Author’s Note As the CEO of IColor Cosmetics Forgecise, where we continuously push the boundaries of high-precision manufacturing, metal styling, and cosmetic metal-shaping tooling, I have witnessed firsthand the rapid evolution of digital factories. In 2026, the discussion around metal additive manufacturing (AM) has shifted. We are no longer asking if we can print a

1. Introduction: The Additive Realignment of 2026 The global additive manufacturing sector is undergoing a fundamental realignment. We are shifting rapidly from design-phase rapid prototyping to functional, low-to-medium-volume serial production. This structural shift drives substantial capital investment across major economic corridors. Governments and enterprise players are investing heavily in research and localization. Within this macro

Author: Felix Lee (CEO at Forgecise) Published: June 25, 2026 TL;DR I. Introduction: The Digital Transformation in Precision Casting The global manufacturing landscape is undergoing a structural transformation as digital workflows replace traditional, labor-intensive patternmaking and casting technologies. At the center of this industrial shift is the integration of the castable resin 3d printer within

1. Executive Summary: The Industrial Transition of Resin 3D Printing As manufacturing sectors demand tighter tolerances, faster time-to-market, and customized end-use parts, vat polymerization—commercially referred to as resin $3\text{D}$ printing—has matured into a dominant industrial process. Able to produce isotropic, high-resolution, and complex structures, it directly challenges traditional plastic injection molding. By employing specific wavelengths
