Machina Labs today announced it has closed a Series C financing totaling $124 million and the development of its first large-scale "Intelligent Factory."
Woven Capital, Toyota’s growth-stage venture arm, Lockheed Martin Ventures, Balerion Space Ventures, and Strategic Development Fund (SDF) invested in the round.
The company said a significant portion of the capital will be used to launch a 200,000-square-foot, production-ready facility that will house up to 50 RoboCraftsman cells and produce thousands of complex structural assemblies annually for defense and aerospace customers.
From missile structures to airframes, Machina Labs’ Intelligent Factory is designed to manufacture a range of metal structures without significant retooling or reconfiguration. The company said it will allow customers to move from digital design to production inside the same facility and compress timelines from months to days.
Machina Labs is actively supporting U.S. government and commercial programs where speed of production has become a strategic constraint. The company has secured contract awards from the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory and the U.S. Air Force Rapid Sustainment Office, and is working with a defense prime on metal structures production for missiles and hypersonics.
By integrating forming, machining, welding, and assembly into a single intelligent factory, Machina Labs said it is laying the groundwork for a future in which manufacturing capacity can be deployed, scaled and adapted as dynamically as software.
While defense remains a core focus, Machina Labs’ platform is dual-use, supporting commercial innovation alongside national security needs. The company continues to work closely with Toyota to develop production-quality automotive panels.
