Phase3D develops Fringe Inspection™, a proprietary, camera-based sensing system that delivers physics-based measurements for real-time quality assurance in metal additive manufacturing. Its approach emphasizes physics-based inspection rather than relying solely on AI, targeting applications with strict certification requirements such as aerospace and defense. The technology aims to reduce time and cost associated with post-build testing and part qualification by providing in-process assurance. Phase3D has validated its approach via $3.5 million in non-dilutive grants from the US Air Force, NASA and the US Navy. Commercially, the company recorded $4 million in revenue from 2023 to 2025 and has completed more than 25 paying deployments. Customers include Boeing, GE Aerospace, Lockheed Martin and NASA, demonstrating traction with major aerospace and defense firms.
