 <p>Aerospace and defense technology company L3Harris Technologies has finished the design review for 45 mission payload radios and 40 CXK-1000 radios. This marks a step forward in providing space-based solutions in line with the Space Development Agency's national security goals.</p>
 <p>The radios, created as part of Lockheed Martin Space's Tranche 2 Transport Layer Beta contract with the SDA, cater to warfighting data for integrated broadcast system low-Earth orbit (LEO) and tactical communications. The CXK-1000 radios establish rapid Ka-band connections among satellites.</p>
 <p>The effort falls under the SDA’s Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture, which focuses on a military satellite network in LEO. L3Harris plans to launch four missile-tracking satellites in 2024, an additional 16 by 2025, and 18 infrared space vehicles under a new missile detection contract.</p>

 <p>Haber, an industrial AI automation startup, has raised USD 44 million in its Series C funding round. The funding was led by Creaegis, BEENEXT, and Accel, with USD 38 million received in equity and USD 6 million in debt. The funds will be used to expand Haber's operations in North America and establish a branch office in Chicago that includes an advanced R&amp;D lab. The startup also intends to hire more engineers, data scientists, industry specialists, and sales professionals.</p>
 <p>Not only does Haber plan expansion geographically, but it also wishes to diversify its offerings by moving into metals processing and the food and beverage industries. Haber, based in India, provides a variety of AI-driven automation solutions using their proprietary platform, eLIXA. This platform allows for real-time data collection from industrial facility sensors and smart devices, replacing traditional manual processes with robotic ones. This automation enables real-time process monitoring, which can improve manufacturing processes and increase efficiency.</p>

 <p>AML3D, an Australian industrial metal 3D printing firm, has set up its US headquarters and manufacturing hub in Stow, Ohio. The hub is fitted with an ARCEMY system capable of producing industrial-scale parts through metal 3D printing. Plans for installation of a second system are set for early 2025.</p>
 <p>The facility is running and is currently managing a project worth USD 1.46 million from the Tennessee Valley Authority. AML3D intends to infuse an added USD 7.7 million to boost the facility's capacity with potentially two more ARCEMY systems. This increase in capacity is geared towards satisfying heightened demands from the US Department of Defense, who are spending more on advanced manufacturing solutions for the US Navy's Submarine Industrial Base.</p>
 <p>The expansion is part of AML3D's US growth strategy, which has so far secured contracts worth over USD 10.3 million since the beginning of 2023. The US manufacturing hub will allow AML3D to partake in International Traffic in Arms Regulations and other defense contracts controlled by the US government.</p>
</div> <p><b>Analyst QuickTake:<br>
</b> AML3D has steadily been expanding its presence in the US since it first revealed its plans to build a new facility in Ohio during its USD 3.9 million fundraise in April. It raised a further AUD 30 million (USD 19.5 million) last month, which it earmarked to double the manufacturing capacity at this Ohio Technology Centre, which was not yet operational. Alongside these investments, the company has expanded its presence by securing US defense contracts with the <a href="https:<br>

 <p>3D Systems, a company involved in providing 3D printing solutions, has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Geomagic software portfolio. This portfolio will be sold to the Manufacturing Intelligence Division of Hexagon for a price of 123 million USD. The deal is scheduled to close in the first half of 2025.</p>
 <p>The Geomagic portfolio entails various software tools. These consist of Design X, Control X, Freeform, Wrap, and Geomagic for SolidWorks. With these tools, users can design digital models from physical objects, create from scratch, modify existing models, and carry out quality control inspections. All of these features make the software tools suitable for manufacturing purposes.</p>
 <p>Once this divestiture concludes, 3D Systems will turn its focus to its core software platforms. This includes platforms such as 3D Sprint, 3DXpert, and Oqton Industrial Manufacturing OS. The aim of this is to accelerate strategic software development and enhance AM capabilities. The company also hopes to leverage AI and machine learning capabilities to aid high-volume production environments and critical industrial applications.</p>

</div> <p><b>Analyst QuickTake:<br>
</b> Hexagon, which mainly operates in the manufacturing technology space, has been steadily expanding its portfolio of 3D-printing software products over the past year. This news comes less than a month after the company <a href="https:<br>
//sp-edge.com/updates/36399"> introduced Advanced Compensation technology </a> for metal 3D printing, which combines process simulation with geometry compensation to ensure large or complex metal parts distort into their intended shape during printing. It also marks the company's second acquisition in the space after CADS Additive, which it <a href="https:<br>
//hexagon.com/company/newsroom/press-releases/2023/hexagon-enhances-its-additive-manufacturing-solutions-with-the-acquisition-of-cads-additive"> acquired in June 2023 </a> . It leveraged the acquisition to integrate the latter's build preparation and support structure creation capabilities with its Simufact Additive process simulation software.</p>

 <p>Digital health company Noom has introduced oral medications for weight loss via its Noom Med program, starting with Metformin at a cost of USD 29 for the first month and then USD 89 per month in a three-month recurring subscription.</p>
 <p>Features of the program include one-on-one communication with clinicians, prescription services, asynchronous telehealth capabilities, care coordinators, patient community access, medication management, and educational information. Metformin is offered in a 500 mg daily tablet format and is delivered within a week after prescription approval.</p>
 <p>Noom's new initiative offers an option for patients who have an aversion to needles or have a lower body mass index than needed for GLP-1s. Noom suggests that combining medication with behavioral changes can boost early success indicators and support patients in maintaining long-term lifestyle changes. Noom is planning to make this service available to eligible Noom Weight members in Q1 2025.</p>
