The Precision Resource expansion will add two metal 3D printing facilities in California and Connecticut, with both expected to begin operating in the first quarter of 2027. The manufacturer and technology partner 3D Systems announced the groundbreaking on October 28, 2026.

Key Takeaways

  • The Huntington Beach facility is expected to double the site’s existing industrial additive manufacturing capacity.
  • The Shelton facility will be Precision Resource’s first additive manufacturing location there and can expand as demand grows.
  • The company also plans to add in-house heat treatment and expand complex machining.

Precision Resource expansion spans two coasts

The new Huntington Beach facility will be Precision Resource’s second additive manufacturing location there. In Shelton, Connecticut, the company is breaking ground on its first such location, with room for further expansion.

The sites will use 3D Systems’ metal additive manufacturing equipment and form a connected network serving commercial and defense customers. Precision Resource said it is also adding heat treatment and expanding machining, giving customers a more integrated route from a printed part to a finished component.

New printers build on an existing partnership

Precision Resource is adding 3D Systems’ DMP Flex 350 Triple metal printers to its existing fleet of DMP 350 systems. The companies did not disclose how many new machines will be installed.

The expansion follows a strategic partnership announced in July 2024, when Precision Resource said it was purchasing two DMP Flex 350 Dual printers for its Huntington Beach manufacturing workflow.

Next milestone

The next milestone is the planned start of operations at both facilities in the first quarter of 2027.
