Overview
Massivit 3D Printing Technologies Ltd., commonly known as Massivit, is an Israeli additive-manufacturing company headquartered in Lod. It develops, manufactures, and sells very large-format 3D printers and the specialized materials used in those systems. Rather than concentrating primarily on small, highly detailed prototype parts, the company targets applications in which physical scale, rapid production, and the ability to create large tooling or display forms are central requirements. Its customer markets include transportation, aviation and aerospace, marine and boatbuilding, construction, furniture, entertainment, and other forms of industrial or scenic fabrication. The company was founded in 2013 by Gershon Miller, Igor Yakubov, and Moshe Uzan. Miller had previously founded Idanit Printing in 1994; that business was acquired by Scailex Corporation, formerly associated with Scitex, in 1998. Miller was also one of the founders of Objet, a 3D-printing company that later merged with Stratasys in 2012. This background helped connect Massivit with the development of industrial 3D-printing technologies and with the broader Israeli additive-manufacturing ecosystem. Massivit's first-generation systems use Dimengel, an acrylic-based plastic gel that is deposited and cured in successive layers under ultraviolet light. The approach is designed to produce large structures relatively quickly, including models, patterns, display elements, and other forms that would traditionally require substantial manual fabrication. The Massivit 1800, introduced in 2016, established the company's initial commercial platform. In 2021, Massivit introduced the Massivit 5000, an expanded system that supports simultaneous production of two separate parts and can use different materials in the two print jobs. This dual-material and dual-printing capability was intended to improve throughput and broaden the range of large-format production work that could be performed on one machine. The company's second-generation technology is represented by the Massivit 10000. This platform is aimed particularly at composite-material tooling rather than only at finished visual models. It can be used to produce molds, jigs, fixtures, mandrels, master tools, and related manufacturing aids for fiber-reinforced-plastic production. Its process combines a printed, removable outer shell with a thermoset epoxy casting material. The resulting tool is intended to be isotropic and can be produced with less manual intervention than conventional tooling methods. After casting, the outer shell is removed in water, leaving the usable mold or tool. The stated purpose of the process is to reduce tooling lead times, labor requirements, and material consumption. Massivit became a publicly traded company on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange in 2021, raising approximately $50 million through its initial public offering according to the cited reference material. Its investors have included institutional investors and strategic or industry-linked participants such as Stratasys and Yaskawa Electric Corporation, as well as other investment entities. The company has stated that its printers are sold in approximately 40 countries. Publicly identified senior leaders include chief executive officer Erez Zimerman, chairman Yaron Yechezkel, and chief business officer Avi Cohen. Massivit's current market position is that of a specialist supplier of large-format additive-manufacturing equipment, materials, and production workflows for industrial, composite, commercial, and creative applications.
History
Massivit was established in Israel in 2013 by Gershon Miller, Igor Yakubov, and Moshe Uzan. Its creation followed a lineage of Israeli printing and additive-manufacturing entrepreneurship associated with Miller. In 1994, Miller founded Idanit Printing, which was acquired by Scailex Corporation, formerly linked with Scitex, in 1998. He later became one of the founders of Objet in 1998. Objet merged with Stratasys in 2012, creating one of the major companies in industrial 3D printing. Massivit drew on this technical and commercial background while pursuing a different scale and application focus. The company's objective was to develop additive-manufacturing equipment capable of producing very large physical objects, models, and parts. Its initial technology used Dimengel, an acrylic-based gel deposited by print heads and hardened by ultraviolet light. This process allowed large structures to be built in layers without relying entirely on conventional molds, hand lay-up, machining, or other labor-intensive fabrication methods. The first commercial machine, the Massivit 1800, was launched in 2016. It was intended for markets such as transportation, entertainment, furniture, construction, and aviation, where customers may need large prototypes, patterns, display forms, or production aids. Massivit expanded the first-generation platform with the Massivit 5000, launched in 2021. The machine was presented as an improved version of the 1800 and added a dual-material operating method. Two distinct parts could be printed at the same time, potentially using different materials, providing a route to higher throughput and more flexible production planning. The launch broadened the company's proposition from a large-format demonstration technology toward a system for repeated industrial and commercial use. In 2021, Massivit completed an initial public offering and began trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange under the symbol MSVT. The cited reference states that the offering raised approximately $50 million. Investors and strategic participants identified in the reference material included institutional investors, Stratasys, Yaskawa Electric Corporation, and other investment entities. Publicly named board and management figures have included chief executive Erez Zimerman, chairman Yaron Yechezkel, chief business officer Avi Cohen, and board member David (Dadi) Perlmutter, a former Intel executive. Massivit subsequently developed a second-generation approach centered on composite-material tooling. The Massivit 10000, launched in May 2022, was designed to make molds, master tools, jigs, fixtures, mandrels, and similar tooling for fiber-reinforced-plastic manufacturing. Its process prints a removable outer shell and then fills that shell with a thermoset epoxy casting material. Once the casting has formed the tool, the external printed shell is immersed in water and breaks down, leaving the finished mold. The intended advantages are reduced manual labor, lower material use, shorter tooling cycles, and the ability to create large tooling geometries more quickly than traditional methods. The Massivit 10000 received recognition from the American Composites Manufacturers Association in the manufacturing category and from IBEX in the boatbuilding innovation category. The company has reported selling printers in approximately 40 countries. Its commercial scope spans transportation, aviation, marine production, construction, furniture, entertainment, and composite manufacturing. Massivit therefore occupies a specialized position within industrial 3D printing: it competes through scale, speed, and large-format tooling workflows rather than through the small-part precision associated with many conventional polymer or metal additive-manufacturing platforms.
