TORRANCE, Calif., July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Insolvency Services Group, as assignee for the benefit of creditors of 3DEO, Inc. under California law, announced it is soliciting offers for substantially all of 3DEO’s intellectual property assets (the “Assets”). The Assignee has received a stalking horse bid of $3,426,507 covering the IP portfolio and certain machinery and equipment, and has engaged Brian Testo Associates, LLC (the “Auctioneer”) to market the Assets. Qualified overbids are due August 12, 2026.
A Pioneer in Mass-Production Metal 3D Printing
3DEO was founded on the vision of becoming the premier metal 3D printing parts service, combining mass-production additive manufacturing with multidisciplinary design expertise. The company developed the award-winning Intelligent Layering®, a patented metal additive manufacturing process pairing binder jetting with layer-by-layer CNC milling to produce small, geometrically complex metal parts with tighter tolerances (±0.002″) and finer surface finish (100 Ra) than conventional binder jetting or laser powder bed fusion.
The Assets for sale represent a complete IP portfolio, including patents, trademarks, proprietary process know-how, trade secrets, software, and qualified materials data. The portfolio includes sintering profiles, shrinkage compensation models, and mechanical property data across four qualified alloys, and proprietary slicing and cutting-path software.
