Business Wire
Prodways and CEA-Liten have just signed a partnership to develop
and optimize 3D printing technologies for industrial and biomedical
applications. By focusing R&D efforts on printing equipment and
processes, the partnership aims to develop new industrial
applications.
Serving the markets for photosensitive resins, technical
ceramics and metals, Prodways offers premium 3D printers and
materials for a wide range of industrial and biomedical
applications. As a major part of this market, Prodways seeks to
participate actively in the development of materials for 3D
printing and is thus working with CEA-Liten.
CEA-Liten's goal is to improve the performance of materials and
design new solutions that are economical, reliable and lightweight.
The solutions rely on multi-material systems and nanostructuring to
improve material properties.
With an R&D platform including a complete line of industrial
and semi-industrial equipment, CEA-Liten can carry out the entire
process of producing these materials from metallic, ceramic and
magnetic powders in a single building.
CEA-Liten now has a platform dedicated exclusively to 3D
printing to meet the new challenges.
The aim of the two-year partnership is to improve the properties
of materials used and optimize processes for design and cleaning of
polymer, ceramic and metal parts while protecting the
environment.
“By partnering with CEA-Liten, Prodways will rely on excellent
technological research to develop materials whose mechanical
properties are not yet possible with 3D printing. The partnership
is at the heart of our expertise and will enable us to imagine new
applications that are especially promising for industry,” explained
Philippe Laude, Prodways’ CEO.
“The expertise of Prodways provides the market with the best
technology at the most opportune time. By providing access to our
competences with materials and process, Liten is fulfilling its
role of innovation accelerator serving industry and will contribute
to making Prodways a leader in various segments of the booming 3D
printing market,” stated Florence Lambert, Director of
CEA-Liten.
