BCN3D Spins Off into Standalone Company After Receiving $3 Million in Seed Funding https://ift.tt/2CDLEPY BCN3D put Barcelona on the map for 3D printing years ago. They have continued to be one of the main players in desktop offerings too, with IDEX 3D printing technology, and the initial offering of their Sigma, an FFF 3D printer allowing for dual color and multi-material production, along with a host of other features, and other hardware that has been added to their 3D printer lineup too. Continually growing (and sharing) in technical development, they also released the open source CAD files for their powerful Sigmax 3D printer last year. Now, they are an independent company, after raising $3 million in funding in a recent seed round with VC firms Accurafy4, JME VC and Victoria.
Notably, BCN3D emerged from Spain’s Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) as a program and spin-off from their technological center, CIM UPC—with Roger Uceda as CEO and then a company transition as Xavier M. Faneca took his place. Taking off as a standalone, the new BCN3D has been founded by the following members: Martinez Faneca (CEO), and the executive team including Roger Antunez, Pol Domenech, Marc Felis, Jose Antonio Ortega, Eric Pallares, and technology advisor, Roger Uceda.
Throughout the years, BCN3D has introduced multiple refinements and additions to their hardware series, as well as new materials. Continuing to lead with IDEX technology, known to double productivity in desktop 3D printing, they have recently sold over 5,000 3D printers through their global network of 60 distribution partners.
BCN3D 3D printers are used for industrial purposes such as:
Current and past BCN3D clients include industry leaders such as BMW, Samsung, Louis Vuitton, Nissan, NASA, HTC, and SEAT—or ALBA Synchrotron.
