amsight, a Hamburg-based software company focused on additive manufacturing data and quality management, and toolcraft announced a collaboration on May 21 to develop data-driven quality systems for semiconductor component production through industrial AM.
The partnership targets three areas: automation, traceability, and quality control for AM processes used in semiconductor manufacturing. Both companies frame the work as part of a shift toward scalable, production-ready additive manufacturing, where process data drives quality decisions rather than end-of-build inspection alone.
What's new here is pairing amsight's software platform, which centralizes AM process data for quality analysis, with toolcraft's AM production capabilities in semiconductor applications. The combination points toward a system where build data is captured and analyzed to verify quality across a production run, an approach that becomes more critical as AM moves from prototyping toward volume manufacturing in high-specification sectors.
No specific product name, timeline, or performance metrics were disclosed in the announcement. amsight has been building its AM software position since receiving a one-year EXIST startup grant in 2023, then securing pre-seed investment from five strategic investors in April 2025 to fund team expansion and product development. The toolcraft collaboration is the first publicly named industrial partnership disclosed since that round closed.
Industrial AM has been expanding into regulated sectors including medical and aerospace, but semiconductor applications carry additional requirements around process repeatability and data traceability for component qualification. Whether the amsight-toolcraft work yields a commercial product or a reference production workflow has not been disclosed.
