On 27 May 2026, Stratasys signs to buy Markforged from Nano Dimension for $42.5M in cash, far below the $116M paid a year earlier. The deal completes the unwinding of Nano Dimension's consolidation attempt.
What changes
- Definitive all-cash agreement of $42.5M, closing expected in H2 2026.
- Markforged generated about $70M in revenue in 2025.
- Nano Dimension keeps the metal binder jetting line; the rest (hardware, software, materials, resellers) goes to Stratasys.
- Stratasys targets aerospace and defense uses with Markforged's continuous carbon fiber.
### Background On 27 May 2026, **Stratasys** signs a definitive agreement to buy **Markforged** from **Nano Dimension** for **$42.5M** in cash. A year earlier, Nano Dimension had paid $116M for the same company. ### Key facts - Closing expected in **H2 2026**, subject to regulatory approvals. - Markforged generated about **$70M** in revenue in 2025. - Nano Dimension keeps the **metal binder jetting** line; hardware, software, materials and the reseller network go to Stratasys. - Stratasys gains **continuous carbon fiber** technology and The Digital Forge platform, for tooling, fixtures and production parts in aerospace and defense. - Stratasys expects a positive EBITDA contribution within the first year. - Nano Dimension, which had failed in a hostile bid for Stratasys, had already shed Desktop Metal (bankrupt in July 2025) and its printed electronics business. ### Why it matters Markforged's value falling nearly threefold in a year illustrates the harsh correction in additive manufacturing. For industrial users, moving under an established player like Stratasys may reassure them about the future of the installed base. ### Takeaway Industrial 3D printing consolidation now happens around the incumbents, at bargain prices.
