Driving Innovation Forward
When we maximize efficiency, you maximize output. That means you can operate smarter and achieve greater. That’s the next chapter of additive manufacturing.
We Are a Recognized Leader in 3D Printing Manufacturing
At Next Chapter Manufacturing, our story begins on the shop floor, where we first cut our teeth in mold design, moldmaking, and additive manufacturing. We’ve lived the same challenges our customers face today: fighting for tighter tolerances, faster cycle times, and better material performance. That’s why we launched Next Chapter, not to follow industry norms, but to redefine what’s possible in tooling and manufacturing.
Born from decades of real-world experience and a relentless desire to innovate, Next Chapter was created to deliver the most efficient, high-performance solutions possible. While advanced injection mold tooling remains our core, we’ve built a global reputation for our expertise in additive manufacturing, earning the trust of innovators in fields where performance can’t fail.
Today, our capabilities have expanded to meet the precision needs of surgical device manufacturers, the rigorous demands of defense contractors, and the evolving expectations of small-part production. At every step, we challenge convention. We’re not just experts, we’re students of the process, constantly learning, testing, and refining to stay ahead of what’s next.
Looking forward, our mission remains simple: solve the industry’s biggest problems with smarter solutions. We don’t chase customers. We chase excellence. We believe when we stay true to our values of curiosity, integrity, and relentless improvement, the right partners find us.
This isn’t just manufacturing. It’s building better ways forward.

Defense
Defense clients require solutions tailored to extreme conditions, high durability, and operational stealth, which many manufacturers can’t deliver. Next Chapter Manufacturing collaborates with contractors to provide customized, mission-ready solutions that exceed expectations.
Surgical
Surgical advancements require precision, durability, and innovation. We engineer cutting-edge medical components, including bone-integrated implants and high-performance surgical tools. By leveraging advanced additive manufacturing, we create lighter, stronger, and more efficient designs, radically reducing lead times and elevating surgical performance.
Automotive
Performance starts with precision. We redefine automotive tooling with conformal cooling and InnoVent solutions that produce higher performance molded components. Through improved durability, weight reduction, and repeatable precision, you can exceed the highest expectations of today’s automotive market.
“Next Chapter Manufacturing did an excellent job, provided our parts earlier than expected, and took care of additional design work to provide a better than expected conformal cool pin. We are glad we chose Next Chapter Manufacturing.”
