#3DStartup: FUGO Precision 3D Develops Centrifugal AM System that Prints, Washes, and Cures In the Same Chamber

Imagine a 3D printer that handles the entire lifecycle of a part – from liquid resin to a fully cured product – without human intervention. That is the promise of FUGO Precision 3D. Based in California, FUGO has developed a fundamental advancement in the field: a centrifugal vat-photopolymerization system that replaces the multi-step workflows of the past. By spinning the build chamber at 3,000 RPM, the machine uses centrifugal force to ensure perfectly even resin distribution and a finish free of visible layer lines. This streamlined approach offers a massive build volume and superior surface quality, all while foregoing the need for messy manual labor. To learn how this all-in-one vessel is shrinking production times, we spoke with Co-Founder and CEO Alexander Meseonznik.

3DN: Could you introduce yourself and your connection to 3D printing?

Co-Founder and CEO Alexander Meseonznik

I’m Alexander Meseonznik, Co-Founder and CEO of FUGO Precision 3D. Over the past thirty years, I’ve built my career around identifying promising ventures and helping them scale. I’ve been fortunate to co-found and guide five companies through successful exits across multiple industries, developing expertise in the operational and strategic systems that turn early-stage concepts into thriving businesses.

My path to 3D printing began when I was introduced to Alexandr “Sasha” Shkolnik, our Chief Technology Officer. Sasha is an inventor with over three decades of experience in additive manufacturing and process engineering. When we first met, Sasha shared his vision for a completely novel approach to additive manufacturing that nobody else had achieved. He had the technical brilliance and the concept, but needed a partner who could help transform that idea into a real company. I recognized the extraordinary potential immediately and committed to making his vision a reality.
