ADDMAN Group has officially integrated Keselowski Advanced Manufacturing (KAM) into its portfolio, creating the largest metal additive manufacturing service provider in North America. This strategic move significantly expands ADDMAN’s capabilities, offering unparalleled access to metal additive manufacturing processes across design, prototyping, and full-scale production.
The combined entity now operates over 50 metal additive machines across more than 300,000 square feet of manufacturing space, with KAM’s 70,000-square-foot facility in North Carolina playing a crucial role. Brad Keselowski, founder of KAM, will continue contributing as a commercial advisor to ADDMAN’s Board of Directors, ensuring seamless integration and fostering ongoing innovation.
We hold immense respect for the legacies of the companies we integrate into our fold. Brad and the exceptional team at KAM have built an impressive, profitable, and sustainable 3D printing enterprise in a remarkably short time. This is yet another proof point that ADDMAN is dedicated to assembling the industry’s finest under our banner. I look forward to seeing the new era of our combined company unfold.Joe Calmese, CEO, ADDMAN
Brad Keselowski, Founder of KAM, has been a strong advocate for this partnership, affirming, “ADDMAN’s integration marks a pivotal moment for the additive industry. Combining these companies brings a powerful combination with KAM’s world-class processes and systems, and ADDMAN’s abundant resources and R&D. Together, we set a new standard for innovation and excellence in the additive manufacturing industry.” Keselowski will remain deeply committed and invested in the operation’s success, ensuring a seamless transition and continued expansion.
KAM joins Castheon, ADDMAN’s metal additive research and production facility in Thousand Oaks, California. By combining the strengths of both locations, the teams will work together to provide enhanced solutions with industry-leading capability and lead times in refractory alloy production and material science. This collaboration ensures coast-to-coast support from engineering design to full-scale production, leveraging the expertise and capabilities of both facilities to deliver superior AM solutions.
KAM and ADDMAN both heavily serve the defense and commercial space markets, and uniting is a force multiplier in how the organization will support this sector. This strengthens their combined Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL) and Technology Readiness Level (TRL), enabling them to deliver advanced, market-ready solutions. Backed by American Industrial Partners (AIP), the combined entities are committed to driving transformative change through 3D printing, solidifying their leadership in providing innovative technologies to the defense industry.
