"I'm excited to take on this new role as CTO at Velo3D and I welcome the challenges that await me and my team as we work to advance our technology, deliver new products, meet the needs of our customers,” said Varlahanov. “Velo3D has always strived to be the best in the metal additive manufacturing industry, and I am confident my team and I will be able to continue that legacy.”

Prior to joining Velo3D, Varlahanov spent more than 17 years at GUZIK Technical Enterprises, which provides test solutions to the disk drive industry, as well as waveform acquisition tools for applications in avionics, signal intelligence, military electronics, physics, astronomy, and semiconductors. He has a Master of Science in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science from Novosibirsk State University. He also holds four patents, including two during his time at Velo3D.

About Velo3D:

Velo3D is a metal 3D printing technology company. 3D printing—also known as additive manufacturing (AM)—has a unique ability to improve the way high-value metal parts are built. However, legacy metal AM has been greatly limited in its capabilities since its invention almost 30 years ago. This has prevented the technology from being used to create the most valuable and impactful parts, restricting its use to specific niches where the limitations were acceptable.

Velo3D has overcome these limitations so engineers can design and print the parts they want. The company’s solution unlocks a wide breadth of design freedom and enables customers in space exploration, aviation, power generation, energy, and semiconductor to innovate the future in their respective industries. Using Velo3D, these customers can now build mission-critical metal parts that were previously impossible to manufacture. The fully integrated solution includes the Flow print preparation software, the Sapphire family of printers, and the Assure quality control system—all of which are powered by Velo3D’s Intelligent Fusion manufacturing process. The company delivered its first Sapphire system in 2018 and has been a strategic partner to innovators such as SpaceX, Honeywell, Honda, Chromalloy, and Lam Research. Velo3D has been named as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies for 2023. For more information, please visit Velo3D.com, or follow the company on LinkedIn or Twitter.
