Markforged, a company that makes industrial 3D printers, today announced that it has closed an $82 million Series D round. That's a hefty raise for a 3D printer company, and it signifies an important shift in additive manufacturing, long the sphere of prototyping and short run production, toward higher output and mass production.

"Markforged set out to change the pace of human innovation by enabling engineers, inventors and manufacturers to print industrial-grade parts at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods," says Greg Mark, CEO and co-founder.

But the space is going to get crowded quickly. Markforged's competitors include Formlabs, Desktop Metal, Fictiv, and MakerBot. Competition for the mass market manufacturing sector is only going to increase, moving the technology forward and driving prices down.
