XponentialWorks portfolio companies are breaking industry speed and cost barriers
FRANKFURT, Germany, Nov. 12, 2018 — (PRNewswire) — XponentialWorks, a venture, advisory and product development firm, announced today that it plans to demonstrate how its leading portfolio companies are breaking the barriers of generative design and additive manufacturing speed and performance at Formnext 2018. XponentialWorks specializes in seeding, scaling and transforming companies that are powered by exponential technologies such as artificial intelligence, digital manufacturing, 3D printing and robotics."We are proud to exhibit at Formnext the game-changing generative and additive manufacturing products and capabilities that our innovative Industry 4.0 partners have to offer," said Avi Reichental, Founder, Chairman and CEO, XponentialWorks.
XponentialWorks plans to demonstrate at Formnext the power of its unique ecosystem, comprised of startups and corporate clients, including Nexa3D, NXT Factory, and ParaMatters, whose technology will all be showcased on a concept vehicle by XponentialWorks partner Techniplas. All of these firms' technologies will be on display at the XponentialWorks booth, B01 - Hall 3 in the Frankfurt Messe. Media kit available here. See XponentialWorks in action here.
"Each and every one of our portfolio companies are committed to compressing the time and cost of a critical portion of the design to manufacturing cycle," said Reichental. "By colliding and funding young upstarts with industry veterans with access to mission-critical verticals like automotive, aerospace, dental and footwear, we serve as a catalyst and force-multiplier to deliver cost-effective, production-ready additive solutions."
XponentialWorks portfolio companies will showcase the following products and services:
- Nexa3D plans to exhibit how its LSPc technology is breaking the speed and size barrier for digital plastics with its NXE 400 ultra-fast Stereolithography production printer, the fastest, largest and most affordable production-grade 3D printer on the market. Printing continuously at up to 16 liters of build volume in a single build at a print speed of up to 1z cm per minute, the NXE 400 compresses printing time from hours to minutes. The NXE 400 comes with a wide range of production-grade, castable and dental materials. To learn more about Nexa3D's new products, visit

- NXT Factory plans to demonstrate how its QLS technology is delivering a high-speed polyamide additive molding solution, a disruptive and scalable alternative to traditional injection molding with full Industry 4.0 capabilities. The company plans to unveil at Formnext two new printers featuring production speeds up to four times faster than traditional systems. The QLS 250 comes with a removable build chamber for independent cool down and the QLS 350 is equipped with an autonomously guided build chamber for fully automated 24/7 operation.

- ParaMatters delivers the most powerful generative design software for traditional and additive manufacturing that works autonomously by leveraging proprietary machine learning and topology optimization. The company plans to launch its next generation CogniCAD solution; a cloud-based generative design platform, which compiles lightweight structures and meta-materials (lattices) on demand, while automating and shortening the design-to-manufacturing process. ParaMatters CogniCAD solution has a unique mesostructural design that achieves biomimicry by blending topology optimization with optimal porosity. To learn more about ParaMatters new products, visit

- Techniplas plans to unveil a unique concept vehicle that is packed with its most advanced lightweighting and additive manufacturing capabilities, including a tailing suspension arm boasting a 48 percent weight reduction, several tire rim designs, and seat backs. Additionally, the company will exhibit a first of its kind cognitively-lit sunroof that is programmable and designed to demonstrate how car surfaces are transitioning from core functionality into expanded human-to-machine interfaces. The concept vehicle exhibits the expanding capabilities of the company's Techniplas Prime proprietary e-manufacturing platform.
