Rize is unlocking industrial 3D printing for new markets with our patented APD (Augmented Polymer Deposition) technology that provides the world’s only means to efficiently 3D print injection molded-quality parts on demand in the office or lab.
Our deeply experienced team of former Z Corporation, Objet and Revit materials, hardware and software experts, with over 20 patents, is fulfilling an unmet need for an affordable, hassle-free and office-safe industrial 3D printing platform that can be used successfully across a wide variety of commercial applications, including production parts, tooling, fixtures and jigs and short-runs of customized end-use parts.
We are dedicated to putting an entirely safe, affordable and industrial-quality 3D printer, capable of producing injection molded-quality parts, in every engineer’s office.
Rize™ One is an industrial-class 3D printer that enables engineers to build manufacturing parts efficiently in the office or in the additive manufacturing lab. The world’s only zero post-processing 3D printer, Rize One reduces turnaround time by up to 100%, cuts costs, produces isotropic, watertight parts twice as strong as the nearest competitor and eliminates the need for materials, facilities and mess that have been obstacles to expanding usage of industrial 3D printers out of lab environments.
