Fluent Metal develops a liquid-metal, drop-on-demand 3D printing process that deposits molten metal drop by drop onto a substrate. The company says its laser-free approach reduces waste, increases efficiency, and enables high precision, adaptability, and compatibility with a broad spectrum of metals. It claims the system can switch between metals and adjust printing parameters on the fly, targeting industries from aerospace to medical devices. Fluent Metal emphasizes sustainability and positions its method as a greener alternative to conventional metal manufacturing. Peter Schmitt, former chief designer at Desktop Metal, founded Fluent Metal after splitting off in June 2020 and serves as CEO. The company emerged from stealth with venture capital backing and has disclosed $5.5 million in total funding.
