer, we developed a future-focused platform for the ultimate additive manufacturing ecosystem:
Future Products
R3 PrintGrid™ is the solution for customers with extreme manufacturing capacity needs. By stacking R3 Printer units vertically and connecting them to a shared liquid cooling and power delivery system, these customers can operate even more efficiently by manufacturing more parts per square foot in their factories than ever before.
Additional Revenue Streams
As we progress through the stages of our market capture strategy and pursue contracts with larger enterprises, we anticipate a need for features that go beyond what we would offer as a default level of functionality.
By structuring ourselves as a manufacturing platform, we’re creating a whole ecosystem of recurring revenue possibilities including advanced cloud features offered on a subscription basis, a materials ecosystem, and service plans.
These are just a few examples of the additional revenue streams available to a company that positions itself as the backbone of an entire industry.
We’re not the first to introduce a 3D printer to the market, but we are the first to introduce a 3D printer that’s purpose-built to maximize profitability.
R3 Printer is the only product that checks all the boxes for our target market:
Manufacturing businesses currently have three tiers of 3D printers to choose from, none of which are optimized for running a profitable business. With R3 Printer, businesses will no longer have to choose between functionality and profitability.
R3 Printing puts its customers first
Many of our competitors lock their customers into a proprietary material supply. This has major ramifications for the businesses that operate their 3D printers. Not only are the proprietary materials priced far above market rate, this limitation also prevents them from using experimental and cutting-edge materials from other suppliers, further hurting their businesses by limiting their addressable market.

⤷ Generic ABS 3D Printer Filament, 1kg Spool, $20.47 on Amazon as of February 2022
⤷ Proprietary 3D Printer Filament, 1kg Spool, $210.00 on GoEngineer as of February 2022
R3 Printing pledges to never lock its products to a particular material or software ecosystem. Instead, we plan on building additional streams of revenue by allowing our customers to opt-in to additional services and features that add value to their businesses, but they will never be forced to do so.
Market research shows that this is a key part of long-term customer retention, and we’re making it a big part of our strategy for capturing market share.
Things are heating up at R3 Printing: we’ve been expanding our team, tapping into new revenue streams, finalizing key components, and pushing new patents for approval, and pushing the limit with what’s possible by integrating metal and plastic 3D printing into the same machine.
With back-to-back oversubscribed equity crowdfunding campaigns, and over 6,000+ investors (and counting) from around the globe, R3 Printing is ready to disrupt a $18 billion-dollar industry and usher in a new era of customized products that are manufactured on-demand, just for you.

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
