OM
THE REAL FUTURE of 3D PRINTING IS ROTATIONAL BUILDING.
OM is the inventor of
3D printing with rotation,
mirroring natural growth
patterns and inspired by
the golden ratio.
Our patented technology enables continuous spiral manufacturing that produces stronger parts, larger builds, and supports advanced materials including polymers, ceramics, and composite structures.
The result is a flexible manufacturing ecosystem designed to help modernize production, empowering leading companies to begin unlocking the full potential of additive manufacturing.
HOW IT WORKS
When we first announced OM in 2014, the world was just starting to understand the benefits of 3D printing.
Since the beginning, OM has stayed far ahead of the curve:
As 3D printing adoption increases, the manufacturing industry has been shifting toward rotational technology Powered by OM.
A NEW ARCHITECTURE FOR 3D PRINTING
Traditional 3D printing builds parts layer by layer. OM developed a rotational process that enables continuous spiral printing, allowing parts to grow along a helical path while material is dispensed and cured simultaneously.
This rotational method unlocks:
Faster production speeds
Larger part sizes
Improved structural integrity
Compatibility with high-viscosity advanced materials
The result is a scalable additive manufacturing platform designed for industrial environments.
OM ENABLES SCALABLE ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
Most additive manufacturing technologies struggle to scale from prototyping to real production.
OM technology was designed from the start as a platform capable of supporting large-scale additive manufacturing.
Our systems enable exponential increases in throughput and build area while maintaining precision and material performance.
CONFIGURABLE SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Different industries require different manufacturing solutions. OM printers are designed as configurable platforms that support multiple light engine technologies.
LCD exposure systems for cost-efficient production
DLP projection systems for high-resolution manufacturing
LED exposure arrays for large-format industrial printing
Inkjet material delivery systems for advanced multi-material applications
This flexibility enables manufacturers to deploy systems optimized for their production requirements.
DESIGNED AS AN UPGRADEABLE PLATFORM
Additive manufacturing technology continues to evolve.
OM systems are built as modular platforms that can improve over time.
Manufacturers can upgrade system components to expand build area, increase speed, and support new materials without replacing entire machines.
BUILT FOR ADVANCED MATERIALS
OM technology supports high-performance materials that many additive systems cannot process.
High-performance polymers
Ceramic materials
Composite resins
Fiber-reinforced materials
These capabilities enable applications across aerospace, defense, medical manufacturing, and industrial tooling.
OM Origins: Founded in 2013 by Kurt Dudley and Doug Farber, OM has spent more than a decade with a team of experts and advisors innovating advancements in rotational additive manufacturing, and building an elite patent portfolio to support it.
Today OM collaborates with industry partners to deploy this technology through licensing and strategic development programs.
OM’s rotational 3D printing process allows engineers and designers to mass produce end-use parts faster, and enables geometries that simply cannot be created with traditional manufacturing techniques.
THE FUTURE of 3D PRINTING, “POWERED BY OM”
CREATING PARTS AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT
OM’s patented rotational technology will power the
next generation of additive manufacturing
systems across multiple industries.
