MATTERHACKERS, INC.

MatterHackers, Inc. specializes in the design, integration, and supply of advanced industrial manufacturing systems, with deep expertise in 3D printing hardware, additive manufacturing peripherals, and precision engineering tools. The company delivers mission-critical components and systems including industrial-grade 3D printers, metal filament systems, hotend assemblies, and high-accuracy 3D scanning equipment such as the Artec Leo, tailored for defense and research applications. Their technical proficiency spans direct metal deposition, wire-fed printing, adaptive bed adhesion technologies, and CAD-integrated prototyping workflows, enabling rapid iteration for complex mechanical and robotic systems. MatterHackers differentiates itself through its ability to customize and modify commercial-grade manufacturing platforms to meet stringent government specifications, particularly for field-deployable, ruggedized, and mission-specific prototyping environments. The contractor maintains a strong, consistent relationship with the Department of Defense, providing specialized additive manufacturing and peripheral equipment to support R&D initiatives across multiple branches. Work includes supplying hardware for origami robotics, advanced prototyping labs, and field-deployable fabrication units. Additional engagements with DHS, HHS, and DOJ suggest broader adoption in laboratory instrumentation, forensic analysis tools, and secure manufacturing environments requiring traceable, high-fidelity output. MatterHackers operates primarily within industrial machinery manufacturing, with dominant focus on computer peripheral equipment and specialized 3D printing systems. Their market positioning centers on bridging commercial additive manufacturing innovation with government-grade reliability, serving defense, aerospace, and advanced materials research verticals. They enable rapid prototyping, end-use part production, and tooling development where traditional manufacturing is too slow or cost-prohibitive. As a privately held entity based in Lake Forest, California, MatterHackers, Inc. operates without federal certifications but maintains a focused government market presence through technical precision and responsive customization. Their geographic proximity to defense and tech hubs enhances their ability to support time-sensitive, high-accuracy manufacturing requirements for federal stakeholders.
