MOVA AtomForm completes three funding rounds within one year of founding with Palette 300 launch

MOVA AtomForm, a Shenzhen-based startup, has successfully closed three rounds of financing within its first year of operation, including an A-round led by Cornerstone Capital and Junke Danmu. The company is transitioning from its robotics heritage to the consumer 3D printing market with the introduction of the Palette 300, an FDM-based system. This hardware features a proprietary OmniElement™ automatic nozzle switching system utilizing 12 independent nozzles to support up to 36 colors and 12 different material types. The company is currently scaling its global presence through Amazon, independent webstores, and B2B channels in Asia, Europe, and North America.

The company enters a high-growth segment where China's 3D printer exports reached 11.35 billion CNY in 2025, representing a 39.1% year-on-year increase. MOVA AtomForm is positioning itself against established Shenzhen-based players like Bambu Lab and Creality by targeting the high-end multi-color and multi-material niche. While competitors often focus on incremental speed or build volume improvements, this company is attempting to solve the material waste and switching latency issues inherent in multi-material FDM through hardware-level nozzle management. Their strategy involves integrating an AI-driven software ecosystem, AtomVerse, to automate slicing and model generation for non-expert users.

Success for the Palette 300 depends on the company's ability to maintain high manufacturing yields for the 12-nozzle assembly and the actual adoption rate of the AtomVerse software platform. The transition from a robotics-centric engineering team to a consumer hardware manufacturer requires proving that the 90% reduction in material waste claims hold up in long-term, high-volume production environments. Users should evaluate whether the increased color complexity justifies the potential maintenance requirements of a multi-nozzle system.
